How Astreca Helps You Implement Salesforce Shield for Enhanced Security
Data security is a top priority for businesses using cloud platforms like Salesforce. With sensitive customer data and business information stored in the cloud, ensuring the proper security measures are in place is crucial.

Tailored Solutions for Salesforce Shield Components
Guidance on Event Monitoring Setup and Configuration
One of Salesforce Shield’s most powerful features is Event Monitoring. This tool allows you to track user activity and gain insights into what’s happening in your Salesforce environment in real time. By identifying abnormal behavior, you can prevent data breaches before they happen. According to a Salesforce report, organizations that effectively use Event Monitoring reduce the risk of insider threats and malicious access by 27%.
Astreca helps you configure Salesforce Event Monitoring to track critical activities, such as login attempts, data exports, and API calls, allowing you to maintain control over your data.
Custom Platform Encryption Solutions from Astreca
Platform Encryption is crucial for securing sensitive data like customer records, financial information, and personally identifiable information (PII). Salesforce Shield’s encryption ensures that even if unauthorized parties access your data, they won’t be able to read it. As 83% of companies now recognize data encryption as a key factor in data security, configuring it properly is more important than ever.
Astreca’s team customizes encryption solutions to your business’s specific data protection needs, ensuring encryption covers all critical areas without impacting performance or user experience.
Optimizing Field Audit Trail with Astreca’s Expertise
A robust audit trail is critical for companies in heavily regulated industries, such as finance and healthcare. Salesforce Shield’s Field Audit Trail allows organizations to record changes to sensitive data fields, providing transparency and accountability. Salesforce estimates that businesses implementing audit trail solutions reduce compliance audit preparation time by 35%.
Astreca optimizes Field Audit Trail settings, ensuring you capture all the necessary data changes while maintaining performance. This level of visibility makes it easier to comply with regulations like GDPR and HIPAA.
