Abstract	Salesforce Shield is a comprehensive security solution designed to protect sensitive data and ensure compliance within the Salesforce ecosystem. As cyber threats grow in complexity, organizations must adopt robust security frameworks to safeguard their critical information. Salesforce Shield addresses key security challenges through core components such as Platform Encryption, Event Monitoring, Einstein Data Detect and Field Audit Trail. These features enable organizations to encrypt sensitive data with AES-256 encryption, monitor user activities in real time, and maintain long-term audit records for regulatory compliance. A case study on a healthcare network highlights the tangible benefits of Salesforce Shield, demonstrating improved data security, real-time threat detection, and streamlined compliance processes. By leveraging Salesforce Shield, organizations can enhance their security posture while maintaining operational efficiency.
