Overview
When using the Salesforce Marketing Cloud (SFMC) API connector, Amperity generates a CSV file that is transferred to SFMC as part of the orchestration process. Customers often ask whether this file is stored or transferred as a plain CSV and whether the plugin applies any additional encryption.
Encryption & Security Model
The CSV file is a standard file format, but it is always encrypted at rest and in transit while it resides within Amperity.
Encryption is applied by Amperity’s platform-level security layer, not by the SFMC plugin itself.
The plugin does not perform additional hashing or file-level encryption.
Once the file is successfully delivered to Salesforce Marketing Cloud, SFMC becomes responsible for protecting the file in their own environment.
Amperity performs security reviews of third-party vendors, including SFMC, before enabling integrations.
Summary
All orchestration files are protected by Amperity’s built-in security controls until delivery. After transfer, data protection is governed by Salesforce Marketing Cloud’s security policies.
