Trusty is an instantly available, customizable and secure web-based whistleblowing solution developed by compliance experts. It is built to support internal reporting obligations under the EU Whistleblower Protection Directive and related national whistleblowing laws.<\/p>\n\n

The solution consists of customizable front-end webpages for whistleblowers and an intuitive case management tool for your team.<\/p>\n\n

The reporting channel is a dedicated web page where employees and stakeholders can submit reports anonymously or identified, depending on their choice and your configuration. Once a report is submitted, a secure inbox is created for confidential two-way communication between the reporter and your designated responders.<\/p>\n\n

The case management tool lets you receive, document and handle reports in one place. Depending on your plan, Trusty supports report handling, status tracking, notes, file attachments, retention settings, follow-up activities, secure reporter dialogue, notifications, workflows and reporting insights.<\/p>\n\n

Also available: Cybersecurity Vulnerability Reporting for organisations subject to the NIS2 Directive. Lite, Standard and Advanced plans are available depending on the number of users, reporting languages, notifications, workflows and governance features your organisation needs.<\/p>\n\n

The plugin is free to install and connects your WordPress site to Trusty, a paid whistleblowing service. Every plan starts with a free 7-day trial. Visit trusty.report\/plans<\/a> for current plans and pricing.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Upload the plugin files to the \/wp-content\/plugins\/trusty-whistleblowing-solution<\/code> directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.<\/li>\n
  2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' screen in WordPress.<\/li>\n
  3. Use the Settings screen to configure the plugin. Once activated, your unique Trusty reporting channel URL and a password setup link will be shown directly in WordPress and sent to your registered email address.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
    \n

    Is the plugin free?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    The WordPress plugin is free to install and use. It connects your site to Trusty, a paid whistleblowing service hosted in Germany. Every Trusty plan starts with a free 7-day trial, so you can try the solution before subscribing. After the trial, you choose a paid plan to keep your reporting channel active. See https:\/\/trusty.report\/plans\/ for current plans and pricing.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    Why do we need a whistleblowing channel?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    The EU Whistleblower Protection Directive requires many organizations to provide secure internal reporting channels, with specific obligations depending on company size, sector and national implementation.<\/p>\n\n

    But a whistleblowing channel is not only a legal requirement. It gives employees and stakeholders a safe way to raise concerns before issues escalate. Protecting reporters, documenting follow-up, promoting a speak-up culture and resolving problems internally can help reduce the cost, disruption and reputational damage of misconduct or compliance failures.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    How does signing up to Trusty help?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    When you sign up to Trusty, you will have your internal reporting channel set up in a matter of minutes, easier and faster than setting up an email account or telephone line. Trusty helps you receive reports, protect reporter confidentiality, document handling steps, manage follow-up and control access to sensitive information.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    What exactly is included in Trusty?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    Trusty has two parts: a reporting channel for whistleblowers and a case management tool for your team.<\/p>\n\n

    The reporting channel is a secure web page where employees and stakeholders can submit reports anonymously or identified, depending on their choice and your configuration. Reporters can access a private inbox for secure follow-up communication with your designated responders.<\/p>\n\n

    The case management tool lets you categorize reports, track status and follow-up, set retention periods, write notes, attach files and communicate securely with reporters. Additional users, languages, notifications, workflows, dashboards and governance features depend on the plan you choose.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    Does Trusty support Cybersecurity Vulnerability Reporting under NIS2?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    Yes. Cybersecurity Vulnerability Reporting is available on the Advanced plan, providing a dedicated secure channel for responsible disclosure from employees, researchers, external partners or other stakeholders, running on the same ISO 27001-certified infrastructure as the whistleblowing channel.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    Where is Trusty hosted and how secure is it?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    Trusty is hosted in a high-security data centre in Germany, certified to the ISO 27001 standard and provided by Hetzner Online GmbH. We use advanced encryption and conduct regular third-party penetration tests.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    What languages are supported?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    Language availability depends on your plan. Lite includes one reporting language, Standard includes two reporting languages, and Advanced includes all available reporting languages.<\/p>\n\n

    The case management tool is available in: Bulgarian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, Estonian, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Croatian, Hungarian, Irish, Italian, Latvian, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, and Swedish.<\/p>\n\n

    Localised whistleblowing policies reviewed by partner law firms are available for Germany, Italy, Spain, Poland, Czechia, and Slovakia.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    What plans are available?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    Trusty offers Lite, Standard and Advanced plans. All plans are billed annually and start with a free 7-day trial.<\/p>\n\n

    Lite is designed for small organisations that need one admin user, one reporting language, secure reporter dialogue and basic case handling.<\/p>\n\n

    Standard is designed for organisations that need team coverage, a second reporting language, structured reporting forms and email notifications when new reports are submitted.<\/p>\n\n

    Advanced is designed for organisations that need unlimited users, all languages, advanced workflows, reporting insights, customisation, supply-chain reporting and NIS2 cybersecurity vulnerability reporting.<\/p>\n\n

    What do I get when I sign up?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    Once you sign up you will receive the unique URL of your Trusty reporting channel, for example https:\/\/yourcompany.trusty.report<\/code>, together with a link to set your password. These details are shown directly in WordPress and also sent to your registered email address.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>","raw_excerpt":"Secure whistleblowing channel with case management and two-way reporter dialogue.
