What is agentless GRC?
Agentless GRC collects compliance evidence through read-only APIs instead of endpoint agents. Learn how it works for SOC 2, ISO 27001, and DPDP.

Short answer
Agentless GRC gathers audit evidence without installing software agents on servers or laptops.
It connects to cloud, identity, and ticketing systems with read-only APIs.
AUDIX GRC uses this model so teams stay audit-ready without agent sprawl.
Why teams choose agentless collection
Traditional GRC often relies on screenshots, spreadsheets, and email threads.
Agents add install, update, and permission work across every host.
Read-only API sync pulls live signals from systems you already run.
That keeps MFA, encryption, and access reviews closer to real posture.
How AUDIX applies agentless GRC
AUDIX maps controls once across SOC 2, ISO 27001, DPDP, RBI, SEBI, and CERT-In.
Evidence refreshes through OAuth connectors to AWS, GCP, Azure, and identity providers.
A guided 30-day blueprint sequences gap closure and auditor-ready export.
Credentials stay encrypted in transit and at rest with customer-managed keys.
When agentless GRC fits
It fits cloud-first SaaS and product teams selling to enterprises.
It fits Indian organizations balancing DPDP with global trust reports.
It fits security and compliance leads who want continuous control monitoring.
