Set up Swif integration with Vanta
Updated over a week ago

Swif's integration with Vanta allows you to streamline your security and compliance processes by combining Swif's device management capabilities with Vanta's comprehensive security monitoring and compliance tools. This integration enables your organization to achieve and maintain compliance with various security standards, such as SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, and more.

Swif offers several key benefits for managing devices and ensuring compliance:

  1. Unified Device Management: Comprehensive coverage for all devices, including macOS, Windows, and Linux.

  2. Automated Enrollment: Streamlined onboarding process for new devices.

  3. Policy and Software Patch Management: Efficient management of policies and software updates.

  4. Smart Group Deployment: Automated deployment of policies and software to designated groups of devices.

  5. Real-Time Syncing: Continuous synchronization with compliance auditing platforms.

  6. AI-Powered Features: Enhanced access discovery to mitigate shadow IT risks.

Here is the list of data we are sending to Vanta:

  1. Employees

  2. Devices

    1. User accounts: When was the last login timestamp for each account

    2. Disk encrypted or not

    3. Managed by MDM or not

  3. OS update:

    1. If OS updates are automatically installed

  4. Password policy:

    1. The minimum length of password requirement

  5. Screensaver policy:

    1. If Screen Saver requires a password to log back in

    2. If Screen saver turns on after some duration

  6. Installed applications: These can be used to detect antivirus installation and password manager installation on a device.

  7. Installed browser extensions (Coming soon in 2024)

  8. When utilizing Swif for computer wiping, it's possible to download Media Disposal evidence. This evidence can then be conveniently uploaded to Drata for record-keeping and auditing purposes. It provides a clear and auditable trail of device disposal, which is crucial for data privacy and security.

    * If you receive password manager alerts on Vanta, it was decided based on the installed application and browser extension data. Password managers are a good security practice to ensure that passwords aren’t stored on their laptops in plaintext, that each website has a different password, etc. Here is the list of apps and extensions Vanta considers a password manager. We don't report installed browser extensions at the moment.
