Security Questionnaire Automation (SQA)
Note: This feature is available to those who are on the Foundation or Advanced packages, Trust Center Pro purchasers, and those outside of the EU.
Introducing our Security Questionnaire Automation (SQA) feature! Security questionnaires can be time-consuming and repetitive, so we've automated the process to save you valuable time and effort. Here's how our SQA can help you:
AI generated responses: SQA quickly analyzes and generates responses based on company data, past responses, policies, and uploaded files.
Full Control: You always remain in control. After the AI generated responses, you can review, approve, edit, or reject them.
Continuous Improvement: SQA continuously improves based on your edits, making future questionnaires even easier to handle.
To learn more, go to Security Questionnaire Automation.
Mobile device management (MDM) and Drata agent syncs enhancement
The devices synced from the Drata agent and MDM now reflect the correct device name which comes from the direct source (such as MDM), rather than defaulting to the model. If no device name is available, Drata will fall back on the model details.
NIS 2 compliance framework
Drata now supports NIS 2, the EU's new cybersecurity law, enabling you to fully use Drata's automation tools for compliance. NIS 2 is mandatory for medium and large companies that provide essential or important services to the EU economy and society, including companies and suppliers. This update helps EU-based organizations stay ahead of industry trends while expanding opportunities and building strong relationships across EMEA.
