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.

Vanta announced a partnership with Crowdstrike to extend its security offerings and assist Crowdstrike’s customers with compliance. The partnership includes deep product integration between the two companies, Vanta’s inclusion in the Crowdstrike store, and Crowdstrike investing in Vanta’s Series B round.

“Compliance is critical to ensure that the proper guardrails are in place for growing organizations, and Vanta is a leader in compliance automation through seamless integrations with the most in-demand security and infrastructure providers,” said Michael Sentonas, chief technology officer at CrowdStrike. “We chose to invest in Vanta because the team shares our vision of breaking down silos and unifying data across an organization.”

The two companies announced the customer-centric partnership at Fal.Con 2022, CrowdStrike’s in-person cybersecurity conference from September. Fal.Con hosts discussions about the future of cybersecurity amongst IT professionals, CrowdStrike experts, security thought leaders, and technical advisors.
