Vanta partners with HITRUST to automate e1 assessments

We're thrilled to announce our partnership with HITRUST®, making Vanta the first automated compliance solution for the HITRUST e1 Assessment and a reseller of the HITRUST MyCSF platform

This partnership addresses the increasing demand for verified security and compliance, especially with rising data breaches in healthcare. Vanta’s HITRUST e1 Certification offers third-party verified assurance of comprehensive security measures, simplifying compliance with 44 new controls, 72 automated tests, and extensive document templates.

Explore all of our integrations and let us know about additional ones you need.

Introducing Vanta’s new UI

We are excited to announce our new user interface (UI), which is designed to make it easier to find and act on data and information in Vanta. 



To give customers who joined prior to May 31, 2024, extra time to get used to the new UI, you can opt in or out of it from today until July 1. Look for the blue banner at the top of your Vanta UI and the link under “Settings.” Starting July 1, the new UI will be the only available interface.

Trust Center Updates: Resource visibility and linking multiple Trust Centers

We are excited to announce two new features for Trust Centers: “Shareable” visibility for sensitive documents and a Trust Center linking feature for companies with multiple companies. 

 

Some documents are too sensitive to be public. That’s why we’ve introduced a new visibility option called "Shareable" visibility for Trust Centers. This feature allows you to hide documents from your public Trust Center while still sharing them externally. Set this visibility in the Knowledge Base that powers the Questionnaire Automation and Trust Center products, giving you more control over your shared resources. 

Check out this Help Article for more information about visibility options for Trust Center.

For companies with multiple Trust Centers, we've added a feature that links all your Trust Centers together. Previously, buyers had to find each Trust Center URL independently, making it difficult to access comprehensive security information. Our new Trust Center picker consolidates access within a single interface, enhancing the user experience. Prospects and buyers can easily navigate between Trust Centers using a dropdown menu in the header, providing a seamless experience. 

To learn how to link your Trust Centers, read this Help Article.

These updates ensure you can manage sensitive documents securely and provide an improved navigation experience for your prospects and buyers.

New AI Risk module in Vanta's training library

We've expanding our security and privacy training library with a new AI Risk Training module. This module is designed to help customers meet NIST AI RMF and ISO 42001 requirements. It provides an overview of AI terms, emerging laws, regulations, and key principles.

Customers can preview the content from the Checklists page on the Vanta platform. This module, available exclusively within Vanta, makes it easier for customers to implement supported AI governance frameworks.
