Security Automation Meets Real-Time Assurance: How the Bytes and Drata Partnership is Redefining Trust for UK Enterprises
Wednesday 17th September 2025
At Bytes, we believe the best partnerships solve real-world challenges — and today’s compliance landscape presents no shortage of them. That’s why we’re excited to announce our strategic partnership with Drata, the leading AI-native Trust Management platform. Together, we’re bringing the future of trust and assurance to the doorstep of UK enterprises.
Meeting the Moment: Why Now?
Security threats are growing, regulations are tightening, and customer trust is harder to earn — and easier to lose — than ever. Yet traditional compliance processes remain manual, reactive, and time-intensive. UK organisations are under pressure to prove compliance continuously, not just at audit time, and they need a smarter way to do it.
Through our partnership with Drata, Bytes is helping businesses across the UK turn governance, risk, compliance, and assurance from a burden into a competitive advantage. With deep technical and industry expertise, we’re guiding customers through their transformation with the automation, visibility, and speed that modern GRC demands.
Introducing Drata: Automation Built for Trust
Drata offers a best-in-class platform that automates evidence collection, monitors controls in real time, and helps companies achieve — and maintain — compliance with standards like ISO 27001, ISO 42001, SOC 2, GDPR, and Cyber Essentials Plus. Drata’s approach eliminates silos and spreadsheets, enabling security and compliance teams to operate with confidence and clarity.
From fast-growing startups to global enterprises, Drata’s customers report shorter audit cycles, reduced risk exposure, and a clear path to scaling trust as they scale their business.
What This Partnership Means for Bytes Customers
Partnering with Drata allows Bytes to bring even more value to our clients by offering:
- Tailored onboarding and strategic advisory from Bytes' experienced compliance and security consultants
- Access to Drata’s automated platform for always-on compliance and evidence readiness

- Seamless integration with your existing tech stack, including cloud infrastructure, HRIS, ticketing, and more
This collaboration aligns with our mission to help clients reduce risk, streamline operations, and make security a strategic enabler.
“Bytes has a deep legacy of helping UK enterprises secure their infrastructure, and we’re proud to join forces to bring our modern trust management platform to their customers,” said Kevin Kriebel, SVP of Business Development at Drata. “Together, we’re removing the friction from GRC and helping organisations prove — and improve — their security posture in real-time.”
