Vanta Named to the 2025 Forbes Cloud 100 for Third Consecutive Year

Leading AI-powered trust management platform ranks #63 on the annual ranking

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Vanta, the leading AI-powered trust management platform, announced it has earned the #63 spot in the Forbes 2025 Cloud 100 list, the definitive ranking of the top 100 private cloud companies in the world, published by Forbes in partnership with Bessemer Venture Partners.

According to Forbes: “For enterprises, data security and compliance can be a gnarly process, often prone to errors. Vanta wants to help companies stay honest about how they handle their customers’ data. Its solution: continuous monitoring tools and automated security reports that provide a clear picture of where vulnerabilities lie. Over 12,000 customers including Atlassian, Omni Hotels, Duolingo and Snowflake now use its software to automate their security compliance processes.”

Vanta began in 2018 by helping startups automate SOC 2 compliance — making it faster and easier for them to earn trust and unlock growth. Since then, Vanta has expanded into a full trust management platform that supports continuous, zero-touch verification across compliance and security.

Today, Vanta offers built-in tools for vendor risk management, access reviews, risk management, and real-time trust reporting through Trust Centers. The Vanta AI Agent connects across the platform to guide teams through key workflows, surface inconsistencies, answer policy-related questions, and automate policy onboarding and evidence verification — helping customers reduce manual work and operate with greater speed and confidence.

Vanta’s AI-powered trust management platform is trusted by over 12,000 global organizations of all sizes — from ambitious start-ups to Fortune 50 enterprises — to save time, build trust faster and continuously strengthen their security posture. Vanta’s AI and product innovation has accelerated this year, as noted by Forbes:

“Vanta announced its acquisition of Riskey—which offers real-time risk monitoring solutions—and in June, the company debuted its Vanta AI Agent to support governance, risk and compliance teams. In August, the company announced a partnership with XBOW which gives teams access to autonomous AI-powered pen testing via Vanta's platform.”

In July, Vanta announced its $150 million Series D funding round at $4.15 billion valuation. The round was led by new investor Wellington Management, and included existing investors, Growth Equity at Goldman Sachs Alternatives, Sequoia, J.P. Morgan, Craft Ventures, Y Combinator, Atlassian Ventures and CrowdStrike Ventures.

Over the past year, Vanta has significantly expanded its product offerings, market penetration and global presence:

  • Launched 350 new features, including the Vanta AI Agent and AI Assessments
  • Acquired Riskey to power continuous, AI-driven vendor security reviews
  • Introduced Vanta for Marketplaces to help ecosystem leaders like Atlassian and Snowflake manage trust across partners
  • Rolled out Policy Builder to help startups create and maintain audit-ready policies in a fraction of the time
  • Expanded support for government compliance frameworks like FedRAMP, CMMC, and NIST 800-53
  • Opened a London office, launched an Australian data center, and grew to over 1,000 Vanta'ns worldwide

In addition to Forbes Cloud 100, Vanta has been recognized across a range of rankings and awards in the past year including a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Governance, Risk, and Compliance Software 2025 Vendor Assessment, Fortune Cyber 60, Inc.
