Monitor and audit every Salesforce report export and file download in real-time. Ensure compliance, track data movement and maintain complete visibility over your organization's data exports.
A sales representative at one of our clients resigned and accepted a position at a competitor. On their last day, they exported the entire Account and Contact database from Salesforce—thousands of customer records containing sensitive business information.
By the time IT discovered what had happened, the employee had already wiped their laptop and phone. The company had no way to know exactly what was exported, when, or prove it in potential legal proceedings.
NAVAM Export Shield was built to solve exactly this problem. Every export, every download, every data extraction is logged with complete details—even if the employee deletes the files afterward.
Everything you need to track, audit, and secure your Salesforce data exports in one powerful extension.
Automatically detect and log all report exports including CSV, Excel (XLS/XLSX) and PDF formats with complete audit trails.
Track every file download from Salesforce Files, attachments, documents and Quote PDFs with user attribution.
Events are captured instantly and sent to Salesforce for immediate visibility. No delays, no data gaps.
Automatically captures the Salesforce user performing each export, enabling accountability and compliance tracking.
All export events are stored in a custom Salesforce object, enabling powerful reporting, dashboards and alerts.
Deploy across your entire organization via Intune or Group Policy with pre-configured settings. Zero manual setup per user.
Capture when users attempt to print Salesforce records, reports or files. Distinguish between downloads and print actions in your audit trail.
Track when users view Quote Documents and Files in the browser preview. Know who accessed sensitive documents even without downloading.
Every user interaction with your Salesforce data is captured and categorized for complete audit visibility.
When users export Salesforce Reports to CSV, Excel or other formats for external use.
When users download Files, Attachments, Quote PDFs or Documents to their local device.
When users preview Quote Documents or Files in the browser without downloading.
When users trigger the browser print dialog on Salesforce records, reports or documents.
Unique capability: Monitor exports across multiple Salesforce orgs from a single dashboard.
Many enterprises have multiple Salesforce orgs—from acquisitions, regional deployments or department-specific instances. Export Shield consolidates audit data from all orgs into a single central location.
