Članak 48. Oznaka CE

,
Članak 48. 1.
Za oznaku CE vrijede opća načela utvrđena u članku 30. Uredbe (EZ) br. 765/2008.
Članak 48. 2.
Za visokorizične UI sustave koji se pružaju digitalno digitalna oznaka CE upotrebljava se samo ako joj se može lako pristupiti preko sučelja s kojeg se pristupa tom sustavu ili s pomoću lako dostupnog strojno čitljivog koda ili drugih elektroničkih sredstava.
Članak 48. 3.
Oznaka CE stavlja se na visokorizične UI sustave tako da bude vidljiva, čitka i neizbrisiva. Ako to zbog prirode visokorizičnog UI sustava nije moguće ili nije opravdano, oznaka CE stavlja se na pakiranje ili na popratnu dokumentaciju, ovisno o slučaju.
Članak 48. 4.
Ako je primjenjivo, uz oznaku CE navodi se identifikacijski broj prijavljenog tijela odgovornog za postupke ocjenjivanja sukladnosti iz članka 43. Identifikacijski broj prijavljenog tijela stavlja sâmo prijavljeno tijelo ili ga prema njegovim uputama stavlja dobavljač ili dobavljačev ovlašteni zastupnik. Taj identifikacijski broj navodi se i u svim promotivnim materijalima u kojima se navodi da dotični visokorizični UI sustav ispunjava zahtjeve u pogledu oznake CE.
Članak 48. 5.
Ako visokorizični UI sustavi podliježu drugom pravu Unije kojim se također predviđa stavljanje oznake CE, na oznaci CE navodi se da visokorizični UI sustav ispunjava i zahtjeve iz tog drugog prava.

SCF Product Conformity Governance

Description

Mechanisms exist to ensure developed Technology Assets, Applications and/or Services (TAAS) conform to applicable statutory and regulatory requirements, based on the product's and/or service's:
(1) Use case(s); and
(2) Geographic markets.

Possible Solutions & Considerations

Micro-Small Business (<10 staff) / BLS Firm Size Classes 1-2

∙ Identify laws/regulations applicable to any developed products (e.g., privacy, accessibility)

Small Business (10-49 staff) / BLS Firm Size Classes 3-4

∙ Regulatory requirements checklist for product development
∙ Legal review before release

Medium Business (50-249 staff) / BLS Firm Size Classes 5-6

∙ Product compliance requirements defined at project start
∙ Compliance validation before release
∙ Regulatory conformity records

Large Business (250-999 staff) / BLS Firm Size Classes 7-8

∙ Product conformity governance program (statutory, regulatory, certification requirements)
∙ Compliance gates in release management
∙ Conformity documentation (e.g., declarations of conformity)

Enterprise (> 1,000 staff) / BLS Firm Size Class 9

∙ Enterprise product compliance program covering statutory/regulatory conformity (e.g., EU CRA, FDA, UL 2900)
∙ Regulatory affairs and product security integration
∙ Conformity assessment and certification management

SCR-CMM

Level 0 Not Performed

Practices are non-existent, based on the inability to demonstrate an implemented and operational capability. A reasonable person would conclude the control is not being performed.

Level 1 Performed Informally

SCR-CMM Level 1 criteria definitions are not available for this control:
▪ A reasonable person would conclude this control requires a structured process.
▪ At this level of maturity, the "ad hoc" nature of performing a capability informally would indicate the intent of the control is not met due to a lack of consistency and formality.

Level 2 Planned Tracked

Technology Development & Acquisition (TDA) capabilities are requirements-driven, but are not standardized across the entity (e.g., local/regional level consistency). Capability criteria associated with this control reasonably expect the following criteria to exist:
▪ Policies and standards associated with TDA domain capabilities are formally documented and centrally-managed by the entity.
▪ Standardized Operating Procedures (SOP) associated with TDA domain capabilities are documented and maintained by process owners.
▪ IT and/or cybersecurity personnel work with business stakeholders and process owners to appropriately scope and reasonably implement cybersecurity and data protection controls associated with TDA domain capabilities to address applicable statutory, regulatory and/or contractual requirements for Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD).
▪ Technology development and acquisition-related controls are primarily administrative and preventative in nature (e.g., policies, standards and procedures & guidelines).
▪ Technology development and acquisition management may be a defined function (e.g., team or department) or assigned as an additional duty to existing IT and/or cybersecurity personnel.
▪ Secure development practices mostly conform to industry-recognized standards for secure engineering of Technology Assets, Applications and/or Services (TAAS) (e.g., OWASP, NIST SP 800-218 and NIST SP 800-160).
▪ An application development team, or similar function, uses a structured process to design, build and maintain secure configurations for test, development, staging and production environments.

Level 3 Well Defined

Technology Development & Acquisition (TDA) capabilities are standardized across the entity for applicability to People, Processes, Technologies, Data and/or Facilities (PPTDF) to ensure consistency for Technology Assets, Applications, Services and/or Data (TAASD). Capability criteria associated with this control reasonably expect the following criteria to exist:
▪ Policies and standards associated with TDA domain capabilities are formally documented and centrally-managed by the entity's Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) team, or similar function.
▪ Standardized Operating Procedures (SOP) associated with TDA domain capabilities are well-documented and kept current by process owners.
▪ A software development team, or similar function, is appropriately staffed and supported to implement and maintain TDA domain capabilities.
▪ Technology is leveraged to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of technology development and acquisition management (e.g., project management software, software escrow solution and software testing tools).
▪ The entity's Governance, Risk & Compliance (GRC) team, or similar function, works with business stakeholders and process owners to appropriately scope and reasonably implement cybersecurity and data protection controls associated with TDA domain capabilities to address Minimum Compliance Requirements (MCR) (e.g., applicable statutory, regulatory and/or contractual requirements) and Discretionary Security Requirements (DSR) (e.g., entity-required controls).
▪ An implemented and operational capability exists to ensure developed Technology Assets, Applications and/or Services (TAAS) conform to applicable statutory and regulatory requirements, based on the product's and/or service's:
(1) Use case(s); and
(2) Geographic markets.

Level 4 Quantitatively Controlled

Utilize SCR-CMM Level 3 criteria definitions:
▪ There are no defined Level 4 criteria, since it is reasonable to assume a quantitatively-controlled process is not necessary to operationalize this control.
▪ While it may be possible to develop “metrics-driven” capabilities for this control, the criteria would be organization-specific to define.

Level 5 Continuously Improving

Utilize SCR-CMM Level 3 or Level 4 (if available) criteria definitions:
▪ There are no defined Level 5 criteria, since it is reasonable to assume a continuously-improving process is not necessary to operationalize this control.
▪ Level 5 capabilities should be considered “world-class” where the control builds on Level 4 capabilities, but are continuously improving through Artificial Intelligence (AI) and/or Machine Learning (ML) technologies.
▪ While it may be possible to develop responsive capabilities for this control through the use of AI and/or ML technologies, the criteria would be organization-specific to define.
