Seriously? Salesforce Now?

Right, listen up. The FBI – those guys – have issued a warning because some script kiddies (and probably worse) are targeting Salesforce customers. Shocking, I know. Like anyone with half a brain *wasn’t* expecting this. Apparently, these clowns are using stolen credentials – usually phished or bought on the dark web, you absolute morons – to get into accounts and then sell off the data. They’re focusing on financial services, healthcare, and tech companies because…well, duh, that’s where the good stuff is.

The attacks aren’t some fancy zero-day exploit; it’s mostly just brute-forcing logins or using compromised passwords. MFA bypass attempts are also happening, which means people are falling for *everything*. They’re specifically looking for customer data, PII, and anything they can ransom back to the victims. The FBI says they’ve seen this going on since at least October 2023, so if you’re a Salesforce admin and haven’t locked things down tighter than Fort Knox, you deserve whatever happens.

The advice? Enable MFA (seriously, *do it*), monitor login attempts, review third-party app access, and educate your users. You know, the basics that everyone ignores until their data is leaking all over the internet. Honestly, I’m starting to think some companies just *want* to get hacked.

Don’t come crying to me when you get pwned. I told you so.

   Look, I once had to clean up a mess where someone used “password” as their Salesforce password. *Password*. The entire company was compromised because of one idiot. One. And they wondered why their CRM data ended up on a Russian forum? Pathetic. Just…pathetic.
