TISAX: Trusted Information Security Assessment Exchange


Origin


TISAX (Trusted Information Security Assessment Exchange) was created by the ENX Association (European Network Exchange) in 2017 at the request of the German automotive industry, specifically the VDA (Verband der Automobilindustrie - German Association of the Automotive Industry). The certification was developed to address the automotive sector's need for a standardized, mutual recognition framework for information security assessments. It was created to reduce the burden of multiple audits on suppliers, as automotive manufacturers were each conducting their own security assessments of shared suppliers, leading to duplication and inefficiency.


Industry Importance


TISAX has become essential for companies working with the automotive industry, particularly in Europe, as many major manufacturers now require it from their suppliers and partners. The certification provides a trusted, industry-recognized validation of a company's information security practices, protecting sensitive data such as intellectual property, product designs, and business information. Its importance stems from the mutual recognition principle—once a company achieves TISAX certification, the results are shared across participating organizations, eliminating redundant audits and creating efficiency while maintaining high security standards. For suppliers, TISAX certification has become virtually mandatory to maintain or establish business relationships with automotive OEMs and tier-1 suppliers.
