How Ransomware Affects Salesforce Environments
Ransomware is a form of malware that encrypts a victim's files. The attacker then demands a ransom from the victim to restore access to the data upon payment, and the scary part is, standard gateway virus scanning applications do not apply to Salesforce users.

How viruses enter Salesforce via Email-to-Case Functionality
Malicious content easily bypasses gateway, desktop, and email virus scanning solutions to enter directly into Salesforce environments. Here's how to handle it.

Best Practices for Salesforce Cybersecurity
--------------------------------------------------------------
Every Salesforce customer needs to protect their environments against malicious content.
- Viruses allow hackers to steal your customers’ data.
- Salesforce does NOT include inherent virus scanning to fend off malware, ransomware and other malicious attacks.
- Network gateway virus scanning applications are not sufficient to protect Salesforce environments as they cannon access data entering from outside of the network (communities/sites).
- A third-party application MUST be “connected” to Salesforce in order to scan content for viruses.

Salesforce administrators, architects and Success Managers, if you or your customers are adding files/attachments to their environments, there is no inherent virus scanner built into Salesforce to check them for viruses. The only way to verify attachments do not contain malicious content is to connect a third-party application to scan environments.
And, before you go there, an antivirus software connected to a corporate network will not apply here as many of the virus scanning applications have not been updated (employees turn off or delay updates), and many files are entered into Salesforce via communities and sites by the public who have no connection to the corporate network. Salesforce is it's own echo-system and needs it's own virus scanner to address attachments. EZProtect is the industry leading solution, and will soon release an API and On-Demand Scanner which will block files from entering the environments before they are scanned. Have a look at this demo video to understand how it works (6 minutes with technical issues), and contact Adaptus to request a quote. Year-end budgets are coming up, so please be proactive!
