Overview

oSIST prEN 304 619 V1.0.0:2026, developed by SIST and harmonized by ETSI, defines the cybersecurity requirements for software products that search for, remove, or quarantine malicious software, including antivirus and antimalware solutions. This standard addresses technical and organizational measures to strengthen the protection against cyber threats, ensuring software handling threats operates securely and complies with the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) and relevant European Union regulations.

The scope includes all software that detects, neutralizes, or isolates malware, with direct implications for software developers, vendors, integrators, and security professionals seeking compliance with European cybersecurity mandates.

Key Topics

• Cybersecurity Requirements: Details essential security characteristics for antimalware and antivirus solutions, covering threat detection, removal, and quarantine functionalities.
• Risk and Threat Analysis: Outlines methodologies to identify and mitigate risks such as vulnerabilities in updates, supply chain threats, core component exploits, and communication security.
• Operational Contexts and Use Cases: Maps varied operational scenarios from limited to critical impact, recommending appropriate levels of protection for different environments.
• Technical Controls: Specifies direct product requirements, including:
  • Secure default configurations
  • Regular security updates and patch management
  • Authentication and access control
  • Data confidentiality, integrity, and minimization
  • Availability and resilience
  • Attack surface reduction and exploit mitigation
  • Monitoring and audit trails
  • Factory reset and data portability
• Assessment and Compliance: Provides guidelines for demonstrating adherence to the standard via structured assessment criteria.
• Cryptographic Requirements: Specifies requirements for cryptography and crypto agility, ensuring resilience against evolving cryptographic threats.
• Interoperability and Integration: Addresses security for software that integrates with third-party products or remote detection and protection services (RDPS).

Applications

Organizations and stakeholders can apply oSIST prEN 304 619 V1.0.0:2026 to:

• Product Development: Guide the secure design and implementation of antimalware, antivirus, and endpoint protection software, focusing on minimizing exploitable vulnerabilities and ensuring robust protection mechanisms.
• Compliance and Regulatory Alignment: Meet EU cybersecurity regulations, such as the Cyber Resilience Act, by adopting standardized security requirements and assessment processes.
• Procurement and Vendor Assurance: Evaluate and compare security profiles of security software prior to purchase or integration, supporting transparent supplier relationships.
• Risk Management: Conduct threat and risk analysis for operational environments, mapping recommended security controls to expected threat levels and impact contexts-critical for regulated sectors such as finance, healthcare, or energy.
• Security Auditing and Certification: Use standardized assessment criteria to audit security software, facilitate certification, and drive continuous improvement in cybersecurity practices.

Related Standards

• ETSI EN 303 645: Cybersecurity for consumer IoT devices, offering related guidance on product security.
• EN ISO/IEC 27001: Information security management systems, framework for overarching organizational security controls.
• EN ISO/IEC 15408 (Common Criteria): International standard for IT security evaluation, referenced for security functional requirements.
• EU Regulation 2024/2847 (Cyber Resilience Act): Sets the essential cybersecurity requirements for products with digital elements in the European Union.
• ISO/IEC 29147 and ISO/IEC 30111: Standards for vulnerability disclosure and security incident handling processes.
