Security News > 2021 > April > Using Salesforce? Here are 5 security and compliance considerations
The reason? While many mission-critical cloud applications like Salesforce have security functionality built-in, they don't consider the levels of customization and complexity that organizations introduce while implementing these solutions.
Security configurations: One of the most critical focus areas for Salesforce security is proper configurations.
Excessive authorizations: A lapse in Salesforce authorizations can lead to a security or system administrator having the authority to modify access permissions, edit security configurations, and even mass export sensitive data from the system at any time.
Security teams must ensure third-party integrations are set up according to security best practices to reduce the risk of attackers leveraging compromised third-party applications to gain access into Salesforce.
With so many conflicting priorities, these five considerations provide security teams with a concrete focus list for ensuring Salesforce implementations are secure and compliant.
By addressing these concerns head-on with security best practices and advanced technology, security teams can ensure Salesforce success for years to come.
