PROJECT ROUND-UP
Drata has opened of its new San Francisco headquarters, signaling a long-term investment in customers, talent and the trust ecosystem.
The milestone follows on the heels of Drata’ s five-year anniversary and 190 % year-over-year enterprise customer growth, advancing its vision of becoming the trust layer between companies and leadership in shaping the evolution of governance, risk, compliance and assurance.
TA Realty, together with its data center development arm, TA Digital Group( TADG) are selling two hyperscale data center buildings totaling 745,000 square feet and 165 megawatts of IT load capacity in Leesburg, Virginia.
The facilities represent the first two completed and fully leased buildings within a planned five-building, 450-megawatt hyperscale data center campus developed for a single hyperscale tenant.
“ Being able to assemble the land to support a development of this scale, which also included partnering with some of the local utilities to add additional infrastructure that will not only support this project but provide for growth in the surrounding area, is also part of our strategy in these Tier 1 markets,” said Tim Shaheen, Partner, TA Realty and Chief Development Officer, TADG.“ The scale of this campus enabled the delivery of two independent substations to support grid power, providing a level of redundancy and capacity that is increasingly difficult to achieve in core markets.”
TA Realty has built a scaled data center platform comprising more than 12 projects owned or controlled across its investment vehicles, representing nearly 3 gigawatts of power capacity.
TADG oversees the development and construction of these projects and is based in nearby Ashburn, Virginia, at the center of“ Data Center Alley,” the world’ s largest concentration of data centers and a critical hub for global internet traffic.
After crossing $ 100 million in annual recurring revenue in its first four years, Drata outpaced its growth rate in 2025, reflecting the rising demand in the AI era for trust management that unifies governance, risk and assurance across a single platform:
“ Five years ago, we founded Drata to solve a fundamental gap: the way trust was proven couldn’ t keep pace with how modern businesses operate,” said Adam Markowitz, CEO and cofounder, Drata.
“ Today, trust is the infrastructure behind every business interaction, especially as AI changes how decisions are made. As Drata continues to grow, we’ re excited to keep building the system of record that makes trust continuous, operational, and embedded into how companies manage risk and execute with confidence.”
To support its continued growth and long-term vision, Drata is also launching the New Drata Experience – a redesigned platform experience that makes trust evidence, risk signals and assurance outcomes easier to understand and act on.
The updated interface reflects Drata’ s belief that trust should be accessible, actionable and embedded into daily operations – not buried in reports.
Launched, too, is the When trust meets AI podcast featuring conversations with security leaders and builders navigating how AI is reshaping compliance, risk and assurance.
