Consistent advice on security and best practices
What do you like best about the product?
Vanta provides a lot of actionable tasks to make our system more secure and reliable. It is easy to connect to our services and ingest the signals that create the tasks. The monitoring part also helps by sending a daily digest of new issues the team needs to work on.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes, refreshing the tests when you make the changes to pass takes a little more time than desired. Also, some tasks lack more details on why they fail and how to fix them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We got into Vanta to start being certified on HIPAA and SOC2. It helped us pave the way to the certifications and evolve on some of the best practices for having a secure infrastructure.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Once you're connecting to all essential vendors, Vanta quickly shows where the services contain potential issues and where they may be located. You can decide with their recommendations if you need to improve or not. For unsupported vendors, they explain the steps to take into consideration for self-evaluating any potential threats. They took care of all the big complicated vendors with ease.

Provides a spotlight into the darkest corners of your enterprise.
What do you like best about the product?
Having a tool that can scan for areas in our infrastructure that we may not even know exists and point out accounts that do not have MFA on them helps us be proactive.
What do you dislike about the product?
Mac OS Keychain not being considered a password management application because it is there out of the box. This can be circumvented by installing a different password manager, but no mechanism ensures a manager is used, only installed. This seems overly pedantic and does not address good password hygiene.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Still in the early stages, but it has shown us a lot of 'low hanging fruit' that were quick hits to fix up. It also identified some databases that did not have alarms set.

UI is easy to follow and understand, the findings are easy to find and figure out what needs to be remedied.
