Configure Salesforce Instance in Skyhigh CASB's Sandbox Environment

Skyhigh CASB provides a Sandbox environment to configure a proxy for your Salesforce instance. Use the following steps to configure your inline proxy to monitor traffic to and from Salesforce for Data Loss Prevention actions and anomaly detection.

NOTE: Once the Salesforce instance is configured with the primary or the secondary proxy regions in the Skyhigh CASB's Sandbox environment, you can move the same instance to production. For details, see Move Salesforce Instance to Production.
