Case Study: Kontron Europe GmbH achieves CRA compliance and improved code quality with Qt Group’s Axivion

Kontron achieves 100% CRA readiness with Qt Group's Axivion

Kontron Europe GmbH, a global leader in smart IoT solutions, needed to ensure compliance with the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and the IEC 62443 standard. The challenge involved finding a static code analysis tool that met specific requirements, including an on-premises solution, support for the Tianocore EDK2 rule set, and a "Made in EU" pedigree. After extensive research, Kontron chose the Axivion Suite from Qt Group as the only solution that fulfilled all their criteria.

With support from Qt Group experts, Kontron successfully integrated the Axivion static analysis tool into their development environment. This integration not only achieved the primary goal of CRA and IEC 62443 compliance but also significantly improved code quality, making it cleaner and easier to maintain. The team plans to expand the use of Axivion across other departments, encouraged by the positive impact on their software development process.
