What is TISAX® and why is it relevant?

TISAX® (Trusted Information Security Assessment Exchange) is a cross-company assessment and exchange procedure for information security in the automotive industry. Developed by the ENX Association in co-operation with the German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA), TISAX® ensures that all participants in the supply chain adhere to strict security standards.

Information security is crucial in today's connected world. For companies like Cofinity-X that operate in a highly regulated and technologically demanding sector, TISAX® is a vote of confidence. It shows customers and partners that Cofinity-X manages and protects their sensitive data securely. 

The path to TISAX® certification: Important steps and challenges

Development of an information security management system (ISMS)

Cofinity-X's first step was to implement a robust information security management system (ISMS) based on the ISO 27001 standard. The ISMS serves as a framework for systematically identifying, assessing and managing information security risks.

VDA-ISA catalogue of requirements

A key component of TISAX® certification is compliance with the VDA-ISA catalogue of requirements. This catalogue, which was developed by the German Association of the Automotive Industry, contains specific requirements that go beyond ISO 27001 and are tailored to the particular needs of the automotive industry.

The role of the ENX Association

The ENX Association acts as a governance organisation in the TISAX® process. It monitors compliance with the standards and ensures that the assessments are carried out properly. The ENX Association also operates the TISAX® online portal, through which certified companies can securely exchange their assessment results.
