AI Summaries for Tests: From Failures into Actionable Insights
Let Drata intelligently guide you through remediation with AI summaries for tests.
As a compliance or security professional, you may be deep in control monitoring and audit prep, making sure your evidence is up-to-date, your controls are ready, and your team has everything they need to be productive.
The problem? Comprehensive test coverage can sometimes lead to a flood of failure results—without the context you need to act fast.
You get hundreds of signals, but no prioritization. You bounce between dashboards to trace the source of a single failure. And at scale, one unclear test result becomes dozens of time-consuming dead ends. The result? Wasted hours, scattered context, and slowed-down teams chasing clarity instead of building with confidence.
Leverage AI-Powered Summaries for Faster Insights
We’ve introduced Drata AI summaries for tests, a feature designed to bring quick insights to your monitoring workflow.
Navigate failures without the guesswork—every failed test now includes:
A breakdown of which accounts failed.
Direct links to the relevant audit events.
In-context audit data within the test details—no more switching between different pages.
Let Drata AI explain the failure for you—just click “generate summary” to instantly receive:
Provider
Account ID/Alias
Resource Name & ID
AI-generated explanation of failure
Viewers at the account level can also generate scoped summaries showing:
Number of failed resources.
Failure cause.
Plain-language explanations you can act on.
No more sifting through JSON or interpreting cryptic failure codes. Drata AI does the interpretation for you, and gives you a clean path to remediation.
Why Compliance and Security Teams are Excited (and Why You Should be Too)
This feature was built with compliance and security professionals in mind. Here are a few powerful use cases for Drata AI summaries for tests.
GRC Manager
You may be wasting hours identifying and explaining why a test related to a certain control has failed across dozens of your cloud services.
With AI Summaries for Tests, you can:
Speed up your root cause analysis: AI gets you answers fast.
Improve handoffs: Give engineers or owners a clear explanation they can act on.
Scale smarter: Understand failures across dozens of accounts in seconds, not hours.

Move from scattered signals to clear, actionable insights—accelerating root cause analysis, streamlining handoffs, and resolving issues faster, all while staying fully prepared for audits and scaling with confidence.
Security Engineer
Triaging test failures during audits takes too long and slows down response time.
With AI Summaries for Tests, you can:
Stay focused: View audit events and account-specific data directly in the test details—no need to switch tools.
Fix issues faster with less guesswork: Leverage AI-powered summaries that clearly state what failed, why it failed, and what needs to change.
Improve audit collaboration: Share clear explanations that help teams close issues faster and with more confidence.
Scale response efforts: Operate across cloud environments without drowning in JSON or manual event reviews.
We’ve seen firsthand that this feature can save multiple hours per failed test, especially at the enterprise level where noise is high and clarity is critical.
