OneTrust, the AI-ready governance platform, unveiled a range of new capabilities designed to help governance teams manage the increasing complexity and rapid pace of AI adoption. According to a recent OneTrust report, governance teams spent 37% more time managing AI risk this year, highlighting the urgent need for faster, smarter governance solutions. OneTrust’s latest innovations aim to empower teams to meet these demands with confidence and efficiency.

“AI is creating powerful new engines for efficiency, decision-making, and innovation,” said DV Lamba, Chief Technology Officer at OneTrust. “Governance professionals can lead this transformation by defining AI’s role in risk management, compliance, and governance. OneTrust has built a governance platform to address the breadth of challenges AI introduces across the tech stack. With capabilities spanning automated workflows to AI agents and more, OneTrust is making continuous governance possible and giving organizations the operational catalyst they need to thrive in the AI era.”

The new capabilities focus on accelerating processes that traditionally required weeks or months of manual work:

OneTrust Third-Party Risk Agent: This tool streamlines third-party risk assessments by identifying critical risks within minutes instead of months. By automating intake, summarizing findings, flagging issues, and guiding responses to high-risk events, teams can make informed decisions quickly and efficiently.

OneTrust Privacy Agent: Privacy Impact Assessments (PIAs) often involve hours of document review, stakeholder interviews, and questionnaire completion. The Privacy Agent automates these tasks, transforming project documents into structured assessment responses in minutes. Leveraging historical assessments, it allows privacy teams to accelerate reviews while maintaining consistency and accuracy.

Continuous AI Governance with Databricks Unity Catalog: Governance teams now gain real-time visibility into AI projects. This integration synchronizes AI project information between OneTrust and Databricks, enabling teams to track model development, data usage, and storage locations creating a single source of truth for AI governance.

Privacy Automation Discovery: This capability automates the discovery and classification of personal data across databases, cloud sources, and file shares. By adding business context to discovered data, it bridges the gap between technical and business understanding of data usage.

These innovations reflect OneTrust’s ongoing commitment to embedding AI directly into its platform, supporting continuous governance through AI-driven agents, workflows, and Copilots.

The 2025 AI-Ready Governance Report further highlights how organizations are adapting governance strategies to meet the evolving challenges of AI. Meanwhile, OneTrust will share insights and real-world strategies at TrustWeek 2025 in San Francisco on September 30 and Amsterdam on October 21.
