Trusted Information Security Assessment Exchange for automotive

TISAX

Trusted Information Security Assessment Exchange (TISAX) is the automotive-industry information security assessment and exchange mechanism governed by the ENX Association and based on the VDA ISA catalogue. It covers information security, prototype protection, and data protection for organizations in the automotive supply chain. For suppliers and partners operating on AWS, Azure, GCP, or OCI, TISAX requires demonstrable information security controls aligned to the VDA ISA. Cloudanix continuously validates the underlying cloud controls and helps organizations prepare for and maintain TISAX assessments.

Understanding TISAX Requirements

TISAX, based on the VDA ISA catalogue, assesses information security, prototype protection, and data protection across the automotive supply chain. Cloudanix maps its underlying security controls to continuous checks across AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI.

Just-In-Time Access for TISAX

TISAX expects access to sensitive systems and data to be controlled, least-privileged, and auditable. Standing administrative privileges are a common source of risk and audit findings. Cloudanix Just-In-Time (JIT) access provides time-bound, temporary privileged access across AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI. JIT eliminates standing admin rights, enforces approval workflows before access is granted, maintains a complete audit trail of who accessed what and when, and automatically revokes access when the task is done — directly supporting TISAX's access-control expectations.

Database Activity Monitoring (DAM) for TISAX

TISAX requires organizations to protect sensitive data and to detect and respond to unauthorized access. Visibility into database activity is central to meeting that expectation. Cloudanix DAM monitors database access in real time across AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI data stores. It detects unauthorized or anomalous queries, maintains detailed audit logs of data access, and raises alerts that help teams investigate and respond within the timelines TISAX expects.

Identity and Access Governance for TISAX

TISAX expects that only authorized identities can reach sensitive systems and that access is limited to what each role needs. Modern cloud estates contain thousands of human and non-human identities. Cloudanix provides identity governance across AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI that inventories every identity, detects excessive or unused permissions, enforces least privilege, and tracks both human users and non-human identities such as service accounts, API keys, and workload identities — helping enforce the segregation of duties TISAX requires.

Cloud Security Posture and Misconfiguration Management

TISAX calls for secure configuration and technical safeguards to protect systems and data. Misconfigurations are a leading cause of breaches and audit findings. Cloudanix continuously scans AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI for security misconfigurations relevant to TISAX — publicly exposed storage, unencrypted data stores, weak access controls, and disabled logging. Automated detection and guided remediation help organizations close gaps quickly and maintain a defensible posture.

Workload and Runtime Security

TISAX expects appropriate security throughout the lifecycle of the systems that process sensitive data. Cloud workloads — applications, containers, serverless functions, and virtual machines — must be secured accordingly. Cloudanix secures workloads across AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI through vulnerability detection, runtime monitoring, configuration compliance, and network segmentation checks, helping organizations meet TISAX's expectations for protecting systems in operation.

Software Supply Chain Visibility (SBOM)

TISAX increasingly expects organizations to understand and manage risk from third-party software components. Visibility into the software supply chain is essential to that effort. Cloudanix generates Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) for cloud applications and containerized workloads across AWS, Azure, GCP, and OCI. This provides visibility into components in use, identifies vulnerabilities in third-party libraries and dependencies, and supports the due diligence and third-party risk management TISAX calls for.

Fast Onboarding. Real-Time Visibility. Continuous Compliance.

How Cloudanix Secures Your Cloud

Cloudanix gives you full-stack visibility and protection from Day 1. You start seeing value in minutes — no complex setup required. Our real-time alerting surfaces misconfigurations and policy drifts as they happen. Whether it's unusual activity, access issues, or risky changes — Cloudanix alerts you instantly across multiple channels. Then, automated remediation steps in: from playbook-driven fixes to preventive controls that stop violations before they start. You stay secure, compliant, and always one step ahead — without slowing down your team.

Get Value in Minutes

You begin seeing insights and compliance violations within 5 minutes of onboarding. No long setups. No complex integrations. Just results.

Real-Time Alerting

Stay ahead of misconfigurations and policy drifts with real-time alerts. Cloudanix prioritizes signals based on severity and routes them across channels—before attackers exploit them.

Automated Remediation

Cloudanix enables out-of-the-box remediation playbooks and policy-driven automation to fix violations—or prevent them altogether—across your cloud infrastructure.
