## Version 3.1 {#ariaid-title2}

For the October 2026 release of ServiceNow Otto for Vault version 3.1, use an agentic workflow to classify sensitive data across a large table estate without labeling each column by hand, and stay informed about data protection coverage with a monthly Vault coverage report email.

### What's new {#servicenow-vault-rn-2026-10__servicenow-vault-rn-2026-10-new}

Agentic classification for ServiceNow assets{#servicenow-vault-rn-2026-10__servicenow-vault-rn-2026-10-new-feature-1}
:   Classify sensitive data across a large table estate without labeling each column by hand. Select a category of ServiceNow assets in the Data Catalog, and the agent recommends a data class for each column in scope,
    with the reason for each recommendation. Recommendations are based on schema metadata, such as table and column names and any existing classifications. Review the recommendations and then confirm to apply them. The
    classifications appear on the data assets after the next ServiceNow metadata collector run.

Vault coverage report email{#servicenow-vault-rn-2026-10__servicenow-vault-rn-2026-10-new-feature-3}
:   Stay informed about how much of your sensitive data is protected with a Vault coverage report email. Active administrators receive it on the last Monday of each month. The email is sent only when Vault finds sensitive
    columns on your instance.

### What's changed {#servicenow-vault-rn-2026-10__servicenow-vault-rn-2026-10-changed}

:   The Vault onboarding email uses an updated template design.
{#servicenow-vault-rn-2026-10__servicenow-vault-rn-2026-10-changed-list}

## Brazil Early Availability {#ariaid-title3}

ServiceNow Vault reduces the effort of monitoring and protecting sensitive
data, adding AI-generated Insights, code signing metrics, and log export monitoring to Vault Console, generating module access policies as part of field encryption, and applying Zero Trust Access default policies on install.

### What's new {#servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09__servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09-new}

[AI-generated security posture summary](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=vault-insights&version=brazil&pubname=brazil-platform-security&ft:locale=en-US){#servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09__servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09-new-feature-1}

:   Reduce the time you spend interpreting individual charts by reading an AI-generated summary of your data security, with a recommended next step for each area. Insights appears at the top of the Vault console home page and reports
    on data discovery, classification, and data protection.

[Field encryption and auto-generate access policies agentic workflow](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=now-assist-vault-field-encryption-access-policies&version=brazil&pubname=brazil-platform-security&ft:locale=en-US){#servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09__servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09-new-feature-3}
:   Keep encrypted fields readable for the roles that need them by creating the
    module access policies as part of field encryption. Request encryption for a table
    field, review the roles that currently have access to it, and confirm the final list.
    The workflow creates a module access policy for each confirmed role and then encrypts
    the field, so you no longer review access control lists or Access Observer logs to
    build the role list yourself.

[Zero Trust Access default policies](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=vault-default-policies-configs&version=brazil&pubname=brazil-platform-security&ft:locale=en-US){#servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09__servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09-new-feature-4}
:   Protect access to data from the start by automatically applying default step-up authentication policies when you install Zero Trust Access with ServiceNow Vault. Review these default policies at any time from Vault
    Console.

[Code signing activity metrics in Vault Console](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=vault-tools&version=brazil&pubname=brazil-platform-security&ft:locale=en-US){#servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09__servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09-new-feature-5}
:   Monitor code signing activity across your instance by tracking the create, update, and delete operations applied to code signing enabled records over the past week, and see which tables have the most such
    records.

[Log Export Service export monitoring widget](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=vault-tools&version=brazil&pubname=brazil-platform-security&ft:locale=en-US){#servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09__servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09-new-feature-6}
:   Monitor your instance's log export activity by tracking total data exported over the past six months, the topics that export the most data, and the data exported by each topic so far in the current month.

[ServiceNow Vault in Admin Home](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=install-vault-suite&version=brazil&pubname=brazil-platform-security&ft:locale=en-US){#servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09__servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09-new-feature-7}
:   Discover and install ServiceNow Vault from Admin Home. Instances with a ServiceNow Vault entitlement show a ServiceNow Vault tile, where an administrator can install Vault Suite and then open the Vault Console from the
    Configuration Console.

Vault onboarding email notification{#servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09__servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09-new-feature-8}
:   Receive an email notification when ServiceNow Vault onboarding completes on your instance.
{#servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09__servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09-new-list}

### What's changed {#servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09__servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09-changed}

[ServiceNow Otto name change](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=now-assist-vault-landing&version=brazil&pubname=brazil-platform-security&ft:locale=en-US){#servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09__servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09-changed-feature-1}
:   ServiceNow Otto introduced AI on the platform. As that experience has evolved, there's a new name for the experience. ServiceNow Otto® is the conversational AI platform integrated into ServiceNow workflows. It provides agentic capabilities, supports multimodal interactions across web, mobile, and messaging channels, and enables autonomous orchestration for cross-system workflows.

Role masking in the Access Observer and Field Encryption workflows{#servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09__servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09-changed-feature-2}
:   The security_admin role is no longer used as the role masking agent for the Access Observer and Field Encryption agentic workflows. Following least-privilege principles, these workflows run without elevating to security_admin.

Default policy naming{#servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09__servicenow-vault-rn-2026-09-changed-feature-3}
:   Default policies provisioned for field encryption, data privacy, Zero Trust Access, and Log Export Service are prefixed with Vault by Default, so you can distinguish policies that ServiceNow provisioned from policies your organization created.
