"By using Athereon GRC, we were able to link the requirements of the various standards (ISO 27001, ISO 27017, ISO 27018, BSI C5, ISO 27701) and thus process them in just one place.

The effort required to maintain the respective requirements of these standards and norms and the complexity that normally accompanies them have been significantly reduced through the use of Athereon GRC.

I would like to highlight two points in particular:

1) Open communication regarding customer requests and feature requests at all times. These are usually implemented very promptly.

2) The always fast and competent support from the support team.

Many thanks to the Athereon GRC team for the collaboration!

People that are planning something

Collaboration with Athereon GRC was very straightforward, both during project implementation and ongoing use. There was always a competent contact person. Any issues that arose were resolved promptly after reporting, and questions about specific Athereon GRC features were always answered quickly. Furthermore, ideas for new features or suggestions for improvements are received with great interest and then published in a future release.

We've come to value the unbureaucratic, customer-focused collaboration as our greatest advantage and strength, something we sometimes miss with other providers. We also particularly like the videos on Athereon GRC that have been published recently.

Athereon GRC can definitely be recommended for public sector administrations of our size.

FAQs

Get detailed answers to the most frequently asked questions.

What is a TISAX® certification?

TISAX® ( Trusted Information Security Assessment Exchange ) is an information security assessment process specifically developed for the automotive industry. Obtaining the TISAX® label allows companies to confirm their information security standards, strengthening trust between business partners. The process is based on the requirements of the ENX Association and promotes the secure exchange of information throughout the supply chain. A valid TISAX® label is often a prerequisite for collaboration with automotive manufacturers and suppliers.

What are the TISAX® requirements?

TISAX® requirements cover various aspects of information security, focusing on the protection of sensitive data and risk assessment. Similar to ISO 27001, companies must implement an information security management system ( ISMS ) to identify, assess, and manage risks. TISAX® includes three different levels of protection, called assessment levels.

The ENX Association offers a comprehensive TISAX® Participant Handbook with all further information.

How long is the TISAX® certificate valid?

In general, a granted TISAX® label is valid for three years. After this period, a reassessment must be conducted to ensure continued compliance with information security requirements. During the validity period, regular reviews or follow-up audits may be required to ensure that security standards are maintained.

How can Athereon GRC support me in the TISAX® audit?

Athereon GRC maps all VDA TISAX® requirements in guided sections, allowing users to process each requirement individually, create tickets, or automate evidence. All requirements can be mapped separately in a granular and modular manner for different scopes (such as legal entities or plants), so that even large companies always maintain an overview. Thanks to flexible interfaces, Athereon GRC can be seamlessly integrated into your existing IT landscape. With Athereon GRC, you do not need any additional software for your ISMS according to TISAX®.
