The round was led by Sequoia Capital, with participation from existing investor Y Combinator. In conjunction with the funding, Sequoia General Partner Andrew Reed will join Vanta’s board of directors.

The company will use the new funding to meet customer demand, launch new products, and open a second office in New York.
