Data Security in Salesforce

Salesforce provides a flexible data security and sharing model that controls access to data at multiple levels. This includes the organization, object, field, and record levels. The model can be entirely configured through the user interface and applies to both the UI and API access. It is recommended to make a table defining the data access levels for different user types in the organization to implement an effective security and sharing model.

Data Security in Salesforce

Salesforce Data security deals with the security or sharing settings of data and visibility
between users or groups of users across the organization. Force.com platform provides a
flexible, layered sharing model that makes it easy to assign different data sets to different sets
of users.

Security and Sharing model can be configured entirely using the user interface yet it is
implemented at the API level which means any permissions specified for objects, records and
fields apply even if a user query or update the data via API calls.

Level of Data Access


 

The data access on Salesforce is configured in four levels, the following are:

Organization Level
The access to the whole organization is secured at this level by maintaining a list of
authorized users, setting password policies, and limiting login access to certain hours and
certain locations.

Object Level
Object-level security provides the simplest way to control which users have access to which
data. By setting permissions on a particular type of object, you can prevent a group of users
from creating, viewing, editing, or deleting any records of that object.

Field Level
Field Level security restricts access to certain fields, even for objects a user already has
access to.

Record Level
Record Level security lets users access some records but not others. It is used to control data
access with greater precision. Users can have access to view an object, but can be restricted to
the individual records.

Note:

Always make a table for various types of users and the level of access of data that each user
has in your organization to implement a security and sharing model.
