SAP Security Intelligence
Enterprises pay millions, even hundreds of millions of dollars, in SAP licensing fees, but the average SAP user only utilizes 7% of his or her authorizations. How does this happen?
It happens because SAP is not primarily about security. Widespread use of privileged access (SAP_ALL), the accumulation of unnecessary authorizations, the static structure of SAP security –all of these lead to circumstances where breaches are discovered only during an audit or following a customer query.
It also happens because managing SAP security is complicated. Security teams can’t always tell which authorizations are used, unused, underused or duplicated. SAP_ALL and other super user authorizations are often not removed when a user’s job no longer requires them. Internal auditors, who do not come from IT, are often typically uncomfortable with the technology of complex ERP systems. Security Officers and Risk Managers must rely on SAP specialists to retrieve information.
Now, Adventier introduces a suite of SAP Security Intelligence tools to shine a light into the abyss of authorizations and make true SAP security possible for the first time–quickly, thoroughly, and easily.
