When performing a security review on a vendor, you may need specific documentation to complete the review. With Vanta, a private link can be sent to the vendor, allowing the vendor to upload the documents themselves and expediting the vendor review process.

Sending a Private Link to the Vendor

  • Start a new review from the Security Reviews page or open a review currently in progress.

  • Select Request evidence

  • Click Send Email to send the request directly to the vendor.

  • Alternatively, you can copy the link and paste it into an email or message to send manually.

Treat this link as sensitive: Anyone with this link can send files to your security review. Make sure to only share it with designated vendor.

Vendor View of the Document Portal

  • When the vendor accesses the link, they will be able to upload or link to documents directly into the portal, giving you access to those documents in Vanta

  • They can also select I don't have this if this is a document the vendor does not have available

  • If the vendor would like to invite other team members into the portal to upload documents, they can select + Invite others from the top right-hand corner
