TISAX® –
At a Glance
TISAX (Trusted Information Security Assessment Exchange) is the information security standard developed by the automotive industry.
It is specifically aimed at manufacturers, suppliers, and service providers in the automotive sector and is designed to ensure a consistent level of security across the supply chain.
With a TISAX label, you can:
-
Provide evidence that your information security measures meet the requirements of the automotive industry
-
Strengthen trust with OEMs, suppliers, and partners
-
Secure and expand your market opportunities
TISAX is based on the VDA ISA catalog, which is aligned with the international standard ISO/IEC 27001 but includes additional industry-specific requirements.
The goal is to reliably protect sensitive information – such as design data, prototype information, or personal data – while at the same time establishing a standardized assessment and exchange process within the industry.
TISAX distinguishes between different assessment objectives, including:
-
General information security
-
Protection of prototypes and development data
-
Data protection in line with the GDPR
How does TISAX work?
The implementation of TISAX® is more than just an IT project – it covers all relevant business areas where sensitive information is processed. Its foundation is the VDA ISA catalog, which defines clear requirements for technical, organizational, and physical security measures.
Examples:
Registration with the ENX Association
Self-assessment based on the VDA ISA questionnaire
Assessment by an accredited audit provider
Obtaining the TISAX label with a defined validity period
Regular re-assessments to maintain the label
The path to the TISAX label
The implementation of a TISAX-compliant Information Security Management System typically follows these steps:
- Analysis of the current state and comparison with TISAX requirements
- Closing identified gaps through technical, organizational, and procedural measures
- Documentation and implementation of the necessary policies and procedures
- Training of relevant employees
- Employee awareness training
- Conducting an internal pre-audit
- Support throughout the external audit process
Typical Challenges
Many companies underestimate the scope of the TISAX requirements. Common stumbling blocks include:
-
Missing or incomplete documentation
-
Insufficient employee awareness
-
Gaps in the physical protection of sensitive data and materials
- Too little time allocated before the audit
With early planning and experienced consultants, these risks can be significantly reduced.
