About Salesforce Shield
Salesforce Shield is a comprehensive data security and compliance solution designed to protect sensitive information across the Salesforce platform. It provides advanced tools to monitor user activity, encrypt data, track changes, and detect sensitive information in real time. With Event Monitoring, organizations gain granular visibility into user behavior, API activity, and system performance through detailed event logs. Platform Encryption allows businesses to encrypt sensitive data at rest while maintaining control over encryption keys and compliance requirements. Field Audit Trail extends data history tracking to strengthen integrity and support forensic-level compliance. Data Detect uses intelligent pattern matching to identify and classify sensitive information such as credit card numbers and personal identifiers. Together, these capabilities help organizations mitigate risk, meet regulatory standards, and securely deploy AI-powered solutions like Agentforce.
