For any B2B software company, maintaining robust data security and privacy practices is non-negotiable. But when you're in the business of handling personal employee information like resumes (CVs), compliance is even more crucial. That's why we went through an extensive process to find the right compliance solution for Flowcase.
Why compliance matters to us
At Flowcase, we have an ethical obligation to go above and beyond in protecting the sensitive career data entrusted to us by our customers and their employees. Failing to meet strict standards could mean exposing private details like employment history, skills, educational backgrounds and more.
That’s why, from day one, we've made security and compliance a core value ingrained into every aspect of our business and product. Being certified against top security frameworks like ISO 27001 and SOC 2 isn't just a nice-to-have; it's make or break for ensuring privacy and earning the confidence of our customers. However, verifying compliance with 100% confidence, both internally and externally, is easier said than done. That's why we decided to invest in a dedicated solution to streamline our efforts.
Our search for the perfect compliance tool
When we outgrew our manual processes using documents and spreadsheets, we knew we needed a dedicated compliance management solution. But with so many options out there, how to choose the right one? We had some must-have requirements:
- Support for multiple frameworks like ISO 27001, SOC 2, etc. to meet varied customer needs
- Seamless integration with our AWS infrastructure and other core business tool
- Built-in risk assessment and access review functionality
- An intuitive dashboard to track our compliance posture and outstanding tasks
After evaluating many vendors, Vanta stood out as the clear frontrunner that ticked all those boxes.
Why Vanta was the only choice
Beyond meeting all of our feature requirements, Vanta’s platform blew us away. Their modern, user-friendly interface means that we can see exactly how we are doing and whether there are any areas for improvement. This at-a-glance view was exactly what we were looking for in a tool. Additionally, their range of integrations with our existing tech stack was a big value add. Last but not least, their prompt customer support has been incredibly helpful when getting to grips with the system.
