At Web3 Enabler, our mission is to make the creation and management of Web3 security policy within Salesforce as straightforward and scalable as possible for real-world businesses—across industries ranging from fintech to supply chain. As organizations embrace blockchain and digital assets, security policies must evolve to address new forms of credentials and risk, without adding friction to day-to-day operations.
The Challenges of Traditional Corporate Security Policies
In a recent X poll, I asked cybersecurity professionals which login-related compliance requirements tend to meet the most resistance from clients or employees. The most common culprits were
- Requiring the use of a password manager
- Enforcing minimum password length
- Mandating password rotation after suspected compromise
- And other measures that users perceive as inconvenient
This resistance often stems from a lack of clarity on whether these measures are best practices or actual compliance mandates. When security feels optional—or worse, arbitrary—pushback can be costly, leading to policy noncompliance, internal friction, or even breach risks.
Web3 Security Brings New Complexities
Managing login credentials in Web3 environments introduces entirely new challenges for enterprises:
- Self-custody assumptions don’t scale: Many Web3 wallet security recommendations—like storing seed phrases offline—are designed for individuals, not teams. In corporate settings, where multiple users need access to shared wallets, traditional self-custody practices break down.
- Unchangeable credentials: Unlike Web2 systems, users cannot rotate or reset private keys or seed phrases for Web3 wallets. If these are compromised, there’s no password reset—only loss of access.
These realities demand practical, organization-wide policies tailored to how teams actually work in enterprise blockchain settings.
Empowering Enterprise Security Inside Salesforce
To address these gaps, Web3 Enabler’s Blockchain Payments solution delivers actionable, easy-to-manage security features directly inside Salesforce, including:
- Compliance automation integrations that adapt to internal policy rules and external regulations.
- Management of information about Org Wallets and Account Wallets, ensuring clarity around who has access to what.

These tools help teams build resilient security postures that make sense in the Web3 era—no need to rewrite enterprise policies from scratch.
