Strengthening IT Security and Compliance in the Automotive Industry.
ALT Technologies, an innovative global converting company, and a leading manufacturer of occupant safety applications, labels, functional parts, and EV battery solutions, is proud to announce that it has successfully obtained TISAX (Trusted Information Security Assessment Exchange) Level 3 certification on the corporate level . This achievement reinforces the company’s commitment to the highest standards of information security, prototype protection, and data compliance in the automotive industry.
TISAX is a globally recognised security standard developed by the German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA), ensuring that automotive suppliers, manufacturers, and business partners meet strict data security and risk management criteria. While it’s mandatory for OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers to require TISAX level 3 certification to safeguard sensitive information and intellectual property, it’s an exceptional feature for a Tier 2 supplier such as ALT Technologies.
“Achieving TISAX certification is a significant milestone in our commitment to maintaining the highest standards of data security and information protection. This reflects our ongoing efforts to enhance the trust our clients place in us and ensures that we are well-equipped to meet the evolving security demands of the automotive industry. With TISAX certification, we not only enhance our security posture but also solidify our position as a trusted partner for OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers,” said Dirk Houtveen, Global Information & Security Manager, ALT Technologies.
To obtain TISAX certification, ALT Technologies implemented a robust Information Security Management System (ISMS), ensuring compliance with industry-leading regulations such as ISO/IEC 27001 and GDPR.
The assessment covered several critical areas, including IT security policies, GDPR compliance, physical access controls, and prototype protection. By strengthening these areas further, ALT Technologies has improved operational security, enhanced client trust, and positioned itself for long-term business sustainability.
TISAX certification enhances ALT Technologies’ ability to handle confidential automotive projects while ensuring:
Stronger Data Protection & Compliance: Safeguarding sensitive information and intellectual property.
Trust & Regulatory Compliance: Meeting stringent industry security requirements.
Access to New Business Opportunities: Eligibility for high-security projects.
Long-Term Risk Mitigation: Strengthening security processes to future-proof the company.
Following the successful certification at its headquarters, ALT Technologies is preparing to extend TISAX certification to its facilities in Romania, China, and Mexico. Their long-term commitment to continuous improvement ensures that the company remains at the forefront of security and compliance in the automotive sector.
