What are session security levels in Salesforce?

Session security levels in Salesforce are designed to provide different degrees of security depending on the context and the sensitivity of the data being accessed. The correct choice highlights the two primary security levels: standard and high assurance.

The "standard" session security level allows for a reasonable amount of security that is suitable for most typical user operations within Salesforce. It balances usability with a fundamental level of protection, making it ideal for users needing access to standard Salesforce functionalities without overly stringent requirements.

On the other hand, the "high assurance" level is utilized when accessing more sensitive data or when performing high-risk operations. This level implements stricter security measures such as requiring multi-factor authentication and higher levels of identity verification during logins. This is especially crucial for organizations handling sensitive financial data, personal information, or other valuable assets.

By providing these two distinct levels, Salesforce allows organizations to tailor their security posture according to their specific requirements and the potential risks involved with user access or data exposure. This flexibility is essential for maintaining both security and user experience. Other options do not accurately reflect the established session security levels recognized within Salesforce's framework.
