Browse Topics
1. Executive Security Overview
At Vista, we understand that the security of your sensitive sales data and buyer interactions is paramount to your business success. As a Digital Sales Room platform handling critical business information, call transcripts, and strategic sales documentation, we have implemented enterprise-grade security controls that meet the highest industry standards. Our comprehensive security framework protects your data throughout the entire sales lifecycle while enabling seamless collaboration between buyers and sellers.
2. Data Protection and Encryption
Encryption Standards
Vista employs industry-standard AES-256 encryption for all data at rest and in transit. All communications between your devices and our platform are protected using the latest TLS protocols with secure cipher suites. Our encryption implementation follows NIST guidelines and is continuously monitored to address emerging cryptographic threats.
Data Segregation and Architecture
Our platform operates on a secure multi-tenant architecture that provides logical data separation for each organization through unique identifiers. Customer data is stored redundantly across geographically distributed data centers with automatic failover capabilities. We maintain strict data residency controls and can accommodate specific geographic storage requirements for compliance purposes.
Data Retention and Deletion
Vista provides granular data retention controls allowing administrators to configure custom retention policies for different types of content including call transcripts, mutual action plans, and sales documents. Upon account termination, all customer data is permanently deleted from production systems within 30 days, with backup data destroyed within 14 days.
3. Access Control and Authentication
Identity and Access Management
Our platform implements role-based access control (RBAC) with principle of least privilege, ensuring users only access resources necessary for their specific functions. Vista supports enterprise identity providers including Okta, Azure AD, ADFS, and PingFederate through SAML 2.0 integration.
Multi-Factor Authentication
All user accounts, particularly administrative roles, are protected by mandatory multi-factor authentication (MFA). We support various MFA methods including SMS, authenticator apps, and hardware tokens to provide flexible security options for your organization.
Session Management
Vista implements intelligent session management with configurable timeout periods and concurrent session limits. Administrators can remotely terminate user sessions and revoke access in real-time across all devices.
4. Infrastructure Security
Cloud Security
Our infrastructure is built on enterprise-grade cloud services with comprehensive security monitoring and logging. We maintain 24/7 security operations center (SOC) monitoring with automated threat detection and incident response capabilities.
Network Protection
All network communications are protected by enterprise firewalls configured according to industry best practices. We implement network segmentation, intrusion detection systems, and continuous vulnerability scanning across all production environments.
Endpoint Security
Our security architecture includes comprehensive endpoint protection with full disk encryption, automated patch management, and continuous monitoring for unauthorized software or devices.
5. Compliance and Certifications

7. Digital Sales Room Specific Security
Content Protection
Given Vista's role in handling sensitive sales materials, proposals, and strategic documents, we implement specialized controls for digital sales room security. This includes time-limited access links, watermarked document viewing, and detailed audit trails of all buyer engagement activities.
Call Recording Security
Our Vista Notetaker feature, which transcribes calls via WhisperAPI, implements additional security measures including encrypted storage of audio data, automatic transcription processing, and secure deletion of temporary audio files. All call transcripts are treated with the same high-security standards as other sensitive business documents.
Buyer Privacy Protection
We recognize that digital sales rooms often involve external buyers who may have their own security requirements. Vista provides privacy controls that allow sellers to manage buyer access permissions while maintaining transparency about data collection and processing activities.
