Shield Platform Encryption in Hyperforce

Shield Platform Encryption operates in parallel with volume-level encryption. By default, Hyperforce provides volume-level encryption for data at rest. Volume-level encryption protects all the data on a disk with one encryption key, which Salesforce owns and manages. With Shield Platform Encryption, you can encrypt your data in Hyperforce with unique keys that you control and manage. Also, if your org is on Hyperforce, you can use Database Encryption to encrypt the entire transactional database.

Required Editions

Available in both Salesforce Classic (not available in all orgs) and Lightning Experience.
Available in: Enterprise, Performance, and Unlimited Editions with the Salesforce Shield or Shield Platform Encryption licenses.
Available for free in Developer Edition.

Shield Platform Encryption features work in Hyperforce just like they do in implementations running on Salesforce’s first-party infrastructure. You can generate a unique key with Salesforce, or bring your own customer-supplied key, and rotate, export, and delete key material on demand. You can also encrypt files and attachments and data in CRM Analytics, Chatter, search indexes, and the event bus. And you can gather statistics about how much of your data is encrypted and, of that data, how much of it’s encrypted by active key material. This extra layer of security and control can help you meet your auditing, regulatory, contractual, and compliance requirements.
