February Product Releases: Enhancing Trust, Compliance, and Automation
With these February updates, we continue to push forward in making your GRC program more automated, scalable, and intuitive.
February was an exciting month filled with new features and enhancements designed to make compliance and risk management faster, more configurable, and scalable than ever before. From improving vendor questionnaires to deepening automation capabilities, our latest updates help teams build trust, gain control, and streamline compliance processes.
Here’s what’s new:
Build Trust Faster
These new features will speed up the processes of gaining and maintaining trust with your customers so you can win deals quicker.
Automate Vendor Questionnaires and Reminders
Say goodbye to manually sending vendor questionnaires. Now, you can schedule them based on your review schedule, ensuring they go out at the right time. Automated reminders help drive timely responses across your vendor list, saving you time and improving response rates.
Upgraded Vendor Questionnaire Experience
We’ve made vendor reviews smoother and more user-friendly. Vendors can now share questionnaires with their team members, save progress, and track overall completion. Plus, new customization options—such as previewing questions, adding optional fields, branding, and customizing delivery emails—give vendors a tailored experience that aligns with your organization’s needs.
More Configurability & Control
With Drata, you are in the driver’s seat. Here’s how we hand you the keys to make your risk and compliance program work for you.
Drata Policy Center Refresh
Managing policies just got easier. You can now create and manage draft policies separately from published versions, ensuring changes only take effect once finalized and approved. With improved visibility, streamlined version control, and enhanced tracking with Policy Status Workflow, you can ensure compliance while maintaining accountability.
Configure Test Mapping with Ease
Need to reset test mapping on your controls? Now you can effortlessly revert tests to the recommended Drata tests directly from the control drawer using the new Test Mapping Reset feature.
Flexible Framework Readiness Settings
Get a clearer picture of your compliance status. You can now configure how your framework readiness is calculated—either by requirements or by control-based progress—using the Framework Readiness Toggle to match your preferred approach.
Comply with Confidence
Our automated monitoring and expert-backed framework support ensures a seamless path to compliance with the latest standards.
ISO 42001 Support: Responsible AI Compliance
AI regulations are evolving, and we’re here to help. Drata now supports the ISO 42001 Framework, providing organizations with the tools they need to certify compliance with AI governance and security standards. Our built-in control mappings from Drata’s DCF library simplify the path to responsible AI management.
PCI v4.0.1 Enhancements
Staying up to date with PCI compliance is critical. Drata ensures you have the latest framework updates, including PCI 4.0, so you never miss a beat when it comes to maintaining compliance.
Modern & Scalable GRC Platform
Streamline risk management and compliance with an intuitive, scalable platform designed for modern GRC needs.
New Look for Monitoring
Identifying risks and resolving compliance issues is now faster and more intuitive. Our newly optimized Monitoring Page gives teams clear visibility into their risk posture, helping them quickly address potential gaps and ensure compliance.
Full-Page Infrastructure Connection Experience
Managing your infrastructure connections just got easier. The new Full-Page Connection Management View provides a centralized way to see how connections impact your compliance posture, related controls, automated tests, and setup requirements—all with direct access to help documentation.
Automate More
Take compliance automation to the next level with expanded integrations and enhanced tools that streamline evidence collection, asset management, and task coordination.
Expanded Automated Evidence Collection
We’ve expanded our test coverage with 14 new Azure and 3 new AWS tests, enabling automated evidence collection to improve compliance readiness. These tests are available on the new Monitoring Page and are automatically disabled unless applicable to your environment.
Seamless Personnel Data Integration with PingOne
Simplify identity and access management with our new PingOne integration, which allows you to automatically pull in personnel data. This makes control monitoring and evidence collection for your IdP more seamless than ever.
Enhanced Virtual Asset Support for AWS Org Units
Managing AWS assets is even more efficient. Drata automatically pulls in all of your AWS Org Units' virtual assets, eliminating the need for manual connections and making compliance easier at scale.
Upgraded Linear Integration
Managing compliance tasks in Linear is now more powerful. Our upgraded Linear integration supports additional fields like Priority, Status, and Project, giving teams more flexibility when creating compliance-related tickets within Drata.
With these February updates, we continue to push forward in making your GRC program more automated, scalable, and intuitive. Whether it’s improving vendor workflows, increasing configurability, or deepening automation, our latest features empower teams to focus on what matters most: staying secure and compliant with ease.
