Summary
Archer Announces availability of Archer Exchange Release for November 2025. This update contains the following new and updated offerings.
Offerings
App-Packs
App-Packs provide prebuilt applications addressing adjacent or supporting governance, risk and compliance (GRC) processes. App-Packs are built in a similar fashion to Archer’s out-of-the-box use cases, but they are smaller and are intended to address a very specific risk issue that addresses an industry, geographic, or niche need.
- Archer DORA-Aligned Register of Information – rearchitected to align with the latest Digital Resilience Operational Act (DORA) reporting requirements enhancing flexibility and automation in managing Registers of Information (ROI). Key improvements include dynamic ROI scoping, automated record creation, and the ability to exclude items from external reporting while retaining internal visibility. New features include point-in-time snapshots and DORA validation checks to support compliance and historical analysis.
- The following app-packs have transitioned to licensed offerings using core applications instead of On-Demand Applications and recertified on Archer Platform Release 2024.11.
- Archer Complaints Tracking
- Archer Exam Management
- Archer Gift Registration
- Archer Support Request
