SAE International and ISO, the International Organization for Standardization, announced in February 2020 the joint publication of a draft of a new Standard to address automotive cybersecurity engineering. The standard, ISO/SAE 21434, is designed to help industry define a structured process to ensure cybersecurity is incorporated into the design of road vehicles, including their components, subsystems, software and connections to external devices and networks.
The project marks the first major collaboration between the two standards development organizations (SDOs). For this effort, SAE and ISO assembled a joint working group of more than 100 experts from 14 nations and 82 industry organizations across public, private and government sectors. SAE's Vehicle Cybersecurity Systems Engineering Committee and the ISO Technical Committee 22, Sub-committee 32 and Working Group 11 were heavily involved throughout development.
