- What software services is the service an extension to
- Salesforce services are all modular and pre-integrated with AI from einstein built-in. Functionality can be expanded as needed. Typically, customers extend by adding: Service Cloud for case management, Sales Cloud for CRM and 360degree information view, and Marketing Cloud for engagements and customer journeys. Further information here https://appexchange.salesforce.com/ and https://www.salesforce.com/uk/products/
- Cloud deployment model
- Public cloud
- Service constraints
- Key considerations (further detail in our Supplier Terms) As Salesforce is multi-tenant, there are 'governor limits' which prevent resources from being monopolised by any single organisation. NB though these limits exist it's rare for customers to be impacted, and even more unusual for our current Public Sector customers. In the unlikely event of a need to increase, limits can be extended with various add-ons separately listed. Hitting a limit is often a sign of an underlying design flaw. A user’s password may not be shared with any other individual.

- End-of-contract data extraction
- There are a number of options available for customers to extract their data from the service, either during the contract or when the contract ends. We encourage customers to export their data during their contract on a periodic basis to maintain a local copy of their salesforce database, rather than wait until the end of the contract These options include: The Weekly Export Service – export data from the service on a periodic basis via a zip file containing .csv files over a TLS link. Export data over the API via an integration or middleware solution. A comprehensive Salesforce exit strategy paper is available on request.
- End-of-contract process
-
After termination of all subscriptions associated with an environment, Customer Data submitted to the Covered Services is retained in inactive status within the Covered Services for 120 days, after which it is securely overwritten or deleted from production within 90 days, and from backups within 180 days.
Physical media on which Customer Data is stored during the contract term is not removed from the data centers that Salesforce uses to host Customer Data unless the media is at the end of its useful life or being deprovisioned, in which case the media is first sanitized before removal. This process is subject to applicable legal requirements.
Within 30 days post contract termination, customers may request return of their respective Customer Data submitted to the Covered Services. Salesforce shall provide such Customer Data via downloadable files in comma separated value (.csv) format and attachments in their native format.
For more information on Data Deletion period upon contract termination, please refer ""Deletion of Customer Data"" section of the Security, Privacy and Architecture Documentation for the respective services available on the Trust and Compliance site: https://trust.salesforce.com/en/trust-and-compliance-documentation/ - Documentation accessibility standard

The interface is a modern and intuitive design, with help functions throughout. The interface can be configured as required
In the platform, it is easy to modify applications to unique requirements. Use the metadata framework and point-and-click tools, custom user interfaces, modify data models, create and edit application business logic and processes. Configuration to modify objects, fields, validation rules, workflow, security settings, formulas, and more without code.
Some functionality is beyond the constraints of a metadata framework. For such cases, developers can create needed functionality in open-ended development environments, using toolkits for most of the common programming languages, or Apex. - Accessibility standards
- WCAG 2.2 AA
- Accessibility testing
-
Salesforce is committed to providing applications accessible to all. This includes users working with assistive technology, such as speech recognition software and screen readers. Salesforce follows international best practices in Section 508 of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines and strives to meet WCAG 2.2 Level AA.
A third party has assessed and documented the accessibility status of Salesforce core products in the VPAT documents published here: https://www.salesforce.com/company/legal/508_accessibility.jsp - API
- Yes
- What users can and can't do using the API
-
For developers changing the system, two APIs are applicable for managing customizations and for building tools that can manage the metadata model.
The Tooling API is specifically designed to help developers build IDE apps for salesforce, while the metadata API is for more general-purpose configuration migration. The metadata API allows for migrations, including retrieve, deploy, create, update, or delete customisations for your Salesforce instance and migrate changes from testing to production; the Tooling API gives developers a platform for debugging, code coverage, auto complete, and more. - API documentation

