With the Drata integration, Plerion delivers daily evidence mapped to your compliance framework requirements in Drata, helping your team reduce manual effort and stay audit-ready.
Note: This is a one-way outbound integration. Evidence created or updated in Plerion will appear in Drata, but changes made in Drata will not sync back to Plerion.

​
What Plerion sends to Drata

​
Controls

Plerion creates a new control for each compliance framework you select. Each control is mapped to the relevant requirements of the framework.

​
Evidence

Plerion generates an Excel Spreadsheet (.xlsx) report containing Plerion findings relevant to the framework requirements across your chosen cloud accounts. For example, for the ISO 27001:2022 requirement A.5.15 Access control, Plerion includes S3 bucket Block Public Access findings in the spreadsheet. All evidence is reported against the PLERION control in Drata.

Evidence delivery schedule

Plerion sends evidence to Drata once per day, based on the most recent scans of your selected cloud accounts.

​
Steps to integrate Drata with Plerion

Plerion uses a Drata API key to send evidence. You will first need to create an API key in Drata, then connect it in Plerion and finally set up a workflow.

​
Create a Drata API key

1

Go to Settings in Drata

2

Select API Keys on the Settings page

3

Click on the Create API Key button

4

Enter API key details

  • Name: Plerion
  • Expiration date: Set an expiration date for your API key
  • Allowed IP addresses: Leave empty
  • Scope: Plerion needs the following permissions:
    • Read and write access to Controls
    • Read and write access to Evidence Library
    • Read access to Frameworks
    • Read access to Workspaces
    • Read access to Users
5
