Higher scores indicate stronger, independently supported AI assurance, governance, AI systems, models, data, supply chain and third-party assurance evidence. The score and the decision are related but different: a well-scored vendor can still carry conditions.

Before you sign

No formal subprocessor register disclosedCondition

Why it matters: The vendor names AI-related providers or partially addresses its supply chain, but the public sources scanned do not include a formal, dated subprocessor register.

What to ask for: Request a dated subprocessor register with change-notification terms for the DPA/order form.

A no-training commitment was found: confirm its scope in writingCondition

Why it matters: The sources include a no-training statement ("Under the Salesforce Trust Layer's zero data retention policy, prompts and generated responses are not used to train the underlying third-party large language models and remain the customer's property. The commitment is platform-level and specific to the third-party LLMs; it does not address training of Salesforce's own models.") but do not settle the question for every model, plan and data type in scope.

What to ask for: Confirm in writing that the no-training commitment covers every model, plan and data type you will use, including any opt-in sharing or feedback.

✓IRAP PROTECTED assessment explicitly names AgentforceStrong

Salesforce's compliance site lists an IRAP Assessment Report for Einstein Platform & Agentforce AU at PROTECTED (2025-06-27) and a later IRAP Report for Salesforce Services & Data Cloud on Hyperforce AU (2025-09-18) that also lists Agentforce & Einstein Platform, plus an ACSC Essential 8 report for Hyperforce AU services covering Agentforce. IRAP assessments are described as performed by independent ACSC-endorsed assessors. The reports themselves are password-protected and were not in the stash.

For Australian Government and regulated buyers an IRAP assessment at PROTECTED that names the target product is the strongest available signal of ISM alignment; it is rare for an AI agent product to be in scope by name. Because the reports are gated, the result still rests on the vendor's listing until a buyer obtains the report.

Question for vendor: Please provide the IRAP Assessment Report for Einstein Platform & Agentforce AU and confirm the in-scope components, residual risks and the assessment period.

✓Trust Layer commits to zero retention and no training by third-party LLMsStrong

The Salesforce Trust Layer states that prompts and generated responses are never stored or used to train the underlying third-party large language models, that PII and proprietary data are masked before prompts leave for the LLM, and that toxicity detection filters harmful output. The statements are made for the Trust Layer across Salesforce AI rather than for Agentforce by name.

This answers the two most common buyer questions about generative AI (training on customer data, retention of prompts) favourably at the platform level. The buyer should still obtain written confirmation that Agentforce, including the Atlas Reasoning Engine, routes every LLM call through the Trust Layer.

Question for vendor: Confirm in writing that all Agentforce LLM calls, including Atlas Reasoning Engine planning steps, pass through the Einstein Trust Layer with zero data retention and masking enabled.

!Salesforce-side retention and usage-data processing for Agentforce not statedGap

The zero-retention commitment is limited to the underlying third-party LLMs. Nothing in the stash states how long Agentforce conversation logs, prompts, reasoning traces or outputs are retained on the Salesforce side, and the controller Privacy Statement discloses that Personal Data including Usage Data from use of Salesforce services is processed to develop, optimise and improve its services. That statement excludes processor data, so it does not condemn Agentforce, but it leaves the treatment of Agentforce usage telemetry unanswered.

A buyer assessing an agent that acts on CRM data needs the retention window for agent transcripts and audit logs and a clear statement on whether agent interaction telemetry feeds Salesforce's own model or service improvement. Neither is on the public pages captured.

Question for vendor: What is the retention period for Agentforce conversation transcripts, reasoning traces and action logs within Salesforce, and is any Agentforce usage or interaction data used to train or improve Salesforce's own models or services?

