AI Governance
AI Governance - November 13, 2026 - 202611.1.0 (Fall Release)
General Availability
- GenAI Component Intelligence for AI Models
-
Create and enrich AI model records by using the Model library with information from commonly used third-party AI models. This gives teams a continuously updated technical context to understand model behavior, assess suitability and risk, and start governance workflows without manual research.
For more information, see Creating and Managing AI Models.
- AI Log Analyzer Enhancements and Support for Databricks
-
Leverage AI Log Analyzer on Databricks to scan inference table data for model and agent endpoints and detect PII in prompts and responses. The inference table used by each endpoint is identified without requiring any user input. This feature gives you greater visibility into where sensitive data is exposed in your AI interactions and helps you identify and reduce privacy risk across your AI workloads.
Additionally, the following metrics have been introduced for Databricks and Amazon Bedrock:
- PII categories prompts - view each detected PII category and its count in prompts.
- PII categories response - view each detected PII category and its count in responses.
- Total PII prompts - track the overall number of prompts that contain PII.
- Total PII response - track the overall number of responses that contain PII.
For more information, see OneTrust AI Log Analyzer.
- Observability Enhancements: Enriched Discovery
-
Gain deeper visibility into your AI agents with enriched discovery that captures additional metadata, including instructions, created-by and last-updated-by details for AWS Bedrock agents, and linked identity for AgentCore agents. This enhancement helps you trace who is responsible for each agent, the identity it runs under, and how it is configured to behave.
Additionally, AI Guard metrics on the agent details page are now standardized to show data from the 24 hours since the last sync.
For more information, see Observability Usage of AI Governance Agents & Models and Collected AI Attributes.
- AI Guard Agent Reconciliation
-
Prevent duplicate agent records in your AI inventory by reconciling agents that are created by AI Guard with agents created through assessments or discovered by the lightweight worker node. This gives you a single, accurate record for each agent, so your agent inventory stays accurate.
For more information, see OneTrust AI Guard SDK Guide.
- Microsoft Copilot Studio Agent Detection
-
Automatically scan Microsoft Copilot Studio environments to detect agents and capture key metadata such as ownership, environment, model bindings, connected channels, and authentication settings. This creates a searchable inventory of Copilot Studio agents and their configurations in OneTrust, helping teams support governance, risk assessment, and audit readiness.
For more information, see AI Automation Feature Guide.
- AI Policy - Automated Actions for Sending Assessments
-
Configure automated actions for AI policies to automatically send assessments when AI models, systems, or agents violate policies. This enhancement helps governance teams reduce manual monitoring, streamline governance workflows, and speed up remediation by triggering assessments based on policy compliance outcomes.
For more information, see AI Policy Enforcement Guide.
- AI Policy - Automated Actions for Sending Emails
-
Configure automated actions for AI policies to automatically send email notifications when AI models, systems, or agents violate policies. This enhancement helps governance teams reduce manual monitoring, keep stakeholders informed, and respond more quickly to issues.
For more information, see AI Policy Enforcement Guide.
- AI Policies Condition Expansion
-
Create more precise compliance rules by combining condition blocks with OR logic, in addition to AND, and by using user type attributes, such as business owner or record admin, as condition input. This enhancement helps policy owners broaden policy coverage and reduce manual workarounds for complex governance requirements.
For more information, see AI Policies Feature Guide.
- Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) Phase 1
-
Introducing Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC), a new access-control model that brings record-level access management to the OneTrust Platform as part of ABAC Phase 1: Foundations. ABAC complements the platform's existing Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) model by adding more granular control over who can access specific records and what actions they can perform. Rather than granting access to all records within a solution, ABAC uses assignments and attributes to determine which records a user can access and what permissions they have on those records, helping organizations implement least-privileged access more effectively.
At General Availability, ABAC Phase 1: Foundations adds reporting across all object types, record-level admin access rules across all supported object types (with the option to leave the record admin attribute empty), and system assignments that are enabled for all supported objects, so users can start sharing records right away, even before you create custom assignments.
All supported objects across AI Governance have feature parity within the context of ABAC Phase 1 capabilities, excluding assessments, and ABAC is enabled in all tenants regardless of packaging and pricing.
For more information, see Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) Phase 1: Foundations in the Settings & Administration release notes. This feature is related to the following ideas: PLTI-I-638 and GCIA-I-918.
Note:ABAC Phase 1: Foundations is rolling to General Availability incrementally by environment from November 2026 through March 2027. The rollout is per environment and is not part of the standard release process, and dates are subject to change. Additional capabilities and object support will be introduced in future releases through ABAC Phase 2: Dynamic Access.
For more information, see Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) User Guide and Managing Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) for AI Governance.
- Mention Users in Comments with Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC)
-
In AI Governance, mentioning other users in comments is now available for everyone when they have the access ability to comment. Permissions are checked throughout, including after an assignment changes.
- Unified Table Experience in Attribute Manager
-
Attribute Manager in AI Governance now offers a unified, standardized table experience with paginated, resizable tables and consistent search, sort, and filter behavior. This replaces inconsistent filtering, sorting, and table behavior across Attribute Manager experiences, making configuration faster, easier, and more reliable for Site Admins and managers who configure objects, attributes, and assessments, and reducing the risk of misinterpreting data.
These enhancements will be available for the following AI Governance objects:
-

