Connected vehicle data
Modern vehicles generate terabytes of location, driver behavior, and telemetry data — all subject to GDPR when linked to individuals.
Supply chain TISAX requirements
OEMs increasingly mandate TISAX certification from suppliers. Meeting information security assessment requirements across a multi-tier supply chain is complex and resource-intensive.
Autonomous driving regulations
ADAS and self-driving systems must comply with UNECE R155/R156 cybersecurity regulations and the EU AI Act's high-risk AI requirements.
Why Marsstein
Purpose-built for automotive compliance complexity.
Automotive compliance spans GDPR, TISAX, ISO 27001, UNECE regulations, and soon the EU AI Act. Traditional consultants handle these frameworks in silos — separate audits, separate reports, separate invoices. Marsstein's AI agent maps controls across all frameworks simultaneously, identifies overlaps, and generates unified documentation. One platform, one source of truth, continuously maintained.

Frequently asked questions
Is TISAX certification mandatory for automotive suppliers?+
While not legally mandatory, most major German OEMs (VW, BMW, Mercedes) require TISAX certification from their direct suppliers. It's effectively a market access requirement. Marsstein helps you prepare the required information security documentation and gap analysis.
How does the EU AI Act affect automotive companies?+
The EU AI Act classifies ADAS and autonomous driving systems as high-risk AI. This means mandatory conformity assessments, technical documentation, human oversight requirements, and post-market monitoring. Enforcement begins in phases from 2025-2027.
Can Marsstein help with both GDPR and TISAX simultaneously?+
Yes. Many controls overlap between GDPR and TISAX (access management, data classification, incident response). Marsstein's cross-framework mapping identifies these overlaps so you document controls once and satisfy multiple frameworks.
What about connected car data and GDPR?+
Connected vehicles process personal data including location, driving patterns, and biometric data. GDPR applies whenever this data can identify a driver or passenger. Marsstein generates the required Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs) and processing records specific to connected vehicle scenarios.
