Manufacturing compliance that keeps pace with your customers
Your customers audit your security, your suppliers audit yours, and the plant floor cannot stop for either. CMDash gives you one evidence engine for the standards manufacturers are asked about.
Regulatory and customer pressure
Customer supplier audits
Automotive and industrial buyers ask suppliers for assessment results, with TISAX common in the automotive chain and ISO 27001 asked for broadly.
Defense supply-chain flow-down
Manufacturers that build parts for defense primes inherit federal requirements for protecting controlled information.
Intellectual property
Designs, tooling and process data are the asset competitors and nation-state actors want most.
Threats that target this industry
Production-stopping ransomware
An outage on the shop floor is measured in missed shipments, so manufacturers are paid-for targets.
IT and OT convergence
Connected equipment widens the attack surface into systems that were never built to be patched often.
Supplier compromise
A breached supplier or logistics partner becomes an inbound path into your network.
The frameworks CMDash tracks for you
Crosswalked, so one piece of evidence counts twice:
- TISAX (VDA ISA v6) and ISO/IEC 27001:2022
- ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0
Capabilities that matter most here
Framework tracking and crosswalk
Collect once for TISAX and ISO 27001, which share overlapping controls.
Controls tracked with owners, status and evidence. A status change carries to overlapping controls in other frameworks.
Evidence from your tools
Evidence from your endpoint, vulnerability and identity tools instead of screenshots before each audit.
Integration data collected on a schedule and turned into evidence by mapping rules you install or write, plus manual uploads with history.
Live posture grade
A live grade and trend that plant and corporate leadership can both read.
An A-F score recomputed every 4 hours once a tool is connected, with 30-day and 90-day trends.
Vendor register
Track the suppliers and logistics partners you rely on.
Vendors with risk scoring, owners and continuous monitoring, plus SIG Lite and CSA CAIQ questionnaire templates (Enterprise).
POA&M tracking
Findings from a customer audit become tracked actions with owners and dates.
Owner, committed date, milestones, closure evidence and the full history of every change. Tracking is on every plan.
Trust Center and questionnaires
Answer customer questionnaires from one reviewed set of answers.
A public page for your organization where prospects submit security questionnaires. Nothing reaches the requester until someone on your team approves every answer.