Standard / Control Framework Changes
- New Colorado Automated Decision-Making Technology Framework Added
-
Colorado Automated Decision-Making Technology (Colorado Senate Bill 26-189) establishes requirements for developers and deployers of automated decision-making technology (ADMT) that materially influences consequential decisions, such as decisions about employment, housing, lending, insurance, and health care. The law applies to covered consequential decisions made on or after January 1, 2027.
We've made implementing Colorado's ADMT requirements easy by offering a framework on the OneTrust platform with controls, implementation guidance, and mapped evidence tasks. The framework covers developer documentation, consumer notices, recordkeeping, data access and correction, and human review. It also addresses related Colorado provisions for conversational AI services and misleading AI claims about psychotherapy.
Scoping survey questions help users identify relevant controls based on their role, organization type, and activities. Control guidance identifies applicable dates and explains how to implement the requirements.
For more information, see Supported Control Frameworks.
- New Canada OSFI E-23 Model Risk Management Framework Added
-
Guideline OSFI E-23 Model Risk Management (2027) **sets out supervisory expectations for how federally regulated financial institutions manage model risk. It covers traditional, AI, and machine learning models and calls for oversight proportionate to the risks they pose. The guideline takes effect on May 1, 2027.
We've made implementing OSFI E-23 easy by offering a framework on the OneTrust platform with controls, implementation guidance, and mapped evidence tasks. The framework covers model governance, inventory and risk ratings, independent review, deployment, monitoring, and retirement.
Selecting the framework in the scoping survey brings the full control set into scope. Institutions can use the guidance and evidence tasks to assess their practices and document how they manage model risk throughout the lifecycle.

Platform Capabilities
Dashboards & Reporting - November 13, 2026 - 202611.1.0 (Fall Release)
General Availability
- Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) Phase 1
-
Introducing Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC), a new access-control model that brings record-level access management to the OneTrust Platform as part of ABAC Phase 1: Foundations. ABAC complements the platform's existing Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) model by adding more granular control over who can access specific records and what actions they can perform. Rather than granting access to all records within a solution, ABAC uses assignments and attributes to determine which records a user can access and what permissions they have on those records, helping organizations implement least-privileged access more effectively. Column reports, PDF reports, and report schedules respect ABAC assignments across all object types included in ABAC Phase 1.
For more information, see Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) User Guide. This feature is related to the following ideas: PLTI-I-638 and GCIA-I-918.
Note:ABAC Phase 1: Foundations is rolling to General Availability incrementally by environment from November 2026 through March 2027. The rollout is per environment and is not part of the standard release process, and dates are subject to change.

