Documents related to product information, HR, sales, and marketing teams are live on the Documents page. The Documents Page provides Vanta customers with a list of documents you will need to provide as a part of the audit for your chosen certificate, i.e., SOC2, ISO 27001, or HIPAA. Each request is evidence you'll need to complete your audit.

Accessing the Documents Page

  • From the left-hand navigation panel, select Documents.

  • Human resources, information technology, policy, engineering, and risks are preestablished sections of documents needed to obtain specific compliance certifications.

  • Documents will be categorized by sections and also tagged with the compliance name the document will be used for.

  • Each item will showcase the name of the document needed, the owner responsible for the document, and its status.

Document Status

  • If the status is Need Document, you must upload the document into Vanta.

  • If the document status is Ok, the document has been uploaded and is up-to-date.

  • If the document status is Needs Update, a new version of the document must be uploaded

  • If the document status is marked as Not Relevant, this document is not relevant to your specific security instance.

Searching & Filtering Documents

You can search for documents that have been uploaded using the search bar in the top left-hand corner. Documents can also be filtered by:

  • Status: The current status of an uploaded document.

  • Category: The section a document falls under.

  • Frequency: How often is the document expected or needed to be renewed?

  • Standard: The compliance framework the document serves, i.e., SOC2, HIPAA.

  • Priority: Is the document due soon or overdue?

  • Owner: Who is responsible for this document?
