⛰️ 🔐 New Hands-on Workshop for Premier & Signature Admins: Secure the Org: Find and Fix Vulnerabilities (ADX012)

 Misconfigured security settings are one of the leading causes of data breaches. In this 90-minute instructor-led workshop, you'll step into the role of an internal security auditor to identify and fix real Salesforce vulnerabilities across the most common misconfiguration areas. 

This workshop was adapted from a fan-favorite capture-the-flag game that has been a hit at live Salesforce events — now available virtually so more admins can play! This practical workshop is for:

• Newer admins — you'll find the challenges approachable and manageable. The hands-on format makes security feel less daunting and more actionable
• Seasoned practitioners — you'll likely discover security settings you haven't previously been aware of
• All learners — challenges are independent of each other, so you can move at your own pace, skip ahead, and circle back with no pressure

Sessions are live and available!

• Fri Jul 31 — 9:00am ET [AMER]
• Mon Aug 3 — 3:30pm ET [AMER]
• Tue Aug 11 — 10:00am CET [EMEA]

*** Important updates: MFA Enforcement Update: R1 Window Rescheduled to July 27-28 ***We wanted to give you a heads-up that the R1 MFA enforcement window has been updated. Here's what you need to know:

What Changed

The R1 enforcement window has moved from July 21–22 to July 27–28.

Why the Change

We made this adjustment to address a few things:

• Additional time was needed to fully process previously approved extensions
• Some SSO users on orgs with approved extensions were being unexpectedly prompted for MFA

If You Have an Approved Extension

Keep in mind that approved extensions can take up to 48 hours to take effect, so you may still see MFA prompts during that window.

If your org has an approved extension but you're still being prompted for a passkey, please refer to this Knowledge Article for detailed guidance on specific use cases.

What's Not Changing

• The MFA for All schedule remains the same
• R2a, R2b, Japan & Korea, and all subsequent release groups are on their original schedules

Where to Find the Latest Info

The PRMFA Knowledge Article has been updated to reflect the new R1 window — that's your best source for the current schedule and details.
