Vanta integrates with Capsule to monitor and manage access to your tools. By syncing user access data, Vanta helps ensure that only active employees retain access and that access is promptly removed when personnel leave. This supports automated compliance needs, streamlines access reviews, and powers automated access requests.
Estimated setup time: Less than 10 minutes
How It Works
Vanta connects to Capsule to sync user data on a regular basis. This data supports three key workflows:
Automated compliance tests – Vanta automatically checks that accounts are linked to employees and deprovisioned when personnel leave
Access Reviews – Synced users appear in Vanta’s Access Reviews, where approvers can validate appropriate access, confirm least-privilege access, and provide audit evidence
Access Requests – Entitlements from Capsule are pulled into Vanta. Requesters can ask for specific access levels, approvers can review with context, and admins can track provisioning
Please note: Vanta connects to Capsule through Merge.dev, a secure third-party integration platform.
