Security Architecture
The mechanisms that earn trust: making sure data is visible only to the people meant to see it.
Salesforce offers many different security settings — profiles, permission sets, field-level security, sharing rules — and it’s easy to reach for the wrong one. In this series, I walk through what each mechanism does and when to use it, so the choice is deliberate rather than a guess.
Whether you’re locking down a new org or auditing an existing one, the goal is to understand which setting solves which problem.