1. What Can Be Customized
Marketers can customize calculated insights (CLV formulas, engagement scores), segment definitions, activation mappings to external platforms, data model objects and fields, identity resolution rules for profile unification, and Einstein prediction models for their specific business outcomes.
2. How Users Can Customize
Most customization happens through point-and-click interfaces. The Calculated Insights builder lets marketers create metrics using visual formulas without code. Segment creation uses a drag-and-drop query builder or natural language AI prompts. Data model extensions work through standard Salesforce object manager—adding custom fields or creating new data model objects. Identity resolution rules configure through wizards that define matching criteria. Activation mappings use guided flows to connect segments with Marketing Cloud, advertising platforms, or other channels. Einstein models customize through selecting training data and business objectives.
3. Who Can Customize
Marketing operations teams typically handle data model and identity resolution customization, requiring ""Manage Data Cloud"" permission. Campaign managers build segments and calculated insights with ""View Data Cloud"" access. Marketing analysts configure Einstein predictions and complex activations. Salesforce admins manage underlying permissions, integration setup, and platform-level configurations. Most customizations don't require developers—designed specifically for business users with marketing domain expertise.
Scaling
- Independence of resources
- Salesforce ensures users are not impacted by demands placed on the service by others through its multi-tenant architecture. This architecture allows multiple organisations (tenants) to share the same infrastructure and resources while maintaining strict data isolation and performance reliability. Each organisation’s data and processes are logically separated, ensuring activities of one do not affect the others. Salesforce employs robust system monitoring and resource management, including dynamic resource allocation, load balancing, and proactive system updates to ensure consistent performance across the platform, regardless of demand fluctuations. Performance and availability information for the entire service are available at https://trust.salesforce.com.
Analytics
- Service usage metrics
- Yes
- Metrics types
- The service includes various metrics to monitor usage and adoption of the service, for example, last login, login duration etc. For Infrastructure detail metrics are available at https://trust.salesforce.com website provides performance and availability information for the entire service. For specific metric monitoring and for more in-depth detail customers can extend capability through the use of Event Monitoring. For example - which applications are being used, by whom, how are they being used, when, where from and are there performance issues? This data can be used to improve adoption, security and performance of the application.

-
By default, Salesforce encrypts customer data at rest as disk volumes are encrypted by using at least industry-standard AES-256 algorithm. Snapshots of encrypted volumes are automatically encrypted as well when replicated to long term storage.
In addition, Platform Encryption allows customers to add additional layers of encryption to their data and manage the lifecycle of their data encryption keys themselves.
More specifically, Platform Encryption allows customers to selectively encrypt nominated fields for encryption when stored in the database. This is often referred to as field encryption. Customers can also encrypt their entire database; this is known as tenant level encryption. - Data sanitisation process

Availability and resilience
- Guaranteed availability
- The Salesforce Services are designed with the concept of continuous improvement and Trust (e.g. Availability, Performance and Security) in the infrastructure. Salesforce uses commercially reasonable efforts to make its on-demand services available to its customers 24/7, except for (minimal) planned downtime, for which Salesforce gives customers prior notice, and force majeure events. This service leverages Public Cloud region, and uses multiple availability zones. This pattern allows services to withstand up to two different zonal faults and continue to be available. Live and historical statistics on Salesforce system performance are publicly published at: https://trust.salesforce.com/en/#systemStatus, and further detail can be shared upon request and NDA.
- Approach to resilience
- Salesforce Hyperforce based cloud services has its compute resources run in 3 Availability Zone (AZ). Services run as containerised applications in containers which is configured for HA (high availability) by distributing nodes across AZs. To take advantage of this, service pods themselves are deployed across AZs when scheduled on nodes. Because of this when one AZ goes offline there will always be available service pods in different AZs to handle the workload. Service pods are also stateless so losing an AZ and nodes in that AZ along with the service pods running in them will cause no loss of data and new service pods will be scheduled on the available zones to handle the load.
- Outage reporting
- Outage escalation policies are established and maintained as Salesforce's goal is to rapidly restore service. In the event of an extended outage, periodic updates are provided in near real time to customers via the trust.salesforce.com dashboard site and in addition, service notifications are provided to nominated contacts via various channels such as email. Update frequency for notifications is dependent on the customer support service plan.
Identity and authentication
- User authentication needed
- Yes
- User authentication
-
- Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
- Public key authentication (including by TLS client certificate)

