What a ThirdProof assessment covers↓

Sanctions Screening

Is Salesforce on any OFAC, EU, or UN sanctions list? Are any officers or affiliates flagged?

Cyber Risk Assessment

What is Salesforce's security posture? Threat intelligence scanning, known vulnerabilities, and security header analysis.

Business Registration

Is Salesforce a legitimately registered business entity? Corporate status, jurisdiction, and officer verification.

Adverse Media Analysis

Has Salesforce appeared in negative news coverage? Data breaches, lawsuits, regulatory actions, and complaints.

Domain & Infrastructure

Is Salesforce's website secure? TLS configuration, DNS hygiene, security headers, and domain age analysis.

Company Intelligence

What are Salesforce's firmographics? Employee count, industry classification, technology stack, and corporate structure.

Trust & Compliance Verification

Does Salesforce claim SOC 2, ISO 27001, HITRUST, or FedRAMP? ThirdProof scans trust pages for certification claims and cross-references the FedRAMP public registry for independent verification.

Supply Chain & Subprocessor Discovery

Who does Salesforce depend on? ThirdProof discovers subprocessors from vendor-published pages and runs sanctions screening and safe browsing checks against each one.

Salesforce Compliance and Certification Status

Salesforce claims SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, ISO 27017, ISO 27018, FedRAMP (Government Cloud), HIPAA (Health Cloud), and PCI DSS compliance. Salesforce Government Cloud holds FedRAMP Moderate authorization on marketplace.fedramp.gov. Given Salesforce's scale and the number of product families, organizations should verify that their specific clouds and connected apps fall within each relevant certification's scope.

Salesforce Security Posture and Recent Incidents

ThirdProof investigated Salesforce across 27 intelligence sources and assigned a High Risk (Tier 2) rating with 82% confidence. Historical media search identified critical adverse media related to the 2025 Gainsight OAuth and Drift-Salesforce token compromise incidents. Current threat intelligence is clean, SSL/TLS grade is A+, and sanctions screening is clear. The Tier 2 rating is driven by the scale and recency of supply-chain incidents affecting Salesforce customer data via connected apps — review the full report to understand whether your specific connected apps were affected.

ThirdProof's assessment flagged critical adverse media in historical archives, including the September–November 2025 Gainsight OAuth token compromise and Drift-Salesforce token hijack incidents. These supply-chain incidents affected Salesforce customer orgs via connected applications. Request Salesforce's post-incident Root Cause Analysis documentation and confirm which connected apps in your org were affected.
Does Salesforce support HIPAA?+
Salesforce Health Cloud and specific Salesforce offerings support HIPAA compliance with a Business Associate Agreement (BAA). Standard Salesforce products do not include HIPAA coverage by default. Covered entities should execute a BAA with Salesforce for the specific products in use and confirm the BAA scope covers all PHI workflows before production use.
Can I get an auto-filled security questionnaire for Salesforce?+
Yes. Every ThirdProof investigation of Salesforce produces two deliverables: an audit-ready risk report and a 133-question security questionnaire pre-filled with evidence from 27 independent sources. The questionnaire is mapped to SIG, SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS and 9 other frameworks — answered without sending Salesforce a single email or waiting for a vendor response.
Is Salesforce safe to use as a vendor?+
Salesforce is a CRM vendor that handles customer PII and communication records. 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 Salesforce's full risk profile.
Does Salesforce have SOC 2 certification?+
No SOC 2 found. Salesforce rated Moderate Risk — breach history in media. See all 6 findings →
Has Salesforce had any data breaches?+
Data breach history is an important signal for any vendor, particularly CRM platforms like Salesforce that handle customer PII and communication records. 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 Salesforce on any sanctions lists?+
Sanctions screening is standard due diligence for CRM vendors. ThirdProof screens Salesforce against OFAC SDN, consolidated international sanctions lists, and PEP databases. The screening uses entity name verification to reduce false positives. If Salesforce or any associated officers appear on a sanctions list, this triggers automatic escalation to the highest risk tier.
How do I assess Salesforce for vendor risk?+
Assessing Salesforce as a CRM vendor involves verifying SOC 2 Type II and GDPR 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.

Salesforce 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 Salesforce 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.
