Drata MCP: Built for AI-Native Trust Management
Drata MCP is an experimental server that brings Drata’s enterprise-grade compliance, risk, and monitoring data to AI-native environments like Claude and AI-powered IDEs like Cursor, Augment and more.
As the world races toward agentic AI, Drata is reimagining trust management for the AI-native era by building a platform where GRC and Assurance are powered by AI.
The AI Shift: From Assistance to Autonomy
2025 marks a critical moment in enterprise AI. The shift is clear: companies are moving from prompt-based assistants to autonomous agents capable of reasoning, orchestrating, and executing complex tasks. MCP—Model Context Protocol—is emerging as the backbone of this transformation, enabling real-time collaboration between agents and systems. And Drata isn’t just adopting this future—we’re building it.
Drata MCP offers an agentic interface for trust management, natively integrated with AI. Unlike other solutions requiring complex setup, Drata provides a fully managed, cloud-hosted platform, simplifying GRC tasks by handling operational complexity and focusing on control monitoring and risk management. It's a modern, accessible, and scalable experience with no setup required.
What is Drata MCP?
Drata MCP is an experimental server that brings Drata’s enterprise-grade compliance, risk, and monitoring data to AI-native environments like Claude and AI-powered IDEs like Cursor, Augment and more. It allows developers, GRC leaders, and internal platform teams to interact with their trust data in Drata in real time using natural language or API calls.
Organizations will use Drata MCP to:
Summarize failed compliance tests instantly.
Generate real-time risk and controls reports.
Power AI workflows with live compliance context.
Plug directly into Claude, IDEs, or orchestration agents using the MCP protocol.
This isn't a theory. It’s live—and it’s extensible.
Key Use Cases: Built for the AI-Native Enterprise
1. Executive Risk Reporting
With a single prompt, generate an exec-ready risk summary segmented by severity, department, or remediation status—powered by real-time data, not dashboards or spreadsheets.
Ask: Give me a high-level summary of open, high-severity risks this quarter.
Customer Value: 50-75% reduction in reporting effort, faster CISO decision-making, and tighter alignment with real-world risk.
2. Test Failure Monitoring
Instead of sifting through dashboards, let your AI assistant pull and prioritize test failures based on severity and control criticality.
Ask: What are the most important tests failing in our cloud environment?
Customer Value: 25-50% time savings, immediate triage, and fewer missed issues across multi-cloud stacks.
3. Control Mapping Summary
Quickly identify which controls are covered under which frameworks, spot coverage gaps, and accelerate onboarding for new audits.
Ask: Summarize our controls by framework and flag any unmapped requirements.
Customer Value: Always-on audit readiness, accelerated compliance maturity, and simplified multi-framework governance.
Why Drata MCP is Unique
A Scalable, Fully Managed Engine—No DIY Setup
Most MCP offerings leave you cloning a GitHub project and wrestling with security patches. Drata hosts the protocol for you in a hardened environment, so you’re up and running in minutes - no servers, no dependencies, no upkeep.
Programmatic Trust for Every Role
Developers can embed trust logic directly into development environments.
Partners and auditor: can create their own agents that plug into Drata’s compliance data model.
GRC teams gain a programmable, AI-accessible gateway to real-time compliance.
Continuous Innovation, Effortless Upgrades
Because MCP is remotely hosted, every new capability—framework mappings, additional AI connectors, deeper service-level telemetry—drops into your tenant automatically. Your team sees the benefit.
Access Boundaries Engineered in
Trust is our foundation—and that extends to how AI uses your data. Drata MCP operates within strict boundaries of the read and/or write access available for an account: no AI agent or workflow can access more than what’s authorized. All queries, context, and usage respect Drata’s enterprise-grade privacy and access controls.
You don’t have to choose between innovation and integrity. Drata delivers both.
See It In Action
Watch Drata MCP in action to see how a risk manager can instantly review vendor status and prep for security reviews, and how CISOs can save hours on board-level risk and compliance updates. All powered by real-time data from Drata’s MCP and Claude.
We’re Not Just Building AI Features—We’re Building an AI-native platform
Drata MCP bridges the gap from compliance as a burden to trust as an autonomous capability. It’s what happens when you stop thinking about features and start building platforms.
As AI becomes the default interface for work, Drata MCP ensures compliance and trust are at the core of it.
