The CISO Imperative: Taking Control of SAP Cyber Attacks

Unfortunately, although most companies focus on addressing business logic security with GRC solutions, securing SAP application platform and network infrastructures is often left to existing general security tools like firewalls and antivirus services. However, such tools are incapable of identifying application-specific vulnerabilities, misconfigurations or abnormal behavior patterns, because they lack relevant context information about SAP systems. Only specialized solutions that combine such information with the latest vulnerability intelligence are capable of providing reliable protection against SAP cyber-attacks.

In this webinar you will learn about:

• The security challenges of protecting business-critical applications against advanced cyber-attacks;
• Main attack vectors against SAP environments and how they can be used to gain access to sensitive information;
• Context-aware technologies that enable early discovery and remediation of security and compliance risks, as well as quick response to malicious activities.

In the first part of this webinar, Alexei Balaganski, Senior Analyst at KuppingerCole, will provide an overview of the security challenges that IT experts tasked with protecting business-critical applications are facing and explain why traditional security tools cannot provide adequate protection against advanced cyber-attacks.

In the second part, Alex Horan, Product Manager at Onapsis, will demonstrate how easily critical SAP systems can be exploited and explain how having a context-aware insight into SAP environments is critical for early detection and quick remediation of security problems.
