Top Five Ways to Protect Your Salesforce Data

Is Your Salesforce Data Protected?

If ‘NOT,’ you will have to suffer from ● ● ● ● ●

Monetary Loss Interrupted Workflow Damaged Reputation Compliance Actions Broken Trust

Let’s See How to Escape from This Fear

1.

Implement Restricted Access Control

If you have set limited administrative access to your Salesforce data, the attackers (internal or external) face difficulty to gain control of privileged admin accounts during unfortunate events like cyberattacks.

The Salesforce permission model offers advanced capabilities, allowing you to set permissions at multiple levels: ●

Object Level

●

Field Level

●

User Level

●

Role Level

2. Enable Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)

If you have only a single level of the authentication procedure, adopt MFA and ask users to undergo multiple steps. You can demand them to confirm identification through more than a single form of authentication such as; ●

Username and password

●

Use unique logins for third-party apps

●

Security keys outside the centralized system

1.

Detect Security Weaknesses and Configuration Errors

Understand your Salesforce data and often identify security vulnerabilities to ensure its protection. To identify the security vulnerabilities and misconfiguration, either use Salesforce’s Health Check Tool or any third-party app.

3. Inspect Potentially Harmful Codes

Do you suspect that any of your code is harmful?

If yes, watch them closely!

You can use an automated tool that can analyze the code on your organization’s Salesforce and identify any malicious components. However, for an extra layer of assurance, it is advisable to perform a manual examination of the files, although this process can be difficult.

5. Perform Regular Backups

Here’s the most recommended practice!

Create a copy of your Salesforce data and metadata in a platform outside of your Salesforce environment using an advanced backup tool so that you can recover it to the production org in case of a data loss scenario.
