Our experts identify vulnerabilities, check security architectures and help you to make your digital landscape resilient in the long term.

Challenges in SAP cybersecurity

The threat situation for companies is becoming increasingly complex and traditional IT security solutions often fall short in the SAP environment. SAP systems are often viewed in isolation and in many cases are not integrated into comprehensive security checks. As a result, relevant attack surfaces remain undetected. 

In addition, many organizations regard SAP as a "black box" that is difficult to understand. Without the necessary specialist knowledge, potential vulnerabilities are overlooked - a risk that cyber criminals have long recognized. ERP systems such as SAP are increasingly coming under scrutiny as they combine central business processes and sensitive data. 

There is also often a lack of targeted security validation in the development process. Incorrect configurations, insufficiently tested interfaces and, in particular, the often neglected RFC communication pose considerable risks. Those who do not take active countermeasures here open the door to attackers.

FAQs

Cybersecurity comprises measures and technologies that protect digital systems, networks and data from unauthorized access and attacks. The aim is to ensure confidentiality, integrity and availability. In the SAP context, this means protecting critical business processes, master data and transactions from internal and external threats.

A single successful attack is enough to get companies into serious trouble - through data loss, reputational damage, production downtime or compliance breaches. SAP systems are particularly attractive targets as they are at the heart of the company's IT and provide access to all critical business data. 

A penetration test is a controlled, simulated cyber attack to identify vulnerabilities - carried out by experts with the perspective of real attackers. SAP penetration tests check specific ERP components, RFC connections and industry-specific configurations for security vulnerabilities. 

SAP systems are only secure if they are regularly checked, correctly configured and continuously patched. Without targeted SAP-specific security measures, critical gaps remain undetected. Standard IT security tools often do not cover the specific risks of ERP systems. 

We combine many years of SAP experience with state-of-the-art security know-how - practical, individual and always at eye level. As SAP specialists, we understand the special technical features of ERP systems and can optimally address industry-specific security requirements. Our expertise ranges from the automotive industry to the healthcare sector.
