The Ethena team is excited to announce the availability of our newest product integration with Vanta, making tracking for cybersecurity training easier than ever!

TL;DR: Ethena’s integration with Vanta automatically syncs Ethena training completion records to the appropriate Vanta framework as evidence for compliance. During setup, you’ll connect your Ethena training assignments to the right framework, and the data syncs, ensuring your Vanta records are always audit-ready.

What is Vanta?

Vanta provides automated security and compliance solutions that help businesses achieve and maintain compliance frameworks such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, GDPR, HIPAA, and more. Their platform streamlines compliance that is crucial for data security and privacy in industries like tech and finance.

Vanta’s platform automates a variety of compliance tasks, such as monitoring security controls, collecting evidence, and generating audit-ready reports, which can help companies quickly and efficiently meet compliance requirements. It’s especially popular among startups and tech companies that need to achieve security certifications as they grow, allowing them to build trust with customers, partners, and investors by showing a commitment to security and regulatory compliance.

How does the integration work?

Ethena’s Vanta integration allows admins to integrate both Ethena’s training records and system access records with Vanta. This allows customers to automate tracking to show whether tests are passing or failing for the company’s specified Vanta frameworks. 

WIth this integration, companies can seamlessly prove compliance without the manual effort of collecting data from multiple sources.

How does this make my life easier?

  • Saves time: No more manual data collection for compliance frameworks.
  • Simplifies compliance: Automatically track training and system access tests to meeting frameworks like SOC 2 and ISO 27001. 
  • Audit-ready: Keeps your Vanta records up-to-date for smoother audits.
