Vanta AI

Vanta is a security compliance automation platform that uses AI to dramatically reduce the effort required to achieve and maintain security certifications including SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, GDPR, and others. The platform monitors security controls continuously, collects evidence automatically, and uses AI to identify and address compliance gaps.

Vanta's automated evidence collection connects to the company's cloud infrastructure, development tools, HR systems, and security tools to automatically gather the evidence required for compliance audits. This automated collection eliminates the manual evidence gathering that traditionally consumes weeks of engineering and security team time before audits.

The platform's AI gap analysis identifies which required controls are not yet implemented or are improperly implemented, providing specific guidance on what needs to be addressed to achieve compliance. For companies building compliance programs from scratch, this AI-guided gap analysis creates a clear prioritized roadmap.

Vanta's continuous monitoring tracks compliance status in real time, alerting the security team when controls drift out of compliance due to configuration changes, new systems being added, or policy violations. This continuous monitoring maintains compliance between formal audits rather than only addressing compliance at annual review time.

For startups and growing companies that need SOC 2 certification to close enterprise sales or meet contractual requirements, Vanta provides the fastest path to certification by automating the most time-consuming aspects of the compliance program. The AI-assisted approach enables compliance programs that would otherwise require dedicated security engineers.
