OneTrust is Named a Leader in the IDC MarketScape 2025 Worldwide GRC Software Report

OneTrust delivers a comprehensive platform to manage GRC, third-party risk, and privacy at scale

ATLANTA, July 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- OneTrust, the platform helping organizations use data and AI responsibly, today announced it has been named a Leader in the IDC MarketScape Worldwide Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) Software 2025 Vendor Assessment (Doc # US53615325, June 2025). OneTrust was rigorously evaluated among a total of 19 vendors in two key categories: strategic vision and product capabilities. According to the report, "OneTrust has the ability to manage virtually all organizational risk, audit, and privacy control programs under one platform."

"Legacy GRC tools were built for audits, not agility," said DV Lamba, Chief Technology Officer at OneTrust. "Today's regulatory and risk landscape demands a data-driven, holistic, and automated approach. Backed by a common data model, comprehensive regulatory intelligence, an open integration framework, and embedded AI, the OneTrust Platform provides organizations with an enterprise-wide view of their risk and compliance posture. We're doing the 'heavy lifting' for GRC teams so they can accelerate compliance workflows, reduce risk exposure, and drive effective risk decisions."

The IDC MarketScape also highlights AI and automation capabilities within the OneTrust Platform: "OneTrust GRC capabilities have continually been enhanced and even more so with AI. While the platform is very comprehensive, integrating ML and AI continues to make OneTrust a solid platform for cross-organizational GRC (or integrated GRC)." The report continues, "With continuous innovation and enhancement, the ongoing management and use of the platform establishes consistently managed and forward-moving control programs."

OneTrust recently launched several AI and automation capabilities to scale the productivity and effectiveness of GRC teams. OneTrust Copilot, which references OneTrust's extensive library of regulatory intelligence, the myOneTrust knowledgebase, and OneTrust program data, gives teams easy and fast access to the exact regulatory, product, and program insights they need. OneTrust is also applying AI to bring accuracy and efficiency to historically manual and time-consuming GRC activities. AI-powered document scanning enables rapid data extraction while risk assessment automation pulls insights from a wide range of compliance documentation, transforming hours of manual review into real-time risk insight.

"With its integrated and scalable platform, OneTrust is a Leader in the latest IDC MarketScape Worldwide Governance, Risk, and Compliance Software Vendor Assessment," said Phil Harris, Research Director, Governance, Risk & Compliance Services of IDC, in the MarketScape report. "Organizations can leverage the advanced automation capabilities of the OneTrust Platform to achieve integrated GRC and scale their programs as they grow."

Harris concluded, "Organizations should consider OneTrust as a platform to manage all the different control programs, including privacy, GRC, and third-party risk management, both in a single region and worldwide."

OneTrust's position as a Leader in this report follows recent recognition from G2's Summer 2025 Grid® Reports. The company earned 15 badges, including Leader for Data Governance, Leader for Incident Response, and both Best Estimated ROI and Fastest Implementation for Vendor Security and Privacy Assessment. OneTrust was also named a winner in the 2025 Cyber Defense Magazine Global InfoSec Awards.
