SAP Security: Your Effective Protection Against Cyber Risks
Protect your SAP landscape with Microsoft Sentinel solution for SAP® applications
Protect Your SAP Landscape with the World’s First and Only Detection Solution
SAP security encompasses all essential protective measures to safeguard the ERP system as the backbone of all business processes. For many companies, SAP is the core of their process and data structure. If it were to be crippled in the event of a hacker attack, such as a ransomware attack, the consequences would be severe – even leading to the failure of the entire operational technology (OT). However, many SAP landscapes are not adequately protected. Lacking authorization concepts, unsecured interfaces, and open ports increase the risk. With Arvato Systems, you can take your SAP security to the next level and rely on a holistic approach to protection.

SAP Security with Arvato Systems Offers You Numerous Advantages
Industries such as Manufacturing industry, Commerce and consumer goods and Energy and utility companies face enormous challenges when it comes to protecting their SAP landscapes. The threats are diverse - from ransomware and insider threats to targeted attacks on critical systems. A robust security strategy is therefore essential. Companies must see security as a continuous process that is regularly reviewed and optimized. This is exactly where Arvato Systems comes in: We combine our SAP expertise with state-of-the-art cyber security technologies to provide companies with sustainable security.
Upholding SAP security and declaring war on cyber criminals
The cybercrime industry is becoming increasingly professionalized. Conventional defensive measures, such as perimeter protection using firewalls, no longer offer sufficient protection - especially as there are more and more entry points for hackers. What's more, until now it has been difficult to connect SAP to existing security solutions in order to detect and eliminate threats. In addition, companies' own security experts often lack the necessary SAP know-how - and vice versa: SAP experts lack security knowledge. Investing in SAP security is therefore an essential measure to ensure frictionless, trouble-free and secure business operations in the future.
Process

How We Optimize Your SAP Security
Arvato Systems first checks the current status of your SAP security. We then select the appropriate strategies and tools to improve your protection in a targeted manner. This individual approach ensures that we respond optimally to your specific requirements and offer you a customized solution.
A complete overview of your IT and SAP landscape is essential. Together, we analyze your systems, identify blind spots and define KPIs to measure security. In this way, we ensure that your investments are targeted towards effective security measures.
A customized roadmap determines which security measures are implemented and in what order. We help you to set priorities and establish a sustainable security strategy that protects your SAP systems in the long term.
By using a Security Operations Center (SOC) with SIEM integration to Microsoft Sentinel, you receive round-the-clock monitoring as Managed Detection & Response (MDR). Arvato Systems evaluates security events, filters out false positives and responds to threats in a targeted manner - before security incidents occur.
SAP security is a continuous process. We regularly review your security measures, adapt your strategy to new threat situations and help you keep your SAP security up to date.
