What do you think the next few years of audit look like? 🔮

Our Focus on the Future survey is a chance to put your perspective on the record.

Weigh in on how your audit team is handling new tech, new risks, and a changing workforce, and how the role could shift from here. The more perspectives we gather, the more useful the findings become for the whole profession.

Whether you're in audit, SOX, or controls, we'd love to hear from you. It only takes a few minutes.

When their old GRC software hit its limits, this university audit team needed a platform as invested in their success as they were.

See how they use Optro to gather real-time data, cut manual check-ins, and use AI at every stage of the audit cycle.

Most companies can tell you which employees can access what. Few can tell you what their AI systems have access to, or whether anyone's even checked.

That means your biggest cyber risk could be coming from inside the house.

It's Insider Threat Awareness Month: the prime season to learn about the dangers of an overprovisioned system that presents significant risk without anyone noticing. Since AI does exactly what it's told, it never asks whether the data it was given should have reached it in the first place. That's a glaring policy gap.

No one defined which data sources were approved, reviewed whether that access still matched the original purpose, or built in a way to catch it when it didn't. Access granted for one purpose keeps getting used for another purpose, with a permissions gap running exactly as configured.

Ask the harder question, then find out if your policy still matches how your team actually works. If it doesn't, we built something for that. ⬇️

Compliance officers rarely get credit when things go right, only attention when they don't. That's the nature of the job: catching what almost went wrong before anyone else even sees it.

Today we're recognizing the people doing that work inside an increasingly complex regulatory landscape. Happy National Compliance Officer Day! We'll see plenty of you at CRX ’26 in a few weeks. 🎉

Happy Auditor Proud Day! 🎉

Auditors are the reason a board can actually trust its own numbers. That's easy to take for granted and hard to replace, especially now that AI is changing how the work gets done. The judgment still has to be human. To every internal audit team turning raw data into something a business can act on, we see you, and we build for you.

FJ Management runs internal audit across fuel retail, oil and refining, banking, and insurance. Most audit teams would need four different playbooks for that.

So what did they do? Enter: Matt Sewell, their Head of Internal Audit. He built a workflow himself that connects our platform directly to AI tooling through MCP. Then he put together a library of calibrated review prompts, one for each audit activity.

Now the AI reviews with the same judgment Matt brings to his work, and every result is traceable back to the exact standard he set forth.

Optro is partnering with Carahsoft to bring our agentic GRC platform to the public sector!

As the Master Government Aggregator® for our vendor partners, Carahsoft will make Optro available to state, local, and educational (SLED) institutions through its reseller network and NASPO, OMNIA Partners, and Sourcewell contracts.

Public sector organizations face growing pressure to maximize taxpayer value and satisfy oversight requirements with limited resources. This partnership gives SLED entities the AI-driven visibility to catch audit and cyber risks before they become costly findings.