Settings & Administration - November 13, 2026 - 202611.1.0 (Fall Release)
General Availability
- Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) Phase 1
-
Introducing Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC), a new access-control model that brings record-level access management to the OneTrust Platform as part of ABAC Phase 1: Foundations. ABAC complements the platform's existing Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) model by adding more granular control over who can access specific records and what actions they can perform. Rather than granting access to all records within a solution, ABAC uses assignments and attributes to determine which records a user can access and what permissions they have on those records, helping organizations implement least-privileged access more effectively.
ABAC Phase 1: Foundations is available for supported objects across AI Governance, Privacy Automation, Tech Risk & Compliance, and Third-Party Management, and introduces the following core capabilities to manage record-level access and collaboration:
- Assignments
-
Leverage out-of-the-box or custom assignments, which are sets of permissions that define what users can do on a record. Assignments can be applied through record sharing or inherited through user attributes and workflow stages to automatically grant record-level permissions for owners, approvers, reviewers, and other users involved in the record lifecycle.
- Sharing, Requesting & Managing Access
-
Share individual records directly with users, request access to records, review who currently has access, and modify or revoke access as needed.
- Record-Level Auditing
-
Review audit history for record access and assignment configuration changes to understand what changed, who made the change, and when the change occurred.
- Reporting
-
Column reports, PDF reports, and report schedules respect ABAC assignments across all object types included in ABAC Phase 1.
- Record Admin Access Rules
-
Configure record-level admin access rules across all supported object types, and optionally leave the record admin attribute empty.
- System Assignments
-
All system assignments are enabled for all supported objects, so users can start sharing records right away, even before you create custom assignments.
At General Availability, all supported objects have feature parity within the context of ABAC Phase 1 capabilities, excluding assessments. ABAC is enabled in all tenants regardless of packaging and pricing, and customers who used share modals in Data Mapping Automation are migrated to the new sharing experience automatically.
ABAC helps organizations manage access more precisely by aligning permissions to records and assignments rather than relying on increasingly complex role structures. This enables granular record-level access control, improves governance, and simplifies collaboration across teams and workflows. With this enhancement, administrators can reduce access-management complexity while strengthening security and accountability across the OneTrust Platform.
For more information, see Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) User Guide. This feature is related to the following ideas: PLTI-I-638 and GCIA-I-918.
Note:ABAC Phase 1: Foundations is rolling to General Availability incrementally by environment from November 2026 through March 2027. The rollout is per environment and is not part of the standard release process, and dates are subject to change. Additional capabilities and object support will be introduced in future releases through ABAC Phase 2: Dynamic Access.
- OneTrust Activity Log
-
Gain a unified, real-time view of user and system audit events across the OneTrust Platform with the Activity logs screen to increase visibility and control, investigate issues faster, and meet compliance requirements with a complete, traceable audit trail. Through a centralized audit experience, teams can quickly search and filter audit records, monitor activity across solutions from a single location, and export audit data for broader reporting and analysis. The General Availability release includes the following additional enhancements for this feature:
-
Capture changes or movement on platform-level events such as domains, languages, localization edits, emails, and more.
-
The Activity log screen now opens with a 30-day filter applied by default, and a notification banner lets you know the filter is active so you can adjust the date range as needed. Pagination has also been improved for faster performance and load times.
-
Integration events are now captured in the audit record, with activity payloads and message formatting standardized across Global Activity and integration events for more consistent, traceable audit data.
-
Process agent actor information in all audit exports and downstream integrations so that all your work receives a consistent and complete picture of agent-initiated activity.
-
Captures the network context for events, such as original caller's IP address and device details for actions performed, to identify the actual source system and support incident investigation and compliance reviews.
-
Document download and file attachment events are recorded during exports and bulk actions to understand what actions were performed and maintain audit evidence.
-
Activity information is also available in the activity tabs of supported and subscribed product areas, such as users, organizations, risks, and more. In these areas, you can filter an entity's activity by event type when the option is available.
-
The standardized Activity Record Created event is now available for sending audit information to SIEM tools with a supported OPenAPI spec for use. The existing, renamed Activity Record Created (Legacy) event is still supported and will be deprecated in the Spring '27 Release. For more information, see Integrating OneTrust Activity Logs with External SIEM Tools.
For more information, see OneTrust Activity Log.
-
- Copy Assignments to Sandbox
-
Assignments are now copied from the parent tenant to a sandbox during sandbox creation or refresh. The copy includes seeded and custom assignments, as well as user-attribute and workflow-stage approval assignment mappings. After the copy, you can create additional assignments directly in the sandbox, helping you test assignment-dependent workflows in an environment that more closely reflects the parent tenant. This enhancement applies to sandboxes created after the
202609.1.0release. If your sandbox was created before that release, refresh it before creating assignments.For more information, see Sandbox Management Overview.

For more information, see Data Glossary for PIA & DPIA Automation Reports.
- Lazy Loading in Multiselect Attribute Dropdown Lists
-
Multiselect attribute dropdown lists in assessments now use lazy loading by default. This update ensures that additional records are automatically fetched as users scroll past the initial 200 results, allowing customers with large inventories to successfully locate and select the appropriate records when answering assessment questions.
- Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) Phase 1
-
Introducing Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC), a new access-control model that brings record-level access management to the OneTrust Platform as part of ABAC Phase 1: Foundations. ABAC complements the platform's existing Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) model by adding more granular control over who can access specific records and what actions they can perform. Rather than granting access to all records within a solution, ABAC uses assignments and attributes to determine which records a user can access and what permissions they have on those records, helping organizations implement least-privileged access more effectively.
At General Availability, ABAC Phase 1: Foundations adds reporting across all object types, record-level admin access rules across all supported object types, and system assignments that are enabled for all supported objects, so users can start sharing records right away, even before you create custom assignments.
All supported objects across Privacy Automation have feature parity within the context of ABAC Phase 1 capabilities, excluding assessments, and ABAC is enabled in all tenants regardless of packaging and pricing.
For more information, see Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) Phase 1: Foundations in the Settings & Administration release notes. This feature is related to the following ideas: PLTI-I-638 and GCIA-I-918.
Note:ABAC Phase 1: Foundations is rolling to General Availability incrementally by environment from November 2026 through March 2027. The rollout is per environment and is not part of the standard release process, and dates are subject to change. Additional capabilities and object support will be introduced in future releases through ABAC Phase 2: Dynamic Access.

- Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) Phase 1
-
Introducing Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC), a new access-control model that brings record-level access management to the OneTrust Platform as part of ABAC Phase 1: Foundations. ABAC complements the platform's existing Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) model by adding more granular control over who can access specific records and what actions they can perform. Rather than granting access to all records within a solution, ABAC uses assignments and attributes to determine which records a user can access and what permissions they have on those records, helping organizations implement least-privileged access more effectively.
At General Availability, ABAC Phase 1: Foundations adds reporting across all object types, record-level admin access rules across all supported object types, and system assignments that are enabled for all supported objects, so users can start sharing records right away, even before you create custom assignments.
All supported objects across Tech Risk & Compliance have feature parity within the context of ABAC Phase 1 capabilities, excluding assessments, and ABAC is enabled in all tenants regardless of packaging and pricing. Business objectives are now a supported object in ABAC Phase 1: Foundations.
Tech Risk & Compliance also includes changes to risk permissions, risk field visibility, and the Stage advancement setting in risk workflows. Review custom roles related to risk management to make sure they continue to work as intended.

-
Introducing Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC), a new access-control model that brings record-level access management to the OneTrust Platform as part of ABAC Phase 1: Foundations. ABAC complements the platform's existing Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) model by adding more granular control over who can access specific records and what actions they can perform. Rather than granting access to all records within a solution, ABAC uses assignments and attributes to determine which records a user can access and what permissions they have on those records, helping organizations implement least-privileged access more effectively.
At General Availability, ABAC Phase 1: Foundations adds reporting across all object types, record-level admin access rules across all supported object types, and system assignments that are enabled for all supported objects, so users can start sharing records right away, even before you create custom assignments.
All supported objects across Tech Risk & Compliance have feature parity within the context of ABAC Phase 1 capabilities, excluding assessments, and ABAC is enabled in all tenants regardless of packaging and pricing. Business objectives are now a supported object in ABAC Phase 1: Foundations.

Updates for the same profile are presented together. Monitoring alerts highlight new information in affected profile sections and risk tables, including text changes; review indicators show which updates need attention and which have been reviewed.
- Daily Digest of Unreviewed Results
-
Daily digests summarize unreviewed Dow Jones screening and monitoring results for third-party and nth-party records. Seeded Dow Jones results pending review views help you find records that need attention and see the pending-result count, review type, and oldest pending-result date. A digest is sent for an inventory type only when it has pending results, for a maximum of two notifications per day.
- Direct Dow Jones Risk Attribution for Nth Parties
-
Dow Jones screening risks for an nth party are recorded on the screened nth-party record instead of changing the related third party’s own Dow Jones risk attributes. Dedicated aggregated attributes keep nth-party risk visible from the related third-party record.
- Exact-match Dow Jones Monitoring
-
Exact-match monitoring follows one confirmed Dow Jones profile by its profile ID, keeping future monitoring focused on the profile you verified. Applying it dismisses the other profiles in the screening results; switching back to name-based monitoring does not restore them.
- Unified Table Experience in Attribute Manager
-
Attribute Manager in Third-Party Due Diligence now offers a unified, standardized table experience with paginated, resizable tables and consistent search, sort, and filter behavior. This replaces inconsistent filtering, sorting, and table behavior across Attribute Manager experiences, making configuration faster, easier, and more reliable for Site Admins and managers who configure objects, attributes, and assessments, and reducing the risk of misinterpreting data.
These enhancements will be available for the following Third-Party Due Diligence objects:
-
Nth Party
-
- Standardized Attribute Export
-
Attribute data in Third-Party Due Diligence can now be exported from the Attribute Manager, giving administrators consistent, reliable data for audits, reporting, and governance reviews. Exports can include the full attribute set or only filtered results, and column selection limits each file to the relevant fields.
These enhancements will be available for the following Third-Party Due Diligence objects:
-
Nth Party
-
- Text Field Character Limit
-
Text fields in the Attribute Manager now support up to 10,000 characters. This establishes a consistent data model that lets customers reliably capture detailed, long-form input across all downstream experiences, replacing a limit of about 1,000 characters.
These enhancements will be available for the following Third-Party Due Diligence objects:
-
Nth Party
-
- Standard Table Experience and Customize Option Order for Attribute Options
-
The attribute options table in the Third-Party Due Diligence Attribute Manager now uses the standard OneTrust table, providing a consistent, standardized table experience. The new Reorder options experience makes it easier to customize the order of attribute options. A Customize option order setting now appears above the options list in place of the checkbox and drag handle on each row, and the Search options field remains in the same place. Adopting the standard table simplifies maintaining attribute options and supports future maintenance.
These enhancements will be available for the following Third-Party Due Diligence objects:
-
Nth Party (Public Preview)
-
Permissions
-
Permission changes have been implemented to improve platform usability and administrative efficiency.

