Vanta, a technology company specialising in compliance automation, has secured $150m in a Series C funding, boosting the company’s valuation to $2.45bn.  

This investment round was led by Sequoia Capital, with participation from new and existing investors, including Goldman Sachs Growth Equity and JP Morgan.

The total capital raised by Vanta since 2021 has now reached $353m.  

The company’s platform streamlines the process for businesses to achieve certifications such as SOC 2, HIPAA, and ISO 27001, which are crucial for data management, health information protection, and information security management systems.  

Vanta CEO Christina Cacioppo said: “From pioneering automated compliance to becoming the market leader in trust management, Vanta has enabled thousands of customers to strengthen their security practices, and ultimately, grow their businesses.
