Upwind delivers runtime-aware vulnerability findings, and Drata automatically maps them to vulnerability monitoring controls, maintaining continuous, audit-ready evidence and reducing manual compliance work.
Cloud environments don’t pause for audits. Workloads change, identities shift, and vulnerabilities emerge continuously. Security teams can see risk in real time, but proving that vulnerability monitoring controls are operating effectively still relies on screenshots, spreadsheets, and point-in-time reports.
That gap between what security tools detect and what organizations can prove creates operational and audit risk.
Drata and Upwind close that gap.
Together, Drata and Upwind connect real-time cloud security findings to continuous compliance evidence without adding operational burden to security or GRC teams.
Continuous Cloud Security Requires Continuous Compliance
As cloud environments become more dynamic, organizations are moving away from snapshot-based compliance toward continuous assurance.
That shift requires two things:
- High-fidelity security signals that reflect real-world risk
- A way to automatically map those findings into always audit-ready evidence
This is where the Drata and Upwind integration comes in.
How Drata and Upwind Work Together
Upwind is a next-generation cloud security platform built to help organizations secure everything they run in the cloud — with runtime context at the core. By combining posture management, vulnerability management, identity security, API security, workload protection, AI security, and cloud detection and response into one platform, Upwind enables teams to understand what is actually happening in their environment.
Instead of relying on static findings alone, Upwind shows which vulnerabilities are truly exploitable, which identities are actively in use, which APIs and data flows are exposed, and which workloads are behaving abnormally. The result is less noise, faster prioritization, and more confident remediation across modern cloud and AI environments.
Drata is the Agentic Trust Management Platform that unifies governance, risk, compliance, and assurance and uses automated evidence collection to support continuous compliance. With continuous control monitoring, automated evidence collection, and Trust Centers, Drata replaces point-in-time audits with live, continuous visibility.
The integration connects these two layers:
- Drata securely imports vulnerability findings from Upwind
- Findings are mapped as automated evidence for Drata’s vulnerability monitoring controls
- Evidence stays continuously up to date as new risks are detected
- No scans are triggered or modified. Data access is read-only and scoped.
The result is a seamless flow from runtime security intelligence to audit-ready proof.
What This Integration Enables for You
Continuous Vulnerability Evidence
Upwind’s runtime-aware vulnerability findings are automatically mapped into Drata’s control framework. Instead of exporting reports or capturing screenshots, teams maintain always-current evidence that reflects the real state of their environment.
Less Manual Work for Security and GRC
Security teams stay focused on remediation, not reporting. GRC teams stop chasing proof. The integration eliminates manual handoffs, duplicated tracking, and audit-driven fire drills.
Faster Audits and Enterprise Reviews
Auditors and enterprise buyers don’t want more data—they want trustworthy data. Drata maps Upwind findings to controls and centralizes them as consistent, review-ready evidence, accelerating audits and shortening security review cycles.
Trust That Scales With the Cloud
As environments grow and change, trust stays current. Controls remain continuously monitored, risks remain visible, and evidence remains accessible.
Designed for Security, Built for Scale
The Drata × Upwind integration follows least-privilege principles:
- Read-only API access
- Scoped vulnerability data
- Controlled sync limits to ensure performance and stability
Security teams maintain full control, while compliance gains continuous visibility.
Why This Matters Now
As regulatory pressure increases and enterprise buyers demand stronger security assurance, organizations can’t afford gaps between:
- What their tools detect
- What their controls claim
- What their evidence proves
Drata and Upwind close those gaps through automated control mapping and continuous evidence collection.
Together, they connect cloud security findings to continuous compliance and centralized assurance.
Continuous, Audit-Ready Cloud Security
Teams already using Drata and Upwind can enable the integration directly from Drata’s Connections page and begin syncing vulnerability findings in minutes.
From the first sync, organizations gain stronger security visibility, reduced manual effort, and confidence that their trust posture is always current.
Discover how Upwind vulnerability findings automatically map into Drata to power continuous compliance and always audit-ready evidence.
