# Event Relay Security

Event relays send events to Amazon EventBridge securely using HTTP/1.1 with TLS. Event data is encrypted while in transit over the web. Salesforce is a registered partner of Amazon EventBridge and uses EventBridge Partner APIs to send events to Amazon EventBridge.

As a registered partner of EventBridge, Salesforce creates partner event sources and streams events to EventBridge without the need for AWS account authentication. Event relays use only the AWS account ID and region, which are stored in named credentials.
