Frequently Asked Questions

Is Panoptic Scans an official Vanta vulnerability scanner integration?

Yes. Panoptic Scans is listed in the Vanta Marketplace. Connect your account, run scans, and automatically upload auditor-ready vulnerability evidence for SOC 2 and ISO 27001.

Can I replace Tenable, Qualys, Rapid7, or Intruder evidence in Vanta with Panoptic?

If your Vanta controls accept vulnerability scan evidence from an approved scanner integration, Panoptic Scans can supply timestamped reports with asset scope and severity ratings. Confirm control mapping with your auditor; many teams use Panoptic Scans as a lower-cost multi-engine option.

Does Panoptic Scans integrate with Vanta?

Yes. Panoptic Scans is built for teams using Vanta who need vulnerability scanning evidence. Run internal and external network scans, unauthenticated and authenticated application scans, export reports, and automatically upload evidence to Vanta.

How fast can I run my first scan?

Most teams can add assets and start a scan in minutes. You'll get timestamped, auditor-friendly output without standing up servers, agents, or scanners.

What assets can I scan for Vanta evidence?

Internet-facing domains, IPs, and APIs on all plans. Pro plan customers can also scan internal network infrastructure. All reports include asset scope so auditors can clearly see what was scanned.

How often should we run scans for SOC 2?

Many SOC 2 programs run quarterly external vulnerability scans, and some teams choose monthly for stronger monitoring. Panoptic Scans supports both on-demand and scheduled scans with an evidence trail.

What does the evidence include for auditors?

Each report includes scan date and time, asset scope, tool used (OpenVAS, ZAP, Nuclei, Nmap), severity ratings, a findings summary, and remediation guidance aligned to what auditors request in Vanta.
