As your organization adopts more cloud applications, your network perimeter blurs, making it more challenging to prevent data leaks. Together, Salesforce, Slack, and Zscaler deliver a dynamic perimeter that provides superior security for your sensitive data in transit and at rest.

The Challenges

Data sharing

Every day, Salesforce and Slack users generate massive amounts of data and upload countless attachments for active collaboration among stakeholders across geographies and functions. However, a simple click can expose this information to the public, putting your organization at risk.

Regulatory compliance

Enterprise data stored in Salesforce and Slack may contain sensitive information subject to compliance frameworks, data privacy laws, and industry regulations. Noncompliance can lead to fines, brand damage, and revenue loss.

Visibility

Misconfigurations of cloud application security controls and mismanagement of data at rest are the leading causes of data breaches today. Unfortunately, security teams relying on legacy network-based tools can’t analyze the security postures of their cloud app instances or inspect the content stored in them.

Mergers and acquisitions

Organizations growing via M&A often have multiple Slack instances configured to fit different security policies. Security teams are already challenged to gain visibility into private channels and direct messages, and dealing with new tenants and inter-tenant comms governance only adds greater complexity.
