NAVEX, the global leader in integrated risk and compliance management software, today announced it will reimagine its industry-leading WhistleB solution to further meet the needs of European-based organisations that want to build speak-up cultures while complying with increasing regulatory requirements.
Compliance is becoming more complex as organisations manage sensitive data, rising expectations for speak-up programs, and expanding regulatory obligations. Businesses need whistleblowing systems that help them meet requirements under the EU Whistleblower Protection Directive and prepare for the upcoming EU AI Act. From 2 August 2026, anonymous reporting of EU AI Act violations will be explicitly protected under the EU Whistleblowing Act.

“Whistleblowing cases often include highly sensitive information, so organisations need to know where and how that data is stored and how cases are handled across borders,” advises Erena Langley, Director of Regulatory Solutions at NAVEX. “Reports can include personal and confidential details, so teams need secure access, clear retention rules and the ability to remove sensitive information when needed.”
WhistleB protects sensitive cases and reporter anonymity with ISO/IEC 27001-aligned practices, GDPR-first architecture, encrypted communications, EU-based data storage, role-based permissions and MFA (Multi-Factor Authentication).
“Business leaders are experiencing operational pressure as teams need increasingly better case visibility, less manual triage and audit-ready documentation without adding complexity and processing time,” said Raj Sethuraman, President and Chief Product and Technology Officer at NAVEX. “WhistleB is built in Europe to support European businesses with global compliance. It is designed to adapt as regulatory needs and case complexity evolves. NAVEX will be releasing a host of product features over the coming months to address customer feedback.”
WhistleB’s new vision will provide more configurability, improved case handling depth, reporting visibility and AI-supported productivity enhancements. It will help businesses make investigations easier and more consistent, supported by a more intuitive experience for reporters and investigators.
