Why Combine ApproveThis and Evervault?

When security infrastructure meets approval automation, businesses gain more than efficiency—they unlock precision. Evervault’s encryption-first approach secures sensitive data across applications, while ApproveThis turns governance into a repeatable process. Together, they create a framework where security alerts trigger immediate action without compromising oversight.

Consider how financial institutions handle transaction errors or healthcare providers manage patient data breaches. Manual review processes slow response times, creating compliance risks. By connecting Evervault’s real-time error detection with ApproveThis’s structured approval workflows, teams validate critical issues in minutes—not days—while maintaining audit trails for regulators.

Key Integration Benefits

Accelerated Incident Response

Evervault cages and relays monitor data flows 24/7. When anomalies occur, waiting for stakeholder availability creates bottlenecks. With ApproveThis, alerts automatically route to designated approvers via email or dashboard—no licenses required for external reviewers. A fintech company could escalate transaction errors to compliance officers before customers notice downtime.

Compliance Without Compromise

Approval thresholds in ApproveThis ensure high-risk alerts (e.g., potential PII leaks) always reach senior staff. Meanwhile, routine encryption updates follow predefined rules. A healthcare SaaS provider might auto-approve minor configuration changes but require CTO sign-off for database access requests.

Cross-Team Accountability

Security teams track remediation status in ApproveThis’s dashboard, while legal teams receive timestamped approval records. Vacation delegation prevents delays during holidays—critical for global enterprises managing breaches across time zones.

Real-World Use Cases

Fintech: Transaction Error Resolution

When Evervault detects abnormal encryption patterns in payment processing, ApproveThis routes the alert to fraud analysts and legal counsel simultaneously. Conditional logic ensures high-value transactions (>$50k) require CFO approval. Calculated fields prioritize alerts based on risk scores.

Healthcare: HIPAA Compliance Workflows

Patient data access requests through Evervault cages automatically generate approval chains in ApproveThis. Privacy officers review requests with context from EHR systems via Zapier. All rejections include audit-ready comments explaining HIPAA compliance decisions.

SaaS Vendors: Client-Specific Encryption

Enterprise clients demanding custom encryption settings trigger multi-step approvals. ApproveThis collects technical specs from engineering teams, then routes cost estimates to procurement. Clients approve changes directly via email without accessing internal systems.

Technical Implementation

Zapier Setup Overview

1. In Zapier, create a new Zap with Evervault as the trigger app.
2. Select “Alert” as the trigger event (detects relay/cage errors).
3. Connect ApproveThis as the action app, choosing “Create Request.”
4. Map Evervault alert details (error type, severity) to ApproveThis fields.
5. Test with real-world scenarios before activation.

Pro Tip: Use ApproveThis’s calculated fields to auto-prioritize alerts. For example, set high-risk Evervault error codes to trigger immediate SMS notifications to on-call staff.

Team-Specific Advantages

Security Operations

Reduce mean time to resolution (MTTR) by eliminating manual ticket creation. ApproveThis’s real-time dashboard shows which alerts are pending review, approved, or require escalation.

Compliance Officers

Preconfigure approval policies matching GDPR, CCPA, or industry standards. All decisions timestamped with IP logging—critical during regulatory audits.

Engineering Leaders

Maintain velocity without bypassing governance. Developers request encryption changes through existing tools (Jira, Slack), which ApproveThis converts into structured workflows.

Beyond Basic Alerts: Advanced Configurations

ApproveThis’s threshold rules enable tiered responses. For example:

  • Low-risk Evervault alerts (e.g., transient API errors) auto-approve remediation scripts
  • Medium-risk issues require team lead confirmation
  • High-severity incidents escalate to CISO with SLA-based reminders

Pair with vacation delegation to ensure offshore teams handle alerts during regional holidays. If an approver is OOO, requests reroute to deputies without manual intervention.

Why This Integration Works

Evervault focuses on detecting anomalies; ApproveThis specializes in acting on them. Traditional methods force teams to switch contexts between monitoring tools and spreadsheets. This integration embeds governance directly into the security lifecycle.

For companies managing client data, the license-free approver model is transformative. External auditors or client security teams can review incidents without software access—approvals happen via encrypted email with one-click decisions.

Getting Started

1. Enable Evervault alerts for critical relays/cages
2. Create a Zapier account (free tier available)
3. Build your first ApproveThis-Evervault Zap in <20 minutes
4. Train teams using ApproveThis’s granular permissions

For complex environments, schedule a custom demo to model multi-region approvals or SOC 2-compliant workflows.

The Bottom Line

Security isn’t just about preventing breaches—it’s about responding with intention. ApproveThis and Evervault turn reaction plans into repeatable processes. Development teams move faster because governance becomes predictable. Compliance teams spend less time chasing approvals. Executives gain real-time visibility into risk postures.
