Many suppliers and service providers in the automotive industry process highly
sensitive information from their clients. Given this, their clients regularly request
evidence of compliance with stringent information security requirements.
German Association of the Automotive Industry VDA (Verband der
Automobilindustrie) developed an information security assessment (ISA) as a
catalogue of criteria for assessing information security.
The VDA ISA is based on the ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and ISO/IEC 27002:2022 standards
adapted to the automotive industry.
In 2017, the VDA assessment was updated to cover controls for the use of cloud
services VDA member companies used the ISA for internal security assessments and
for assessments of suppliers, service providers, and other partners that process
sensitive information on their behalf.
However, because these evaluations were handled individually by each company,
they created a burden on partners and duplicated efforts on the part of VDA
members to help streamline security evaluations, VDA set up TISAX, which is used by
European automotive companies to provide a common information security
assessment for internal analysis, evaluation of suppliers, and information exchange.
The European Network Exchange (ENX) Association is responsible for TISAX
implementation - it accredits auditors, maintains the accreditation criteria and
assessment requirements, and monitors the quality of implementation and
assessment results
