Splunk Becomes a TISAX Participant

Co-author: Matthias Maier,
Product Marketing Director at Splunk.

With increasing focus on implementing security standards within the digital supply chain, national and industry-specific certifications have become increasingly important.

Today, we are excited to announce that Splunk Services Germany GmbH has become a TISAX participant. The alignment with TISAX requirements demonstrates Splunk’s continued commitment to support the heightened security expectations in the automotive industry. Splunk automotive customers can run their data with confidence in Splunk’s Data Platform for the Automotive World.

What is TISAX (Trusted Information Security Assessment Exchange)?

Trusted Information Security Assessment Exchange (TISAX) is an assessment and exchange mechanism for information security in the automotive industry. The TISAX label confirms that a company’s information security management system complies with defined security levels and allows sharing of assessment results across a designated platform operated by the ENX Association.

To meet the information security needs of the automotive industry, the German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA) established a set of widely accepted security requirements and outlined these in a catalog known as the VDA Information Security Assessment (ISA).

Why is TISAX so Important for the Automotive Industry?

TISAX is of great importance to the automotive industry, as it relies heavily on collaboration within the wide landscape of suppliers, OEMs, and partners that contribute to the automobile supply chain. Key market developments such as connected cars, a​​utonomous driving and new types of production are leading to an increased need for information security in the automotive industry. To ensure that sensitive data is protected, the entire automotive supply chain needs to embrace the same high information security standards. As such, OEMs are asking their respective suppliers to be TISAX compliant, which then leads to these suppliers passing on the requirements to their suppliers and partners and so on.

Once a company has been assessed according to TISAX, its business partners can review the results in the ENX sharing and exchange portal. As a result, TISAX helps to increase information security in the automotive industry and strengthen trust in the supply chain.
