How Salesforce Governs Agentic AI with Data 360
Salesforce positions data governance as a core feature for agentic AI, not an afterthought
“you must deny access by default. That way any data you add in perpetuity is already denied by default.”
Salesforce advocates for domain-based data governance via its Data 360 platform as a prerequisite for safe agentic AI deployments, emphasizing deny-by-default and least-privilege principles. The company argues that without proper data governance, agents produce inconsistent or incorrect outputs. This reframes data governance from compliance overhead to a first-class capability that determines agent reliability.
