What's New in Vanta: August 2026

What's new this month in Vanta? Agentic onboarding—Upload your controls, policies, and custom framework docs. The agent builds your framework and suggests policies and evidence (nothing writes without your approval). Dark mode—Now available, and follows your OS or browser setting automatically. C5:2026—Germany's leading cloud security attestation standard is now a supported framework. Customer Commitments—A contract can carry 50+ commitments. The Vanta Agent checks each against your live program and ranks them by the risk they carry.

Run continuous compliance with Vanta

Plenty of tools can check a box at audit time. Vanta runs continuous compliance, so you're secure every day, not just the week before your audit. It runs on the Trust Graph, Vanta's data and intelligence layer that connects 400+ tools across your stack (cloud platforms, identity providers, task trackers, and more) and gives specialized agents the context to automate accurately. The difference isn't how many tools you connect. It's what happens after. In this video, you'll see Vanta in action.

Manage internal and external risk all from Vanta

Between audits, most GRC teams are managing risk with one eye closed. Vanta gives you the whole view: internal and third-party risk in one connected system, monitored continuously, not once a year. Vanta's Third-Party Risk Management discovers new vendors, cuts assessment time by 50%, and watches your vendor landscape for breaches and emerging threats. Vanta's Risk Management runs your full enterprise program: risk register, likelihood and impact scoring, residual risk, treatment plans, and board-ready reporting.

Automate your GRC program with the Vanta Agent

Your compliance program never sits still. Controls drift, tests fail, policies go out of date. The Vanta Agent keeps up. It has full context on your program through Vanta's Trust Graph, so it never hits a dead end. It always recommends the next step. The Trust Graph is Vanta's data and intelligence layer, powered by 400+ integrations that map your risks, controls, policies, and vendors. Add continuous monitoring, risk scoring, automated testing, and framework mapping, and the Agent works with the full picture.

Building the trust layer for AI, so you can go all in

AI adoption is moving faster than most organizations can govern it, and GRC teams need visibility into what AI exists, what it can access, and whether it's operating within company policy. In this demo, you'll get a first look at Vanta's vision for AI Governance. See how Vanta helps organizations discover AI across their environment, understand the risk and context behind every AI system and agent, and continuously demonstrate trustworthy AI practices.

How Vanta streamlines SOC 2 compliance for startups

See how Vanta helps your startup turn security into sales. A big customer is ready to buy, then they ask for your SOC 2 report, a live security dashboard, and a completed security questionnaire before they'll sign. That's getting SOC-blocked. Instead of pulling engineers off product for weeks of all-nighters, you use Vanta.
