SummaryManaging user permissions in Salesforce has shifted towards a permission set-led model where profiles provide baseline user settings and permission sets with groups manage more granular access. This approach reduces complexity by minimizing the number of profiles and allows admins to assign flexible, reusable permission sets based on job tasks. Permission set groups enable bundling of permission sets with the added benefit of muting specific permissions, streamlining user access management. Adopting this strategy helps build scalable, auditable, and maintainable security models.
