How does SharePoint Vitals communicate with my cloud environment?
Once the SharePoint sandbox code is activated on a site collection, a
hidden web part is placed on every page in the collection. This web part
contains two lines of code that contact SharePoint Vitals in Azure and
start the transfer of requested information from host headers and
requests.
The communication takes place at the users’ front end, rather than at
the server back-end. In other words, the server never communicates any of
your information to the “outside world”.
All user processes pass required
information to secure Azure-based storage, over a secure HTTPS
connection. All data is encrypted and only requested data is sent.
