What Apptega Does

Apptega is a cybersecurity compliance and GRC platform founded in 2017 by Armistead Whitney in Atlanta, Georgia. The company has raised $53.4M in total funding, including a $37M growth investment from Mainsail Partners in 2022. Apptega serves both in-house security teams and Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs), with 1,000+ MSSPs, MSPs, and businesses supporting more than 15,000 global compliance programs.

The platform supports 30+ pre-built frameworks including SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, PCI DSS v4.0, GDPR, FedRAMP, CCPA, NIST CSF, NIST 800-53, NIST 800-171, CMMC v2.0, CIS, SOX, and COBIT 2019. Its Harmony AI engine provides framework crosswalking, automatically mapping shared controls across standards to eliminate duplicate work. Teams report reducing compliance management effort by up to 75% through this cross-mapping.

Key modules include Assessment Manager (questionnaire-based gap analysis with AI remediation advice), Risk Manager (scoring and mitigation tracking), Audit Manager (audit preparation and evidence organization), Vendor Risk Manager (third-party security posture evaluation, launched October 2025), and Policy Manager. Unlike compliance automation tools like Vanta and Drata, Apptega is purpose-built for service providers who deliver compliance-as-a-service to multiple clients at scale.

best for
  • ▸MSSPs and MSPs who need to manage compliance programs across multiple clients with multi-framework crosswalking. The platform's multi-tenant architecture and Partner Command Center make it the go-to choice for security service providers.
not ideal for
  • ▸Startups seeking self-serve, developer-focused compliance automation (Vanta or Drata are better options). Companies needing 100+ native integrations or deep continuous infrastructure monitoring.

What We Could Verify

Apptega publishes plan contents and a 14-day trial, but the reviewed pricing page does not verify a dollar starting price. The $9,950 figure previously labeled vendor-confirmed was a third-party estimate and has been removed.

This is desk research from public sources, not a product trial or a private sales quote. Vendor statements are attributed claims. The older feature and third-party rating tables retain their own recorded dates; this pricing check does not reverify the full profile.
