Why Salesforce Profiles Are Putting Orgs at Risk
Salesforce admins have relied on Profiles for decades. They feel familiar. They feel safe. According to Andrew Day, Fractional CISO and founder of 22 Nexus, that familiarity is exactly the problem.

This tension is nothing new. Hackers have always sought unauthorized access to systems, but historically, the barriers were high: computers were expensive and internet access was scarce. This is no longer true. This battle front…
