Člen 48 Oznaka CE

1. Pregled

,
Člen 48 1.
Za oznako CE veljajo splošna načela iz člena 30 Uredbe (ES) št. 765/2008.
Člen 48 2.
Za visokotvegane sisteme UI, ki se zagotavljajo digitalno, se digitalna oznaka CE uporablja le, če je do nje mogoče enostavno dostopati prek vmesnika, prek katerega se dostopa do tega sistema, ali prek lahko dostopne strojno berljive kode ali drugega elektronskega sredstva.
Člen 48 3.
Oznaka CE se vidno, čitljivo in neizbrisno namesti na visokotvegane sisteme UI. Kadar to ni mogoče ali ni upravičeno zaradi značilnosti visokotveganega sistema UI, se oznaka namesti bodisi na embalažo ali na priloženo dokumentacijo.
Člen 48 4.
Kadar je to primerno, oznaki CE sledi identifikacijska številka priglašenega organa, odgovornega za postopke ugotavljanja skladnosti iz člena 43. Identifikacijsko številko priglašenega organa pritrdi organ sam ali pa jo na podlagi njegovih navodil pritrdi ponudnik ali njegov pooblaščeni zastopnik. Identifikacijska številka se navede tudi v promocijskem gradivu, v katerem je omenjeno, da visokotvegani sistem UI izpolnjuje zahteve za oznako CE.
Člen 48 5.
Kadar visokotvegane sisteme UI ureja drugo pravo Unije, ki prav tako določa namestitev oznake CE, se na tej oznaki navede, da visokotvegani sistem UI izpolnjuje tudi zahteve tega drugega 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.
