TISAX (Trusted Information Security Assessment Exchange) is a certification framework specifically designed for the automotive industry. It was developed by the German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA) to ensure that companies in the automotive supply chain meet high standards of information security.
TISAX requires companies to reach at least maturity level 3 in each of the seven mandatory categories.
Maturity level 3 means that a standard process is consistently followed and integrated into the overall system. The relationships with other processes are documented, and suitable interfaces are created. There is clear evidence that this process has been used reliably and actively over a long time.
Each category has its own specific requirements, with Cybersecurity covering the control numbers from 5.1 to 5.3.4.
Learn more about each TISAX compliance category requirement here.
