Filecoin Salesforce Use Cases

Decentralized storage meets various pain points for the enterprise.  Bringing Filecoin decentralized storage to Salesforce, the world’s leading CRM software, empowers businesses and the Filecoin ecosystem to fully leverage the innovative potential. 

Benefits include security and compliance, as well as other enhancements that enable true digital transformation.

Use Case #1:  Photos for Verifying Contacts’ Identities

Store photos of contacts in Filecoin, and connect them to Salesforce.

This is used to check headshots supplied by contacts against those contacts’ photo IDs to help companies meet know your customer (KYC) compliance requirements.

These checks can also be fed into workflow automatons, such as triggering e-mail alerts to a company compliance officer when the photos and photo IDs do not match. 

Use Case #2:  Encrypted Corporate Documents

Filecoin for Salesforce Files Connect would empower businesses to upload documents stored on Filecoin to an account, which is a Salesforce object that contains information about a company or organization, such as a customer or a vendor.

Documents, such as contracts, which contain sensitive company information, must be stored with confidentiality, integrity and availability in mind. 

Consider the following ways that Filecoin addresses these security principles for businesses. 

  • Confidentiality:  Filecoin implements encryption, authentication and authorization best practices in order to preserve privacy by design.   
  • Integrity:  Content addressing makes links to files immutable. 
  • Availability:  Decentralized storage can free users of limitations put in place by the few corporate data storage providers, who hold an unreasonable amount of market power.
