WHY DRATA

Discover the Drata Difference

Increase Access Visibility

Drata pulls user access data from connected applications and manually added systems into a single review workspace. With nightly syncs across integrations, reviewers can see user access data as it exists when they perform the review—not a frozen snapshot from the review dates.

Reduce Unauthorized Access

In Drata, you start a new review period, choose the applications to include, and assign a reviewer for each application before review work begins. Only one review can be active at a time, so teams run a focused cycle and restart the process for the next period.

Keep a Single System of Record

Reviewers can open each application’s user list and then filter for risk indicators like former personnel, service accounts, admin privileges, and missing MFA. After inspecting account details, they can mark each account as approved, rejected, or out of scope and add notes to document judgment for audit evidence.

Generate Audit Evidence Easily

When an application is marked ‘Completed’, Drata generates application-level CSV evidence and combines it into an evidence package. The platform then adds the package to Drata Controls-11 Annual Access Control Review in the primary workspace and stores it in the Evidence Library with a default one-year renewal.
