The Highlights:
Mason Frank on data security during the COVID-19 crisis:
“Recent events have meant remote working has become widespread a little sooner than anticipated, and CRM users all over the world are now accessing Salesforce and its data on their personal devices. In the face of increased remote working and a growing reliance on digital systems, businesses need to step up their efforts to protect their data from both internal and external threats.”
Jaineesh Davda, FormAssembly Director of Infrastructure and Security, on the evolving data security space:
“Finance and healthcare industries are at major risk as these industries are highly regulated and tech modernization is often slow. I recently read a quote that stated, ‘Rapid digital transformation has been led by COVID-19 and not the CIO or CTO.’ This means they must react and optimize their systems for the new climate.”
Chris Gardner, Salesforce Architect, on the importance of data security in Salesforce:
“Any org that is running a community should review their external sharing and security model, including that of guest users. When you’re potentially exposing Salesforce data to external users through a community, you want to take extra care to lockdown records, objects and permissions. It’s not uncommon to have overly permissive security and sharing here.”
