Vanta continues AWS momentum with Security Competency achievement

Vanta has achieved the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Security Competency status. This designation recognizes that Vanta excels at providing deep AWS technical expertise and integrations that help customers achieve their cloud security and compliance goals.

‍

Over half of Vanta’s 8,000+ customers leverage AWS. Achieving the AWS Security Competency reinforces our continual commitment to delivering deeply automated, integrated product experiences. Monitoring more than 43 million vulnerabilities and 14 million assets globally, Vanta aims to help our customers maintain the security and compliance of their cloud infrastructure at scale.

Vanta’s commitment to security and putting our customers first

In order to obtain Security Competency status with AWS, we participated in a thorough and rigorous evaluation that ensured Vanta adheres to AWS’ security best practices. By achieving this status, Vanta aims to prove our commitment to security, ensuring we deliver secure products and experiences to our customers. 

‍

Security Competency partners demonstrate secure and efficient connections to customer AWS environments, deep introspection and monitoring of a wide range of AWS resources, and crucially help customers seamlessly manage compliance across their AWS organizations and accounts. 

‍

“Achieving our Security Competency proves that Vanta is an ideal partner for any company using AWS. Competency is a clear sign that Vanta integrates easily to any environment and pulls the right data to assess and maintain posture and compliance.”

- Jadee Hanson, Chief Information Security Officer, Vanta

‍

Additionally, Vanta’s rich integrations to 350+ other tools including version control systems, identity protection providers, human resource information systems, and more means that customers can manage compliance at scale all in one place.

‍

Deep integrations across a breadth of AWS resources 

With Vanta, AWS customers have access to a market-leading integration that supports over 40 resource types like AWS CloudTrail, AWS EKS Clusters, Amazon Inspector Vulnerability Scanning, and more. This integration powers over 100 automated tests that continuously collect evidence for audits, and validate the status of your security and compliance controls. This continuous controls monitoring saves significant amounts of time in audits, and allows you to shift left and address problems earlier.

‍

“With Vanta’s continuous monitoring, rather than checking things once a year and frantically scrambling to fix them, we can deal with issues as they arise.”

- Michael Pearce, Head of Information Security & Compliance, Peak

‍

Vanta’s AWS tests go far beyond the basics to continuously monitor and highlight areas of non-compliance and potential security misconfigurations. For example, Vanta provides pre-built automated tests that check for your alignment against the CIS Amazon EKS Benchmark, alerting you to configuration issues and providing remediation guidance so you can improve your security posture quickly and easily—and long before an audit.

‍

“It’s almost like having an [internal] auditor full-time on the team, just constantly auditing our business, and that’s super helpful for us.”

- Daryl Pinkal, Chief Technology Officer, Clozd
