There's more terrain to cover in our mission to simplify compliance further.

Drata Acquires Harmonize.io

I'm thrilled to share that we've reached a pivotal milestone: Drata has acquired Harmonize.io, backed by Ripple Ventures and Array Ventures, and a trailblazer in user access governance and automation. This move not only enriches our talented team with Harmonize's exceptional product and engineering teams but also accelerates our mission, reinforcing our position at the forefront of compliance automation.

In an era where remote and hybrid work models have become the norm, maintaining a secure posture across distributed teams is paramount. Harmonize.io steps up to this challenge with its sophisticated governance solutions, automating crucial processes such as mobile device management and the onboarding/offboarding of employees. Their use of AI and machine learning offers businesses unparalleled insights into access management, enhancing security and operational efficiency.

The synergy between Drata and Harmonize.io was instantly recognizable. Our shared commitment to automation and innovation promised a seamless integration of our platforms and visions.

Johnny Kinder, the CEO of Harmonize and newest member of our product team, says it best. "Our mission was to revolutionize system access management. By automating the onboarding and offboarding process and leveraging AI to evaluate real-time risks, we've not only saved companies invaluable time and resources but also set new standards in the field. Joining forces with Drata is a testament to our achievements and a thrilling next step in our shared vision."

The integration of Harmonize.io's capabilities in access provisioning/deprovisioning and mobile device management is just the beginning. As we look ahead, we're excited to further enhance our platform with Harmonize's innovative solutions, deepening our AI capabilities and simplifying the journey to continuous compliance.