- Other
- Other user authentication
-
Salesforce has a comprehensive set of authentication mechanisms that customers can choose from. These include multi-factor authentication, Single Sign-on, Custom Login flows, and Connected Apps. A connected app is a framework that enables an external application to integrate with Salesforce using APIs and standard protocols, such as SAML, OAuth, and OpenID Connect. Connected apps use these protocols to authenticate, authorise, and provide single sign-on (SSO) for external apps.
Salesforce requires each user to have a unique username that they enter at each login. Administrators can configure several settings to ensure that users' passwords are strong and secure. - Access restrictions in management interfaces and support channels
-
Management access for service support and delivery is done through multiple layers of controls including, but not limited to, multiple 2 factor authentication, just-in-time access, access related to an approved trouble ticket and segregation of duties. These controls are in scope for SSAE-18 auditing and evidenced through the SOC 2/ISAE3402 report.
Access to the management interface for the customer to configure their salesforce environment, is configured by the customer themselves. Robust application design and testing ensures that users without administrative access rights cannot access more sensitive areas of the application. - Access restriction testing frequency
- At least every 6 months

Salesforce's Information Security Management System (ISMS) and information security policies are based on the ISO 27002 framework of best practices and are ISO 27001 certified.
As required by this certification, the ISMS is endorsed by Senior Management. The Chief Trust Officer/CISO has responsibility for the information security policies and ISMS. The Salesforce Security Steering Committee approves/authorizes all changes to the policies, the Statement of Applicability (SoA), the information security manual, and any separate policy statements.
During the ISO 27001 audit process (as well as other audits such as SOX and SSAE 16 SOC 1), senior management for various departments are involved in verifying that policies and procedures are in place and adhered to. Policies are reviewed/approved at least annually.
Companywide security awareness training highlights the importance of the security policies to employees and reinforces the company’s number 1 value of Trust. - Software Security Code of Practice
- Yes
Operational security
- Configuration and change management standard
- Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
- Configuration and change management approach
- Changes to infrastructure components are made through code using industry standard Infrastructure as Code (IaC) software and assessed for their security impact before being deployed. Individuals who wish to deploy an IaC change into production are required to follow defined procedures and standards, and to complete mandatory change management training before participating in the change management process. A change must be approved and routed through the change owner before the change can be implemented. A ticketing system is used as part of the change management procedure which records the components and the changes made.
- Vulnerability management type
- Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
- Vulnerability management approach
-
Salesforce includes threat modelling into its software development lifecycle to help ensure the risks associated with potential threats are mitigated as early as possible. Multiple threat intelligence sources are used to help understand the current and evolving threat landscape.
Vulnerability scans are performed on all Salesforce information systems and hosted applications. Patches are deployed in timeframes based on CVSS scores and risk level.
All vulnerabilities discovered during penetration tests are entered into the salesforce central ticketing system and are assigned an internal vulnerability ranking according on the OWASP risk rating framework based on likelihood and impact. - Protective monitoring type
- Complies with a recognised standard, for example CSA CCM v4.0 or SSAE-18 / ISAE 3402
- Protective monitoring approach
- Salesforce Threat Intelligence and Detection team monitors the Salesforce services 24x7 for threats and unauthorized intrusions in collaboration with the Security Incident Response teams. Extensive logging and monitoring are conducted across all Salesforce Services and environments (at application, network and database layers). All suspicious activities are flagged and reported to Salesforce CSIRT for investigation, management, communication, and resolution of security events and incidents in line with the NIST Incident Response model.
- Incident management type
