A trust page is only part of the picture.
Vanta is a compliance platform. Its Automated Compliance product brings together evidence collection, controls monitoring, policy work and audit collaboration. Read Vanta’s Automated Compliance overview.
Vanta also offers a Trust Center. It can share documents with customers, control access to them and display information connected to the compliance programme. Read Vanta’s Trust Center overview.
cybee takes responsibility for a narrower technical job: protection and configuration on supported Macs, plus a dated record of the controls observed. Compare the work your team needs to complete.

| The job | cybee | Vanta |
|---|---|---|
| Device protection | Behaviour, signatures and content inspection on supported Macs. | The Device Monitor observes configuration; it is not endpoint malware protection. |
| Device hardening | Paid application and maintenance of the selected CIS profile. | The Device Monitor is read-only and does not change settings. |
| Programme management | No policy library, vendor-review or auditor workflow. | Policies, connected evidence, controls and audit collaboration. |
| Sharing evidence | A dated Trust Passport covering the assessed Macs, with a seal checked against cybee’s copy. | A Trust Center for sharing documents and connected programme information. |
| Your working surface | The assistant your team uses. | A platform for running the compliance programme. |
| The boundary | Technical controls on assessed devices; not certification or an audit opinion. | Programme evidence and workflows; device protection still needs an appropriate security tool. |

Checking a device is different from protecting it.
Vanta describes its Device Monitor as read-only software that uses osquery to inspect settings and installed applications. It does not modify those settings. That is useful evidence collection, but it is a different job from responding to malicious activity or applying a hardening configuration. Read how Vanta describes the Device Monitor.
cybee’s protection, hardening and record sit together. Protection watches activity. The free configuration score shows findings; the paid hardening workflow applies and maintains the chosen profile. The Trust Passport then records technical control observations and their dates.
A recipient can check the integrity of a cybee record against cybee’s sealed copy. That says the page has not changed. It does not say that every company process has been examined, or that the recipient must accept the record.
What the device record covers.
Encryption, endpoint protection, application patch status, screen lock, and installed browser extensions and AI tools.
Google Workspace accounts and multi-factor authentication (MFA) have their own record. Backups, training completion, incident plans, policies, code, suppliers and people need separate evidence.
Read the coverage details
On a typical questionnaire the passport answers, with dates, the questions about your Macs: disk encryption on every listed Mac; endpoint protection that watches behaviour, and since when; the patch status of your applications; screen lock and password on wake; the browser extensions and AI tools installed. This device record does not cover accounts and MFA. Connected Google Workspace has its own account record, within the connected organisation. Backups, training completion and the incident plan also need separate evidence. Policies, code, suppliers and people need their own evidence.
When the founder is also the person answering.
For a small agency or early startup, the immediate request may concern the Macs used to deliver a client’s work. Start with that scope. Identify the machines, the protections and the technical evidence needed, then account for any missing devices or observations.
cybee is designed around that work without a separate security dashboard. Questions and approved actions run through the assistant. Device protection, posture scoring and Google Workspace visibility are free. The paid plan adds hardening, sealed device and Workspace account records, offboarding evidence and security training, priced per protected Mac.
That narrower scope can be appropriate when the request is narrow. It does not mean a small company never needs a compliance programme. If the client asks for policy governance, supplier reviews or an independent audit, device evidence alone will not satisfy that requirement.
Read the request before buying the programme.
Ask which deliverable is actually required: device evidence, a set of business controls, a certification, or a combination. Then assign each part to the right owner.
When a compliance programme already exists.
If Vanta already coordinates the company’s compliance work, keep the useful programme structure. cybee’s technical record may support the device questions within that work. It does not replace the policies, the auditor relationship or the people who own organisational controls.
There is no confirmed native cybee–Vanta integration. Agree the evidence format, dates and device coverage with the customer or auditor before adding a record to the review.
Budget for the job each product performs. cybee lists 9 per device per month or 90 per year in CHF, EUR or USD, excluding tax. Vanta prices its packages on request. Check Vanta’s current plans.
Agree who maintains device security and who brings that evidence into the compliance review.
Common questions.
Is cybee an alternative to a full compliance programme?
No. cybee does not provide policy management, vendor reviews or an auditor workflow. It focuses on device protection, hardening and technical evidence.
Does Vanta also have a shareable trust page?
Yes. Vanta’s Trust Center shares documents and information from the compliance programme. The relevant distinction is the scope and source of the evidence.
Can we use a cybee record in our existing review?
It may support the device questions, subject to the recipient’s requirements. No native integration or guaranteed acceptance is claimed. Check format, dates and scope with the person reviewing the evidence.