!LLM providers and sub-processors for Agentforce are not named publiclyGap

Salesforce acknowledges that the Trust Layer sends prompts to third-party large language models but no stashed page names the providers or model families. The Infrastructure & Sub-processors document, which lists sub-processors and processing countries, and the Trusted AI Resources repository are referenced but not captured. Agentforce also reaches customer-selected third-party MCP servers from AgentExchange partners, and runs on Hyperforce whose underlying cloud is not identified on these pages. The only model named anywhere in the stash is Claude Sonnet 4.5 as the default model for Agentforce Vibes (the coding assistant) in Developer Edition; that is a different product and does not establish which models the Agentforce agent platform uses.

Without the provider names a buyer cannot assess the model supply chain, cross-border flows or the contractual position of the LLM vendors. The I&S document likely answers this and should be obtained; model_provider_transparency and subprocessors_and_supply_chain are assessed as partial on that basis rather than not_evidenced.

Question for vendor: Which LLM providers and model families does Agentforce use in Australian deployments, are they listed as sub-processors in the I&S document, and where are they hosted?

!No incident-response or vulnerability-handling disclosure captured; AU residency not committedGap

vulnerability_and_incident_handling is assessed as not_evidenced, not not_applicable: Agentforce is a hosted service and Salesforce could publish breach notification, vulnerability disclosure and incident-response commitments, but the stashed pages carry only a security-blog index and a pointer to the SPARC documents that describe controls. Separately, the IRAP listings show an Australia-specific Hyperforce deployment of Agentforce exists, but no sentence commits to processing or storing customer data in Australia, so data_location is recorded as mixed rather than favourable. Change management is partial: a documentation Change Log and sub-processor notifications exist, but no model or agent behaviour change notification is described.

Incident-handling and residency commitments are standard contract items for government and regulated buyers; their absence here reflects what the public pages captured rather than a confirmed vendor failure, and the SPARC, DPA and I&S documents should be requested to close the gap.

Question for vendor: Provide the SPARC for Einstein Platform/Agentforce and the I&S document, confirm the breach notification timeframe and vulnerability disclosure process, and confirm whether Australian customers' Agentforce data is stored and processed only in Australian Hyperforce regions.

Where each standard behind this assessment stands today, from TrustyCyber’s continuously maintained standards radar.

AI management system · Anchor for responsible AI governance — internal audit, management review and continual improvement. World's first AI management system standard.
NIST AI RMF 1.0 (AI 100-1)Published (2023; GenAI profile 2024)
AI risk management (+ Generative AI Profile) · Voluntary AI RMF (Govern/Map/Measure/Manage); the US counterpart to ISO/IEC 42001 for AI governance.
Interpretation of the 13 APPs · Authoritative APP interpretation under the Privacy Act 1988; watch for privacy-reform updates.
EU AI Act (Reg 2024/1689)In force, phased to 2028 (amended by Reg (EU) 2026/1744)
AI regulation — risk tiers, GPAI, high-risk obligations · Extraterritorial AI law; GPAI obligations and the Code of Practice are live. The Digital Omnibus on AI, Regulation (EU) 2026/1744 (OJ 24 Jul 2026, in force 27 Jul 2026), defers Annex III standalone high-risk obligations to 2 Dec 2027 and Annex I embedded high-risk to 2 Aug 2028; Article 50 transparency duties applied from 2 Aug 2026.
ISMS requirements · Core assurance anchor. Amendment 1 (2024) adds climate-action considerations to clauses 4.1/4.2; base edition remains 2022.
PII protection in public clouds · 3rd edition (Aug 2025), aligned to 27002:2022 with a new Annex B; useful for SaaS privacy, processor obligations and customer assurance packs.
130-control AI usage framework · Control-level AI usage framework with mandatory/supplemental classifications and evidence guidance.
Requirements for management-system certification bodies · The base certification-body standard that ISO/IEC 27006-1 and 42006 extend; foundational for audit/cert integrity (also in the reference vault).

This automated result is based on publicly available information at the time of scanning. It is not an audit, certification, legal opinion or assurance engagement. Publicly unavailable evidence may materially change the conclusion.
