Security Center Implementation Steps
1. Security Center License Enabled
Under System Permissions, look for the Manage Security Center permission. If it’s there, then Security Center is enabled. If not, contact your account representative to get the license. Ensure this is enabled for both Parent and Child tenant.
2. Grant your users access to the Security Center app
Create a permission set or custom profile or select one that you want to use, and then add the Manage Security Center and View Security Center Pages permission.
3. Designate Parent And Child Tenant
Identify Parent and Child Tenant orgs. Production Tenant can monitor sandbox tenants as well as other production Tenants. Sandbox Tenants can only monitor other Sandbox Tenants and not Production tenant.
4. Deploy Security Policies
Create policies to define security settings, then select the tenants to deploy them to . Policy types include Trusted IP Ranges, Health Check Baseline, Password Configuration, and Session Settings.
** Security Center refreshes its data once per day and stores 6 months of data.
** Feature is available in Enterprise, Performance, Developer and Unlimited editions.
Summary
Security Center is available for free in Developer Edition orgs. All other editions require you to purchase a license.
