How Relay Achieved SOC 2 Type II Compliance with Vanta and Advantage Partners

Earlier this month, Relay completed our SOC 2 Type II audit and are thrilled that we are now deemed SOC 2 Type II compliant. This accomplishment would not have been possible without the invaluable support and expertise of our partners, Vanta and Advantage Partners.

The sheer amount of tests and documentation involved with SOC 2 Type II compliance can be daunting for any team, so that's why it's crucial to find the right trust management platform and the right auditing team that can provide guidance along the way. So how did we choose Vanta and Advantage Partners over the numerous competitors in the market? It all came down to ease, reliability and communication.

When we were weighing our options of all the trust management platforms, above all we focused on ease of use. SOC 2 compliance is challenging enough, and the last thing we needed was a platform that made it more difficult. But Vanta's expertise and tools played a pivotal role in our SOC 2 Type II compliance journey.

  1. Streamlined Assessments: Vanta's platform enabled us to streamline the assessment process by automating data collection and analysis. This saved us countless hours that would have otherwise been spent manually gathering evidence and conducting assessments.
  2. Real-time Monitoring: Vanta's continuous monitoring capabilities provided us with real-time visibility into our security posture. This allowed us to identify and address potential vulnerabilities promptly, ensuring that we maintain a robust security framework.
  3. Actionable Insights: The insights provided by Vanta's platform helped us identify areas for improvement and implement necessary security controls. Their platform acted as a guiding force throughout the compliance journey, ensuring that we met all the SOC 2 Type II requirements.

We never once struggled with the platform before, during or after our audit and we could not be happier with the support and communication we received from the Vanta side.

When it came down to picking the right audit team, Advantage Partners was the first and only option that we needed. Advantage Partners is a renowned cybersecurity consulting firm known for their expertise in regulatory compliance and risk management. Their guidance and support were instrumental in helping us navigate the complexities of SOC 2 Type II compliance.

  1. Expert Guidance: Advantage Partners provided us with expert guidance at every step of the SOC 2 Type II compliance process. Their in-depth knowledge of industry best practices and regulatory requirements helped us develop a comprehensive compliance strategy. Whenever we had a question, the Advantage Partners team was there with a very prompt response.
  2. Gap Analysis and Remediation: Advantage Partners conducted a thorough gap analysis, identifying areas where we needed to strengthen our controls. They helped us develop a remediation plan, ensuring that we addressed any vulnerabilities or deficiencies.
  3. Policy and Procedure Development: Advantage Partners assisted us in developing robust policies and procedures that aligned with SOC 2 Type II requirements. Their expertise in policy development ensured that we had a strong foundation for maintaining ongoing compliance.

Achieving SOC 2 Type II compliance was a collaborative effort, and we are immensely grateful for the support of our partners, Vanta and Advantage Partners. Their automated security and compliance solutions, along with their expert guidance, played a crucial role in our successful compliance journey. With their assistance, we were able to streamline assessments, gain real-time visibility into our security posture, and implement necessary controls. We are proud to have achieved SOC 2 Type II compliance and will continue to work closely with our partners to ensure the ongoing security and privacy of our clients' data.