Third-Party Risk Management - November 13, 2026 - 202611.1.0 (Fall Release)
General Availability
- Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) Phase 1
-
Introducing Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC), a new access-control model that brings record-level access management to the OneTrust Platform as part of ABAC Phase 1: Foundations. ABAC complements the platform's existing Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) model by adding more granular control over who can access specific records and what actions they can perform. Rather than granting access to all records within a solution, ABAC uses assignments and attributes to determine which records a user can access and what permissions they have on those records, helping organizations implement least-privileged access more effectively.
At General Availability, ABAC Phase 1: Foundations adds reporting across all object types, record-level admin access rules across all supported object types, and system assignments that are enabled for all supported objects, so users can start sharing records right away, even before you create custom assignments.
All supported objects across Third-Party Management have feature parity within the context of ABAC Phase 1 capabilities, excluding assessments, and ABAC is enabled in all tenants regardless of packaging and pricing.
For more information, see Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) Phase 1: Foundations in the Settings & Administration release notes. This feature is related to the following ideas: PLTI-I-638 and GCIA-I-918.
Note:ABAC Phase 1: Foundations is rolling to General Availability incrementally by environment from November 2026 through March 2027. The rollout is per environment and is not part of the standard release process, and dates are subject to change. Additional capabilities and object support will be introduced in future releases through ABAC Phase 2: Dynamic Access.
For more information, see Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) User Guide and Managing Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) for Third-Party Management.

Standard / Control Framework Changes
- New Colorado Automated Decision-Making Technology Framework Added
-
Colorado Automated Decision-Making Technology (Colorado Senate Bill 26-189) establishes requirements for developers and deployers of automated decision-making technology (ADMT) that materially influences consequential decisions, such as decisions about employment, housing, lending, insurance, and health care. The law applies to covered consequential decisions made on or after January 1, 2027.
We've made implementing Colorado's ADMT requirements easy by offering a framework on the OneTrust platform with controls, implementation guidance, and mapped evidence tasks. The framework covers developer documentation, consumer notices, recordkeeping, data access and correction, and human review. It also addresses related Colorado provisions for conversational AI services and misleading AI claims about psychotherapy.
Scoping survey questions help users identify relevant controls based on their role, organization type, and activities. Control guidance identifies applicable dates and explains how to implement the requirements.

- New Canada OSFI E-23 Model Risk Management Framework Added
-
Guideline OSFI E-23 Model Risk Management (2027) **sets out supervisory expectations for how federally regulated financial institutions manage model risk. It covers traditional, AI, and machine learning models and calls for oversight proportionate to the risks they pose. The guideline takes effect on May 1, 2027.
We've made implementing OSFI E-23 easy by offering a framework on the OneTrust platform with controls, implementation guidance, and mapped evidence tasks. The framework covers model governance, inventory and risk ratings, independent review, deployment, monitoring, and retirement.
Selecting the framework in the scoping survey brings the full control set into scope. Institutions can use the guidance and evidence tasks to assess their practices and document how they manage model risk throughout the lifecycle.

- New NIS 2 (Sweden) Framework Added
-
Sweden's implementation of the NIS 2 Directive, through the Cybersecurity Act (Cybersäkerhetslag), effective January 15, 2026, establishes cybersecurity requirements for essential and important entities operating across covered sectors in Sweden. The legislation establishes requirements relating to cybersecurity risk management measures, incident reporting, supply chain security, business continuity, access control, cryptography, management responsibilities, and other measures designed to achieve a high level of cybersecurity.
We've made implementing NIS 2 (Sweden) easy by offering the framework on our platform and ensuring users can benefit from its overlap with other frameworks that exist on our platform. The platform contains survey questions to help you define scope that will bring in all relevant policies, controls, control implementation guidance, and evidence tasks, including guidance, among others, to assist in meeting the requirements of NIS 2 (Sweden).
