  2. Here are 7 considerations for Salesforce data security and the quality of your code: ▪ Coding Errors Enable Data Loss/Corruption ▪ Bugs Create Vulnerabilities ▪ Improper Code Can Create Unwanted Changes ▪ Metadata Impacts Functionality and Security ▪ Finding Coding Errors Early Reduces Overhead Costs ▪ Main Types of Security Liabilities from Bad Code ▪ SANS, CWE and OWASP Standards 5/20/2022 www.autorabit.com 2

  3. 1. Coding Errors Enable Data Loss/Corruption ▪ The structure of your update or application will impact the way in which data is handled within it. And if your application has coding errors, there is a chance the input data will be miscataloged, forwarded to the wrong location, or simply lost. 2. Bugs Create Vulnerabilities ▪ Any errors or bugs that exist within your system are potential entry points for cybercriminals. These errors can also potentially create a scenario where a team member unknowingly exposes sensitive information. 5/20/2022 www.autorabit.com 3

  4. 3. Improper Code Can Create Unwanted Changes ▪ Proper testing is an essential aspect of every Salesforce DevOps project. Your team needs to be able to predict how any new lines of code will interact with each other, as well as how they’ll interact with the rest of your system when the new update goes live. 4. Metadata Impacts Functionality and Security Any discussion of Salesforce data security also needs to address metadata. The metadata within your system has a huge impact on the functionality of your related fields, for instance, and can have a negative effect if it becomes compromised. 5/20/2022 www.autorabit.com 4

  5. 5. Finding Coding Errors Early Reduces Overhead Costs ▪ Every business consideration is going to eventually discuss the return on investment. Most transactions will be framed on what you risk and what you can gain. Maintaining high code quality has a direct impact on both your Salesforce data security efforts as well as your ROI. 6. Main Types of Security Liabilities from Bad Code Bad code impacts Salesforce data security in a variety of ways. The best way to guard against these negative results is to be aware of them in the first place. 5/20/2022 www.autorabit.com 5

  6. 7. SANS, CWE and OWASP Standards ▪ The quality of your code can be measured by many different standards. Effectiveness and functionality of the eventual product are common ways to judge the success of an update or application, but they are not the only ways. There are a few notable institutions that purport standards to which your code can be compared. SANS ▪ SANS Technology Institute began in 1989 with the goal of providing insights relating to informational security. Today, they are a respected resource for cybersecurity education. They provide training and certification for individuals to learn more about the tools, research, and skills that create a more secure technological infrastructure. 5/20/2022 www.autorabit.com 6
