Salesforce Certified Integration Architect — Question 40

Northern Trail Outfitters (NTO) is looking to integrate three external systems that run nightly data enrichment processes in Salesforce. NTO has both of the following security and strict auditing requirements:
1. The external systems must follow the principle of least privilege.
2. The activities of the external systems must be available for audit.

What should an integration architect recommend as a solution for these Integrations?

Answer options

• A. A shared integration user for the three external system integrations.
• B. A unique integration user for each external system integration.
• C. A shared Connected App for the three external system integrations.
• D. A Connected App for each external system integration.

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B because having a unique integration user for each external system ensures that the principle of least privilege is maintained and allows for clear auditing of each system's activities. Option A is incorrect as a shared user would not adhere to least privilege. Options C and D, while related to Connected Apps, do not address the unique user requirement necessary for effective auditing.
