Accelerating security solutions for small businesses 

Tagore offers strategic services to small businesses. 

A partnership that can scale 

Tagore prioritized finding a managed compliance partner with an established product, dedicated support team, and rapid release rate.

Standing out from competitors

Tagore's partnership with Vanta enhances its strategic focus and deepens client value, creating differentiation in a competitive market.

Over the past month, we’ve rolled out several new capabilities, including:

  • Influenced revenue reporting in Trust Centers 
  • CIS benchmark tests for Amazon EKS
  • Brand new integrations
  • Plus additional updates!

Influenced revenue reporting in Trust Center 

You can now track influenced revenue in your Vanta Trust Center. We’ve expanded our Salesforce integration to enable you to report on opportunities that have accessed your Trust Center along with their dollar size, stage, and owner. 

With this integration, you can demonstrate the impact of proactive trust management on your business and quantify the ROI of your security program. 

This feature is available in our Collaborate and Scale plans as well as to customers that purchase Vanta Trust Center standalone. Learn more about our pricing here

New Vanta Tests: CIS Benchmarks for AWS EKS and CIS Certification

You can now access pre-built automated tests to verify Kubernetes is aligned to the CIS AWS EKS benchmark, with more to come. These tests enable you to harness the power of Vanta’s continuous monitoring to streamline your security program needs. 

Some of the tests are included on the Core package, while all available tests are included on Collaborate and Scale packages. If you’re interested in learning more about automating CIS Benchmarks for AWS EKS, reach out to our team.

 Alongside creation of these new tests, our team has also achieved CIS Software Security Certification.

12 new integrations, multi-instance support, and deeper integration with Tenable

This past month, Vanta released twelve new integrations including XFA (MDM), SpeakUpNow (Communication), Coana (Vulnerabilities) and Scale AI (Access). Along with new integrations, our team expanded integration capabilities with Datadog and GitLab which now support organizations with multiple instances. 

If you use Tenable for Vulnerability Management, you can now access Tenable’s VPR score to calculate SLAs and provide proof of your vulnerability management program to your auditor, right within Vanta.

See all integrations or let us know about additional ones you need.

Multi-language policies support

You can now store multiple documents on a single policy, which means that if you have a policy that is translated to multiple languages, you can track and manage the different versions from a centralized place. When creating a new policy, all you need to do is select the languages supported by it to be able to upload multiple versions of the policy in different languages. Your employees can then read the policy in their preferred language.

Bulk upload custom evidence

You can now use a spreadsheet to bulk upload custom evidence into Vanta, including the ability to map each line to one or more controls (standard or custom). With this new capability, you can streamline your audit preparation and save time whenever you have a large amount of evidence that you’d like to add to Vanta. Once added, the system will validate the data and you can resolve any issues before finalizing the upload.

To try it out for yourself, go to the Documents page in Vanta, click the “Add document” button in the upper right corner, and select “Import documents” from the dropdown. 

Try it out

Log in to your Vanta account to try out these new features. If you’re not a Vanta customer and want to learn more, request a demo.

As always, we welcome your feedback. Let us know what you think by reaching out to your Customer Success Manager. And stay in the loop on Vanta news on LinkedIn.
