The Problem

B2B software, AI, fintech, cloud, and infrastructure companies are losing sales velocity because enterprise buyers require detailed security, privacy, compliance, and regulatory diligence before purchase. The work is cross-functional, repetitive, deadline-driven, and usually falls between GRC, security engineering, legal, sales engineering, and customer success. Many teams are hiring full-time roles just to answer questionnaires, maintain evidence, join buyer calls, and keep trust collateral accurate.

Potential Solution

Offer a productized managed service that becomes the company’s external-facing customer security desk. The service maintains a response library, maps controls to frameworks, prepares buyer-specific evidence packs, updates trust center content, joins security review calls, and routes edge cases to internal SMEs. Over time, the operator can add lightweight software for intake, response reuse, source-of-truth evidence syncing, SLA tracking, and buyer-question analytics, but the first sale is a delivered service.

Why Now?

Enterprise AI adoption, regulated-industry expansion, privacy scrutiny, data residency needs, and longer vendor risk reviews are making customer trust a revenue bottleneck. The evidence shows many companies hiring for this exact capability across security, GRC, sales engineering, customer success, legal, and product roles.

Be the function that unblocks enterprise deals: Build the customer-trust surface — security questionnaires, trust portal, DPAs, BAAs, customer-facing docs — so customers understand how we handle their data before they have to ask. Partner with engineering: Bake compliance into the product: control inheritance from Azure, policy-as-code, automated access reviews, audit-ready logging, and evidence collection that runs without a human in the loop.

Staff Data Engineer

vantaJul 9, 2026

We started in 2018, in the wake of several high-profile data breaches. Online security was only becoming more important, but we knew firsthand how hard it could be for fast-growing companies to invest the time and manpower it takes to build a solid security foundation. Vanta was inspired by a vision to restore trust in internet businesses by enabling companies to improve and prove their security. From our early days automating security monitoring for compliance standards like SOC 2, HIPAA and ISO 27001 to creating the world's leading Trust Management Platform, our vision remains unchanged.
