FAQ
MVSP is a security checklist for B2B software companies and business process outsourcing providers. It defines essential security controls across four areas: business, application design, application implementation, and operations. It gives growing companies a practical baseline for demonstrating security readiness.
MVSP relies on annual self-assessment, so no formal audit is required. Organizations can choose to work with a third party for additional assurance, but that does not certify compliance. As a result, MVSP is typically faster and less expensive to achieve than frameworks like SOC 2 or ISO 27001.
MVSP groups controls into four areas.
- Business controls: vulnerability reporting, incident response, and security training
- Application design controls: SSO, encryption, and logging
- Application implementation controls: vulnerability prevention and secure software builds
- Operational controls: physical access, logical access, backups, and disaster recovery
Together, these controls provide a foundation for secure products and services.
Yes. MVSP shares up to 20% overlap with SOC 2 and ISO 27001. The controls, policies, and evidence you complete in Vanta automatically map to larger frameworks, reducing duplicate work and helping you move faster toward your next certification.
Based on available data, most organizations spend about 40 hours preparing for MVSP. Vanta simplifies the process with automated tests and prebuilt policy templates, helping you demonstrate security readiness faster.
Yes. Vanta Trust Center shows your verified security controls in real time, including MVSP, before you complete SOC 2 or ISO 27001. Prospects can review your security posture, access gated documents, and complete due diligence on their own, helping you build trust and move deals forward sooner.
