Salesforce Security Basics
The Salesforce security features help you empower your users to do their jobs safely
and efficiently. Salesforce limits exposure of data to the users that act on it. Implement
security controls that you think are appropriate for the sensitivity of your data. We'll
work together to protect your data from unauthorized access from outside your company and
from inappropriate usage by your users.

Phishing and Malware
If you see something suspicious related to your Salesforce implementation, report it to security@salesforce.com, in addition to your own IT or security team. Trust starts with transparency. That’s why Salesforce displays real-time information on system performance and security at https://trust.salesforce.com. For security-specific information, go to https://trust.salesforce.com/security. This site provides live data on system performance, alerts for current and recent phishing and malware attempts, and tips on security best practices for your organization. -
Security Health Check
As an admin, you can use Health Check to identify and fix potential vulnerabilities in your security settings, all from a single page. A summary score shows how your org measures against a security baseline like the Salesforce Baseline Standard. You can upload up to five custom baselines to use instead of the Salesforce Baseline Standard. -
Auditing
Auditing provides information about use of the system, which can be critical in diagnosing potential or real security issues. Salesforce auditing features don't secure your organization by themselves. Have someone in your organization perform regular audits to detect potential abuse. -
Salesforce Shield
Salesforce Shield is a trio of security tools that helps you build extra levels of trust, compliance, and governance right into your business-critical apps. It includes Shield Platform Encryption, Event Monitoring, and Field Audit Trail. Ask your Salesforce administrator if Salesforce Shield is available in your org.
