Getting a security certification like SOC 2 or ISO 27001 traditionally means a team scrambling to gather evidence — screenshots of access controls, logs, policies — right before an audit, then doing it all again next year. Vanta connects directly to a company's actual cloud accounts, HR systems and tools, continuously checks that the real settings match what a given framework requires, and keeps the evidence ready year-round instead of as a once-a-year fire drill. Vanta covers continuous automated compliance monitoring across 400+ integrations, an AI "Vanta Agent" that helps draft security-questionnaire responses and policies, third-party vendor risk management, a public-facing "Trust Center" for showing customers and prospects a company's compliance posture, streamlined audit evidence collection, and custom monitoring tests for a company's specific control requirements. With 16,000+ customers including Cursor, Snowflake, GitHub and Duolingo, and a Q2 2026 Forrester Wave Leader ranking in GRC platforms, it's one of the most widely adopted compliance-automation tools among tech companies specifically.
