We love technology that makes complex work easier to manage. Vanta brings compliance closer to the systems our team already uses, helping us gather evidence, track relevant controls and keep compliance part of everyday digital delivery.
Making ISO 27001 and SOC 2 more manageable
For organisations developing SaaS products and websites, security assurance is an important part of building customer confidence. ISO 27001 provides a standard for an information security management system, while SOC 2 examines controls relevant to the services an organisation provides. Both require organisations to demonstrate how their processes and controls work in practice.
Collecting that evidence manually can involve spreadsheets, screenshots and repeated requests across teams. Vanta’s automated compliance platform helps organise evidence collection and monitor relevant controls. It also maps controls across frameworks, helping reduce duplicated effort where requirements overlap.
Connecting compliance to AWS, Jira and Bitbucket
The connection to the underlying tech stack is a big part of Vanta’s appeal. Its integration library connects compliance activity with cloud services, version control and task management tools. Once configured with the appropriate access, supported integrations can collect evidence automatically.
AWS: Vanta gathers evidence from supported AWS resources, helping teams monitor relevant controls across the infrastructure hosting their websites and SaaS applications.
Bitbucket: Vanta reads data from connected Bitbucket workspaces to support compliance monitoring and evidence collection, bringing development tooling into the same compliance process.
Jira: Vanta connects with projects and tickets to gather evidence and support automated ticketing workflows. That helps teams manage follow-up work through a tool they already use.
For us, this makes compliance easier to fit into the way digital products are built and maintained. Evidence from infrastructure and development tools becomes easier to bring together, with less manual chasing between systems.
Continuous monitoring for a changing tech stack
A website or SaaS platform rarely stands still. New releases, infrastructure updates and changes in user access can all affect the controls an organisation relies on. Evidence collected for an earlier audit may no longer reflect the current environment.
Vanta runs recurring automated checks on supported, connected systems and highlights controls that need attention. This gives teams an ongoing view of their compliance status and helps them respond as their environment changes. Refresh timing varies by integration and check, so continuous monitoring does not mean every change is detected instantly.
That visibility is what we value: a more current picture of relevant controls, backed by evidence that is collected as part of normal operations.
AI and APIs add another dimension
AI has added another dimension to software development, helping teams build faster and introduce new capabilities across SaaS platforms and websites. Alongside multiple APIs, cloud services and third-party integrations, that creates more connections to manage and more changes to track.
Vanta brings evidence from supported, connected systems into one place, with continuous automated compliance checks that help us keep sight of relevant controls as our tech stack evolves. Coverage depends on the integrations and controls configured; individual APIs, AI features and application behaviour still need appropriate review and testing.
For teams developing connected digital products, that makes a central view of compliance particularly useful. It helps keep supporting evidence organised while the technology around it continues to change.
Less administration, clearer ownership
Automating evidence collection gives teams more time to investigate findings, improve processes and address the issues that matter. Connecting follow-up tasks to existing workflows also helps make responsibility clearer.
This is how Vanta has streamlined our compliance processes: by bringing evidence, monitoring and follow-up work closer together. It helps us make compliance part of maintaining our platforms, alongside development, infrastructure management and ongoing improvement.
Why it works for us
Good digital delivery depends on the systems and processes behind the experience. We appreciate how Vanta connects those operational details with the evidence needed to demonstrate responsible security practices.
ISO 27001 certification and SOC 2 reporting still require effective controls, clear ownership and independent assessment. Vanta helps organise and automate the supporting work, making it easier to maintain a consistent approach as websites, SaaS platforms and their tech stacks grow.
For us, that is the reason to love Vanta: practical integration and automation that make compliance easier to manage within the technology we work with every day.
