The heartbeat of our community and the stories that define us
General Questions
What does the name “Vie” mean?
The name reflects our dual philosophy. In French, Vie means “Life”, representing our commitment to compliance as a living, breathing system. In English, to “Vie” is to compete and win your share of the global market with our compliance platform.
Is Vie an accredited certification body?
Yes, “Vie Cert” operates as a completely independent entity and holds full IAF accreditation as an ISO 17021 Certification Body (CB). This means that it is authorized to perform its duties without influence from other organizations.
Data & Security
How does Vie protect our sensitive system data?
Security is our DNA. We use AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS 1.2+ in transit. Vie never “sees” your raw data; our API integrations only pull the metadata required for compliance evidence (e.g., configuration settings, user access logs, and encryption status).
Does the AI have access to our source code?
No. Our Intelligent Audits AI looks at the metadata of your development environment (like “Is branch protection enabled?” or “Are pull requests reviewed?”). We never store or analyze your proprietary source code.
Auditor Acceptance
Will external auditors accept “Digital Document Control” instead of paper?
Absolutely yes. In fact, they prefer it. ISO standards (like ISO 9001 and 27001) require documents to be “controlled.” Our system provides a verified audit trail, version history, and e-signatures that are more secure and easier to verify than traditional paper or PDF folders.
How does “Intelligent Audits AI” work with human auditors?
Our AI acts as a “Pre-Auditor.” It does the heavy lifting of data collection and gap analysis so that when the human auditor arrives for Stage 1 or Stage 2, the evidence is already organized and validated. This leads to a faster, smoother, and more objective auditing process.
Platform & Integration
Can we migrate our existing legacy documents into Vie?
Yes. For our Enterprise clients, we offer a “Legacy Migration” service. Our team and our AI tools help you digitize, tag, and map your old PDFs and spreadsheets into the Vie digital ecosystem so you can finally go 100% paperless.
What happens if we lose our internet connection or the SaaS is down?
Vie is built on a highly available, redundant cloud architecture with a 99.9% uptime SLA. Additionally, you can export your entire compliance library and audit trails at any time, ensuring you always have a “hard copy” for your records.
