Achieving and maintaining an appropriate level of security and governance for their SAP system is an essential task for many organizations. While the overall SAP system landscape is changing and expanding dramatically with new solutions based on HANA technology and leveraging new deployment models in the cloud arriving at many of their customers, at the same time traditional SAP systems continue to be the foundation for essential core business processes.
While the first thing coming to our mind is traditional Access Governance covering role design, recertification and segregation of duties aspects, this challenge goes far beyond but that.
In this panel vendors will discuss state-of-the-art approaches for maintaining a complete picture of SAP security which has to include the protection and real-time control of all platforms (on premises, in the cloud, mobile), the management of privileged=high-risk accounts and code security across all products deployed. A special focus will be put on the analysis of real time user activities that for many vendors and customers comes with the promise of the detection of undesirable behaviour as it happens and adequate real-time responses.
