- BSI is introducing a new procedure allowing certified software to stay compliant after updates without recertification by certifying development processes under TR-03185.
- The focus shifts from recertifying each software version to ensuring secure and quality-assured development and change processes.
- Certification under TR-03185 is valid for three years, maintained by annual audits, and removes the need for re-certifications or update notifications.
- The pilot starts in February 2026 for health apps, with plans to expand to other guidelines; certification is optional but offers faster releases, less admin work, and demonstrates secure practices.
- More information will be available on the BSI website; inquiries can be sent to [email protected].
