Overview

The prEN ISO 24882 standard, titled Agricultural machinery, tractors, and earth-moving machinery - Product cybersecurity (ISO/DIS 24882:2025), is an essential framework developed by CEN to address cybersecurity risks in modern agricultural and earth-moving machines. This standard specifies engineering requirements for cybersecurity risk assessment throughout the entire lifecycle of electrical and electronic (E/E) systems. Covered phases include concept design, product development, production, operation, maintenance, and decommissioning.

By defining a common language and structured processes for managing cybersecurity risks, prEN ISO 24882 aims to enhance the resilience and security of agricultural machinery, tractors, and earth-moving equipment against cyber threats. The standard ensures manufacturers and stakeholders adopt systematic and practical approaches to protect critical machinery components and interfaces from vulnerabilities.

Key Topics

• Cybersecurity Risk Assessment Framework: Establishes clear guidance on identifying system boundaries, assets, threat scenarios, and risk ratings specific to agricultural and earth-moving machinery.
• Lifecycle Coverage: Addresses cybersecurity considerations from initial concept phases through to decommissioning, supporting long-term security assurance.
• System of Interest Identification: Defines methods to specify the scope and environment of machinery E/E systems for comprehensive risk evaluation.
• Threat and Impact Analysis: Provides systematic steps to recognize potential cyber threats and assess their consequences on safety, functionality, and data integrity.
• Risk Treatment Decisions: Supports decision-making processes for implementing mitigation measures based on risk severity and likelihood ratings.
• Technical Cybersecurity Requirements: Includes secure software update protocols, integrity and authenticity checks, and secure configuration (hardening) methods to reduce attack surfaces.
• Verification and Validation: Specifies criteria for checking compliance with cybersecurity requirements to ensure continuous security effectiveness.

Applications

prEN ISO 24882 serves as a critical reference for manufacturers, product developers, safety assessors, and maintenance teams within the agricultural and construction machinery industries. Practical applications include:

• Design and Development: Embedding cybersecurity risk management into product design processes to preemptively address vulnerabilities.
• Production and Configuration: Ensuring secure manufacturing and setup of tractor and earth-moving equipment with hardened system configurations.
• Operation and Maintenance: Applying secure software update mechanisms and verifying software integrity to prevent unauthorized access or tampering.
• Incident Response and Decommissioning: Establishing procedures to mitigate cyber risks during equipment use and safe disposal, protecting data and system assets.
• Regulatory Compliance: Assisting organizations in meeting national and international cybersecurity regulations and standards for agricultural machinery.
• Supply Chain Security: Enhancing communication between stakeholders through a common cybersecurity language to manage risks across component suppliers and service providers.

Related Standards

Organizations implementing prEN ISO 24882 may also consider the following complementary standards to strengthen their cybersecurity posture:

• ISO/IEC 27001: Information security management systems, offering foundational governance controls relevant for managing cyber risks.
• ISO 25119: Safety-related parts of control systems for agricultural and forestry machinery ensuring functional safety alongside cybersecurity.
• ISO/SAE 21434: Cybersecurity for road vehicles, applicable to off-road agricultural vehicles with overlapping cybersecurity concerns.
• NIST Cybersecurity Framework: A risk-based approach widely adopted internationally for managing cybersecurity.
• IEC 62443: Security for industrial automation and control systems, useful for integrating cybersecurity in manufacturing and operational technologies.

---

By adopting prEN ISO 24882, stakeholders in agricultural and earth-moving machinery industries can systematically reduce cybersecurity vulnerabilities, protect critical assets, and enhance operational continuity. This proactive approach to product cybersecurity is vital in an era of increasing digitalization and connectivity within agricultural operations.
