The Trusted Information Security Assessment Exchange (TISAX®) provides its members with a standardized system for monitoring information security in the automotive industry.
BENEFITS OF TISAX® EVALUATION

- As a standard designed specifically for the automotive industry, TISAX® represents recognition and a pledge of trust between the various stakeholders in the automotive sector.

WHY TISAX®?
TISAX® evaluation is an automotive evaluation standard developed at the joint initiative of ENX (European Network Exchange) and the VDA (Union of the German Automotive Industry). The automotive sector is a very high value-added economy, based on the sharing of confidential information between several partners. Protecting information systems is therefore imperative.
Based on an information security management system similar to ISO 27001, TISAX® is tailored to the requirements of the automotive industry. This multi-level assessment provides a level of granularity and specialization that ISO 27001 cannot guarantee.
