How to Use the Vanta MCP in LlamaIndex

Q: How do I track policy acknowledgments using Vanta and LlamaIndex?

You use vantalistpolicies to get a list of all security policies, including the version number and the percentage of employees who have acknowledged them. Indexing this makes it easy to search for 'which policies are overdue for acknowledgement?'.

Q: Where can I find audit evidence status with Vanta and LlamaIndex?

The vantalistevidencerequests tool pulls outstanding requests. By indexing this, your agent grounds answers about 'who needs to submit screenshots' or if the team is ready for an upcoming review.

Yes, call vantalistpeople. This gives you status on training completion, device compliance, and access reviews. You can then search historical records to find patterns in overdue training across departments.

The vantalistrisks tool provides the risk register, detailing impact scores, likelihoods, and assigned controls. Your agent can index this data to answer questions like 'What is our highest-scored risk in Q2?'

Compliance Status Search

Don't just get a score; index the details. Call `vanta_compliance_status` to pull the overall compliance posture dashboard, including pass rates for SOC 2 and GDPR. LlamaIndex then indexes this result, allowing you to query past sessions or configurations about 'why the HIPAA pass rate dropped last month' for grounded answers.

Device Inventory Query

Need to know if a specific device meets standards? Run `vanta_list_computers` and index the resulting data—device name, OS version, and encryption status. You can then ask your agent complex questions like 'Which laptops owned by Engineering lack antivirus?'

Integration Health Reporting

Use `vanta_list_integrations` to list all connected services and their sync statuses, along with coverage metrics. Indexing this data lets you query historical integration performance, answering 'When was the last time our identity provider synced successfully?'
