Vanta Security Awareness Training
Vanta offers security awareness training developed by our in-house security and compliance experts to help ensure your employees learn about essential security topics in a way that nurtures a positive and strong culture of safety.
Vanta’s security awareness training is housed directly within the Vanta platform—which means your employees can view and complete the video without leaving the Vanta onboarding page.
Employees will see the seven-minute training video on their onboarding page and will need to watch the video in its entirety. Once watched and submitted, it automatically marks the task as complete.

Setting up Security Awareness Training
