This update has gone live on 23rd June, 9 AM ET
Apsona, maintaining the security, reliability, and long-term stability of our products is one of our highest priorities. As technology platforms evolve and security standards continue to advance, we regularly review and enhance our applications to ensure our customers benefit from the latest protections and best practices.
As part of these ongoing efforts, we are implementing a series of security enhancements to Apsona Scheduler. These updates are designed to strengthen authentication processes, improve account protection, and ensure that Apsona Scheduler remains a secure, reliable, and future-ready solution for Salesforce users.
While most customers will notice little to no change in their day-to-day experience, these improvements represent an important investment in safeguarding access to your data and maintaining the resilience of our platform.
💡 Why We're Making These Enhancements
Security is not a one-time initiative. It is an ongoing commitment that requires continuous evaluation, improvement, and adaptation.
At Apsona, we regularly assess our applications against evolving industry standards, emerging security practices, and platform recommendations. By proactively adopting modern security controls, we help reduce potential risks, strengthen account protection, and ensure our products continue to meet the expectations of organizations that rely on Apsona every day.
These enhancements are part of our broader commitment to providing software that customers can trust with their most important business processes and data.
⚙️ What Is Changing?
The upcoming Apsona Scheduler update includes several security and authentication enhancements designed to improve how Scheduler securely connects to Salesforce and manages ongoing access.
Key improvements include:
Stronger Login Verification
We are enhancing the authorization process with additional verification checks during authentication, providing stronger protection against unauthorized access attempts.
Improved Token Security
Scheduler will adopt enhanced token management practices that automatically replace older authentication tokens with newly issued ones, reducing the risk associated with long-lived credentials.
Enhanced Inactivity Protection
Authentication credentials that remain unused for extended periods will automatically expire, helping organizations maintain stronger security controls over inactive integrations.
Greater Network Access Control
Organizations will have the ability to restrict authentication requests to approved network locations, providing an additional layer of protection over Scheduler access.
These improvements help strengthen security while ensuring Scheduler remains aligned with current Salesforce security standards and best practices.
📋 What Does This Mean for Customers?
For most users, the experience of using Apsona Scheduler will remain unchanged.
However, following deployment, Salesforce Administrators will be asked to complete a simple one-time re-authentication process to ensure that scheduled jobs continue running successfully under the updated security framework.
The process is straightforward and typically takes only a few minutes to complete.
To help administrators complete this process successfully, we have provided the following resources:
