Overview

Vanta is the leading Trust Management Platform that simplifies and centralizes security for organizations of all sizes. The platform enables a holistic visibility into an organization’s risk, enriches those findings with contextual data, and helps remediate and track issues within an organization—all in a way that’s demonstrable to customers and partners.

SOC 2 reports are absolutely critical for establishing trust and closing deals. But before Vanta, getting certified required tens of thousands of dollars and months of work for emerging companies. This meant most organizations skipped the compliance process altogether, leaving themselves open to security breaches and hefty fines due to non-compliance. This is why CEO Christina Cacioppo pioneered the Automated Compliance category in 2018.

But compliance automation was only the beginning. While achieving compliance reports were vital to doing business, they merely reflected a moment in time. Achieving a certification to land a business deal wasn’t enough. Organizations were increasingly demanding ongoing proof that any organization or partner they did business with continued to be secure and compliant. This was key to building deeper relationships with customers and expanding the business between both companies.

Over time, as automated compliance became the norm, Vanta saw an amazing byproduct—an entire generation of SaaS companies who actively began thinking about and managing risk from Day 1. This virtuous cycle between growing revenue and strengthening security has continued to drive expectations of trust higher across the industry.

This is why Vanta has evolved from compliance automation to an end-to-end Trust Management Platform that proactively helps organizations prevent risks—like breaches or falling out of compliance.

Today, Vanta is a high-velocity success story. The company has raised $203 million at a $1.65 billion valuation from leading investors Craft Ventures, Sequoia and Y Combinator and CrowdStrike.
