Salesforce is introducing a new wave of security controls by June 2026 to combat rising cyberattacks targeting its environments and customers. Organizations must prepare for these updates to avoid negative impacts.
Salesforce is implementing significant security changes for 2026, responding to widespread breaches and vulnerabilities experienced in 2025. These updates, while crucial for platform security, are reportedly causing considerable challenges for solo Salesforce administrators.
Salesforce is rolling out urgent security updates to its CLI, redacting sensitive credentials from standard outputs and requiring new explicit commands for retrieval. These changes will break existing CI/CD pipelines unless action is taken immediately to implement a temporary workaround and migrate to the new commands.
Salesforce hosted an Admin Day of Security to empower admins as proactive security leaders in the agentic era, fostering critical collaboration with Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) for enhanced organizational security.
