Company profile
researched Aug 2026Drata operates what it calls an agentic trust management platform: software that automates security compliance work, monitors controls continuously, manages internal and third-party risk, and lets companies publish their security posture externally. Core capabilities described on the company's site include automated control mapping and evidence collection across multiple frameworks, continuous control monitoring with guided remediation, a customer-facing Trust Center for sharing security documentation, AI-assisted security questionnaire intake and response generation drawing on a customer knowledge base, and one-click, criteria-based third-party/vendor risk assessments performed by AI agents that gather documents from vendor Trust Centers and run follow-ups. Supported frameworks listed include SOC 2, ISO 27001, ISO 42001, GDPR, HIPAA, and PCI DSS, among others.
At the time of the Series C (December 2022), the product was positioned as a continuous security and compliance automation platform supporting more than 14 frameworks, standards, and regulations (including SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, NIST SP 800-53, and CCPA), with integrations into more than 75 applications and systems such as AWS, GitHub, Okta, and Gusto to pull compliance evidence in real time. Risk Management and the dynamic Trust Center were launched in 2022. The platform has since expanded toward enterprise GRC and AI governance: a newer product discovers AI agents running in a customer environment, enforces policy before an action executes, and generates auditor-grade records of each decision.
Drata segments its offering by customer stage — startup (first audit, framework roadmaps), growth (standardizing controls and policies, predictable audits), and enterprise (multi-business-unit and multi-region governance, custom frameworks). It reports more than 8,500 global customers and a 4.8/5.0 G2 rating.
