The automotive industry is undergoing a rapid shift toward software-defined vehicles, electrification (EV), ADAS & autonomous systems, and globalized supply chains. As R&D volumes grow and collaboration expands across OEMs, Tier-1, Tier-2, design firms, and testing partners, sensitive engineering data is more fragmented and more exposed than ever.
Automotive companies today face:
Global automotive teams typically search for answers to:
Design files often move across dozens of vendors with no persistent control, creating blind spots.
Automotive R&D, especially related to defense, battery, ADAS, and semiconductor components, often falls under ITAR and other regional regulations.
Files on email, USB, shared drives, or vendor platforms create uncontrolled data sprawl.
OEMs often cannot track who opened, copied, or modified a design file.
Fasoo enables automotive organizations to secure sensitive data across OEMs, Tier-1, Tier-2 suppliers, test labs, and global engineering partners.
Fasoo keeps CAD and engineering files encrypted at all times, wherever they travel, ensuring continuous protection across OEMs and suppliers.
Access to sensitive design files can be automatically limited by role, project phase, or supplier tier to prevent unauthorized exposure or reuse.
Files shared with suppliers open in a secure viewer with dynamic watermarks, permission controls, and expiration settings.
Fasoo tracks every open, edit, copy, print, or screen capture action, both internally and externally, to maintain full visibility over engineering IP.
Fasoo protects key automotive formats, including CATIA, NX, Creo, and SolidWorks, without disrupting engineering workflows.
Fasoo discovers, classifies, and governs unstructured engineering data to reduce security risks and support AI-ready documentation.
A global automotive leader protects engineering IP across a global multi-tier supply chain.
An automotive parts manufacturer secures CAD and process documentation in manufacturing environments.

Fasoo secures a wide range of major CAD/CAE formats, including CATIA, NX, Creo, SolidWorks, and AutoCAD, as well as BOMs, simulation results, prototype documents, and supplier deliverables. If you’d like to confirm support for your specific tools or formats, feel free to contact us and our team will guide you.
Files remain encrypted with policy-based access controls and audit trails, even after leaving the OEM environment, ensuring secure collaboration across the entire supply chain.
Yes. Fasoo Enterprise DRM (FED) maintains persistent encryption, consistent access policies, and complete usage logs that support compliance with U.S. ITAR/EAR, EU GDPR, and other region-specific requirements.
No. Engineers can continue using their existing CAD tools and workflows while security is enforced automatically in the background.
Yes. Fasoo Enterprise DRM (FED) automatically protects derivative files like PDFs, images, and reports generated from original CAD or engineering documents.
Fasoo Enterprise DRM (FED) integrates with major PLM/PDM environments to ensure documents remain governed throughout design, prototype, testing, and production workflows.
Fasoo blocks unauthorized printing, screen captures, and copying, while dynamic watermarking and real-time logging provide additional visibility and deterrence.
Most customers begin securing critical engineering workflows within weeks, with phased deployment available for large OEMs and global supply chains. Because deployment timelines vary depending on your infrastructure and security requirements, you can contact us to discuss the best approach for your environment.
