    Key Features

    • Anonymous Reporting Center: Employees can anonymously report compliance violations (e.g., fraud, harassment, bribery) through a secure portal accessed via the Employee Center. The system protects reporter identity and location by automatically logging out users, not linking submissions to employee records, and using CAPTCHA verification. Each report generates a unique report key and number for confidential follow-up. Investigators can communicate with reporters via a comments system while maintaining full anonymity.
    • AI-Driven Compliance Case Summarization: After upgrading to Now Assist for Integrated Risk Management (IRM) version 22.x, compliance analysts can leverage AI to generate concise summaries of compliance cases. Now Assist analyzes key attributes such as timelines, impacted areas, evidence, and actions, consolidating scattered data into a single narrative. Analysts can save and update summaries to keep case records current, reducing investigation time and improving decision consistency.
    • ServiceNow AI Platform Tiers: The AI platform offers three licensing tiers—Foundation, Advanced, and Prime—providing varying levels of AI capabilities, from basic insights to autonomous AI agents. Access to features depends on customer entitlements.

    New in the Australia release

    Early availability
    Report a compliance case anonymouslyReport compliance cases anonymously
    Employees can now use the Anonymous Reporting Center to report compliance violations such as fraud and embezzlement, workplace misconduct (harassment, discrimination), bribery and corruption, and other concerns without revealing their identity or location.
    Accessed through the Employee Center, the Anonymous Reporting Center portal automatically logs users out to enforce anonymity, creates case records without mapping to employee identity, and provides a unique report key and report number for secure follow-up communication.
    CAPTCHA‑based verification is used to authenticate submissions, and the system generates a report statement summarizing the case after submission. Employees can save a copy of their report for future reference. For security and confidentiality, the submitted information is not displayed again. Reports are routed to the appropriate compliance team based on the nature of the concern.
    Throughout the investigation process:
    • Investigators can request additional information through a comments system visible to the reporter
    • Reporters can follow up on their case using their report key to check progress and respond to questions
    • All interactions maintain reporter anonymity at every step; no identity or location data is ever captured or linked
    This enhancement enables organizations to build trust, mitigate risks before escalation, and ensures regulatory compliance with whistleblower protection requirements.
    GRC case summarization skill for compliance casesAI-driven compliance case summarization
    After upgrading Now Assist for Integrated Risk Management (IRM) application to version 22.x, Compliance analysts can use the case summarization feature to quickly understand a compliance case without manually reviewing every field, attachment, or related list. Now Assist analyzes key case attributes—such as timelines, impacted areas, evidence, and actions—and generates a structured summary directly inside the compliance case.
    This solves a common problem: case data is often lengthy, scattered across multiple related lists, and difficult for analysts to digest efficiently. Analysts can also save and edit summaries as case data evolves, ensuring the record stays current.
    By consolidating all relevant information into a single, coherent narrative, Now Assist reduces investigation time, improves consistency across reviewers, and supports faster decision-making.
