Abstract

Precision farming equipment introduces interconnected technologies into the agricultural sector. The importance of agriculture to the industrial and national operations gives this technology a high value to individual and nation-state actors seeking to disrupt agricultural operations. This study aims to utilize a lab simulating the core components of an on-board precision farming machine to discover and analyze potential security vulnerabilities on these systems. Due to issues found during the project, no viable vulnerabilities were discovered or analyzed. A more robust lab should be utilized to find results that reflect an interconnected machine.
