Salesforce Shield Architecture

Category: Sales · Sub-category: crm-systems

tool:salesforcetype:audit

Salesforce Shield as an architectural choice — Platform Encryption + Event Monitoring + Field Audit Trail as three SEPARATELY-LICENSED components, none of which ship in any standard edition. Covers BYOK vs Cache-Only Key Service (CCKM) tradeoffs, probabilistic vs deterministic encryption schemes, the field-type encryption blocklist (Formula, Roll-Up Summary, indexed External ID), Field Audit Trail's 10-year retention model, and why every Shield design starts with a license confirmation. NOT for individual feature setup steps (see security/platform-encryption, security/event-monitoring, security/field-audit-trail), NOT for compliance certification mapping (HIPAA / FedRAMP / PCI specifics).
