...

The Security Connector overrides the ASP.NET membership provider so user data is only stored in Salesforce but appears in Sitecore in the “Salesforce” domain. This is commonly called "a single source of truth". After installing the Security Connector it is possible to control the Sitecore user's membership information, role, and profile from Salesforce. The most common way to implement roles is called "Multi-role" where fields in the Salesforce contact (or lead) record specify the Sitecore role. One or more Sitecore roles have the same names as selections in a custom multi-pick list in the Salesforce contact (or lead). 

Image Removed  IMPORTANT: The Security Connector is only required if you are using a custom login control. A typical use would be allowing privileged customers, or internal staff, to access Sitecore portal pages.

S4S Installation Overview

...

The basic install requires a package to be installed into Sitecore and some minor Salesforce customization. Once completed you can create, read, update and delete Salesforce objects from Sitecore (like Contacts, Leads, Opportunities, Documents, Cases or custom objects). You can execute this functionality in Sitecore using custom code (see the Starter Kit or examples in this document). Note that S4S typically pushes and pulls information to and from Salesforce after a Sitecore event (button click, page load, scheduled task etc.).
