    Profiles are those which defines user’s to perform different functions like settings and permissions in salesforce. It is another way to restrict or control access to a particular record.

    Profiles are of two types.

    Standard Profile: Profiles created by force.com are called Standard Profiles.
    Custom Profiles: Profiles created by the user are called Custom Profiles

    A profile is a group/collection of settings and permissions that define what a user can do in Salesforce. A profile controls “Object permissions, Field permissions, User permissions, Tab settings, App settings, Apex class access, Visualforce page access, Page layouts, Record Types, Login hours & Login IP ranges.
