Executive Summary

AI-generated analysis for Grafana

Grafana (operated by Raintank Inc., LEI: 254900C887Y5T9RPKQ79) is a well-established data analytics and observability platform with an 11-year domain history and strong web presence, ranking #1,000 on Cloudflare Radar.

Area Requiring Attention

The vendor presents a low overall risk posture, supported by clean threat intelligence signals across 94 security engines, no adverse media, and no sanctions or enforcement findings. Seven compliance certifications — including SOC 2, ISO 27001, and PCI DSS v4.0.1 — are prominently claimed on the vendor's trust page (trust.grafana.com), but none could be independently verified through a public registry; retail deployers should request current audit reports before relying on these claims for PCI-DSS TPSP documentation. Minor security header gaps and low-signal threat intelligence pulses round out a manageable risk profile consistent with the Tier 4 (Low Risk) determination.

Independence Statement

All evidence supporting this assessment was independently sourced from external data providers and public registries without vendor participation or notification.

Steps to address findings for Grafana

  1. 1

    Request Grafana's SOC 2 Type II report and PCI DSS v4.0.1 Attestation of Compliance (AoC) — contact their security team via trust.grafana.com or security@grafana.com. Many enterprise vendors provide these under NDA within 5–10 business days. Retain copies with your TPSP documentation for QSA review.

  2. 2

    Review the full subprocessor list manually at trust.grafana.com/subprocessors and identify which subprocessors will process your organization's data. For each relevant subprocessor, confirm they are not subject to sanctions and that Grafana has data processing agreements (DPAs) in place with them.

  3. 3

    Execute a formal Data Processing Agreement (DPA) with Grafana covering your use case. Grafana publishes privacy documentation at grafana.com/privacy — confirm the DPA explicitly designates Grafana as a 'service provider' under CCPA/CPRA and prohibits sale of your data, and includes standard contractual clauses (SCCs) for any EU consumer data.

  4. 4

    Conduct a manual sanctions screening of Grafana (entity: Raintank Inc., LEI: 254900C887Y5T9RPKQ79) against OFAC SDN, EU Consolidated, and UN sanctions lists using your organization's compliance tooling, as automated screening was unavailable in this assessment.

  5. 5

    Confirm the FedRAMP authorization status independently by searching the FedRAMP Marketplace at marketplace.fedramp.gov for 'Grafana' — this is the authoritative public registry. If your deployment is in a U.S. federal or regulated environment, the scope and impact level of any FedRAMP authorization is critical to document.

  6. 6

    Run an independent security header scan against your specific Grafana Cloud tenant URL (e.g., using securityheaders.com) to determine whether the header gaps identified on the marketing domain also apply to your operational instance, and request remediation from Grafana if gaps are confirmed.

Data Coverage Notes

Some data sources may have had limited availability during this assessment. This does not reflect negatively on the vendor.

  • Sanctions and watchlist screening was unavailable during this assessment. Manual verification against OFAC, EU, and UN sanctions lists is recommended before onboarding if the organization's risk policy requires sanctions screening for all third parties.
  • SSL/TLS deep analysis was unavailable; cipher suite configuration and certificate chain details for grafana.com could not be assessed at this time.
  • Certificate Transparency log analysis was unavailable; a full inventory of subdomains and historical certificate issuance could not be completed.
  • Web archive history was unavailable, limiting the ability to corroborate historical domain continuity through an independent third-party archive source.
  • The subprocessor discovery tool returned two apparent parsing artifacts ('Proudly Recertified' and 'You can also subscribe to our RSS feed') rather than actual named subprocessors. Grafana's true subprocessor list at trust.grafana.com/subprocessors should be reviewed manually to identify all third-party data processors relevant to your deployment.
  • External cyber risk scoring was not available for this assessment, which would otherwise provide an independent continuous monitoring signal for infrastructure and application security posture.

The questionnaire is mapped to SIG, SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS and 9 other frameworks — answered without sending Grafana a single email or waiting for a vendor response.
Is Grafana safe to use as a vendor?+
Grafana is a observability vendor that handles application logs, traces, and metrics. Safety depends on their current security posture, certification status, and how they handle your specific data. ThirdProof automates this evaluation across 27 intelligence sources — sanctions databases (OFAC, EU, UN), business registration verification, adverse media scanning, and cyber risk assessment — producing a deterministic risk tier with confidence score plus an auto-filled security questionnaire. Run a free investigation to see Grafana's full risk profile.
Does Grafana have SOC 2 certification?+
Yes — Grafana holds SOC 2 + 4 other certs. Rated Moderate Risk — 5 cert(s) unverified. See all 6 findings →
Has Grafana had any data breaches?+
Data breach history is an important signal for any vendor, particularly observability platforms like Grafana that handle application logs, traces, and metrics. ThirdProof's adverse media analysis searches multiple news APIs and public records for data breaches, security incidents, lawsuits, regulatory enforcement actions, and financial distress signals. Each finding is linked to its original source with severity classification.
Is Grafana on any sanctions lists?+
Sanctions screening is standard due diligence for observability vendors. ThirdProof screens Grafana against OFAC SDN, consolidated international sanctions lists, and PEP databases. The screening uses entity name verification to reduce false positives. If Grafana or any associated officers appear on a sanctions list, this triggers automatic escalation to the highest risk tier.
How do I assess Grafana for vendor risk?+
Assessing Grafana as a observability vendor involves verifying SOC 2 Type II and FedRAMP compliance, reviewing their subprocessor chain, and checking sanctions exposure. ThirdProof automates this across 27 intelligence sources in an average of 7 minutes — no questionnaires or vendor participation required. Your first 5 investigations are free.
How long does a ThirdProof assessment take?+
A ThirdProof assessment completes in an average of 7 minutes. 27 intelligence sources are queried in parallel — sanctions databases, business registries, threat intelligence feeds, certificate transparency logs, and more. The result is a deterministic risk tier with confidence score and audit-ready PDF report.
Is ThirdProof free?+
ThirdProof offers 5 free vendor assessments with no credit card required. Each assessment includes the full report — risk tier, confidence score, individual findings, executive summary, and PDF export. Paid plans start at $399/month for teams that need ongoing vendor monitoring.
Can I use a ThirdProof report as SOC 2 audit evidence?+
Yes. ThirdProof reports are designed to satisfy SOC 2 CC9.2 (vendor risk management) requirements. Each report includes SHA-256 integrity verification, methodology disclosure, source attribution for every finding, and AI content labeling. Auditors can independently verify the report's authenticity and trace each finding to its original source.
How is ThirdProof different from a security questionnaire?+
Security questionnaires require vendor participation, take weeks, and produce self-reported answers. ThirdProof queries 27 independent intelligence sources — no vendor involvement needed. Risk tiers are assigned by a deterministic rules engine (not AI opinion), and every finding links to its original source. You get an audit-ready report in an average of 7 minutes instead of waiting weeks for a questionnaire response.

Grafana is in your vendor stack. Can you prove you assessed them?

SOC 2 CC9.2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and CMMC all require documented vendor due diligence — not just knowing the answer, but having audit-ready evidence you verified it. Most compliance teams can't produce that documentation on demand.

ThirdProof investigates Grafana across 27 intelligence sources in an average of 7 minutes — sanctions screening, cyber posture, SOC 2 verification, FedRAMP status, and more. Every investigation produces two deliverables: an audit-ready risk report and an auto-filled security questionnaire your prospects and auditors expect to see.
