Perplexity

Claude Code tracks Drata compliance

Run `drata_list_frameworks` directly in your terminal to check your SOC 2 readiness. Claude Code pipes this data into your deployment logs. You can verify if your latest infrastructure changes pass security checks by calling `drata_list_assets`. It confirms if your new resources meet encryption standards before you merge.

Audit personnel security with Claude Code

Claude Code uses `drata_list_personnel` to generate a quick status report for your team. It identifies anyone with overdue security training or missing MDM enrollment. Pipe the output of `drata_get_person` into your own scripts to automate onboarding notifications. It handles the data retrieval so you don't have to navigate web portals.

Monitor Drata tests in CI/CD

Claude Code executes `drata_list_tests` as part of your pipeline. If a test fails, it reports the error directly to your terminal session. You can use `drata_get_control` to pull the specific auditor language for any failed test. It helps your team understand why a security check is failing without manual research.
