The innovations OneTrust announced today include:

OneTrust Third-Party Risk Agent: Intake a third party and identify critical risks in minutes, not months
Traditional third-party risk assessments are manual and slow, requiring tedious project management that can go on for weeks or even months, wasting resources and delaying third-party selection and onboarding. The OneTrust Third-Party Risk Agent targets the most painful bottlenecks to automate intake, accelerate assessment, summarize key findings, flag risks and issues, and guide monitoring and response to critical risk events. This allows teams to quickly validate findings and inform third-party selection with confidence.

OneTrust Privacy Agent: Helping privacy pros accelerate risk reviews
Privacy Impact Assessments (PIA) have long required privacy professionals to spend hours gathering documents, interviewing stakeholders, and filling out lengthy questionnaires to create business context. OneTrust’s Privacy Agent automates this work by analyzing project documents and converting them into structured assessment responses within minutes. With scalable knowledge of past assessments, this agent enables privacy teams to accelerate reviews with consistency, context, and confidence.

Continuous AI Governance Synchronization with Databricks Unity Catalog: Enabling governance teams with the real-time AI project information they need
AI speed brings AI complexity, meaning governance teams often struggle to get up-to-date information across the AI development lifecycle. Now, continuous synchronization of AI projects between OneTrust and Databricks gives governance teams centralized, real-time visibility into AI development and helps them track what is being built, where it lives, and what data it touches. This native integration ensures that any model registered in Databricks Unity Catalog is also available in OneTrust to create a single source of truth.

Privacy Automation Discovery: Data mapping that matches the speed of your business
This new capability reduces the manual, time-consuming work of discovering and classifying personal data while giving privacy teams faster, more accurate visibility into how data is used across the business. The OneTrust platform automatically discovers and monitors structured and unstructured data stored in databases, buckets, blob storage, other cloud sources, and file shares. Once assets are discovered, automated data classification adds business context to the privacy team’s data map, closing the gap between business and technical understanding of data use in the organization.
