Vonage has launched Salesforce Shield for Vonage Contact Center (VCC) and Vonage for Service Cloud Voice (SCV). Salesforce Shield adds additional compliance with business requirements and security features for those using Vonage Contact Center with Salesforce.
Both solutions, VCC and SCV, which integrate all communications channels, now support Salesforce Shield encryption, provided they are plugged into the Salesforce platform. In addition, Vonage’s cloud contact center solution may help businesses improve performance and connectivity with customers and employees alike. For instance, a healthcare company can manage and protect all types of personal information of its patients while still allowing agents to run workflows and perform other functions using that data in order to meet the patient's needs.
“With the addition of Salesforce Shield, Vonage is ensuring that organizations worldwide can better serve their customers while meeting compliance or governance requirements – all from a single, secure platform,” said Sanjay Macwan, CIO & Chief Information Security Officer at Vonage.
This represents another step in a well-established partnership Vonage has with Salesforce, addressing the urgent need for increased security.
"Offering our customers the benefits of Salesforce Shield is a testament to our longstanding collaboration with Salesforce and commitment to enabling our customers’ success. We expect this innovation to drive significant growth over the coming years, particularly with businesses in regulated industries,” added Macwan.
What is Salesforce Shield?
Salesforce Shield provides businesses with tools that protect customer data and increase trust and governance for agents, all while creating a positive customer experience with easy access to information. It includes Shield Platform Encryption, Event Monitoring, and Field Audit Trail.
In addition, Salesforce Shield leverages AES 256-bit encryption to ensure the protection of the most sensitive data across all Salesforce apps. It also helps bring existing encryption keys and manage key lifecycles, secure and protect sensitive data from all Salesforce users and admins, and meet regulatory compliance requirements.
Vonage has recently partnered with ExamRoom.AI to provide reliable remote testing and proctoring experiences around the globe.
