Managing Risk in the Cloud with Global Apparel Manufacturer Gains Visibility and Threat Intelligence for SAP HEC
Key Takeaways
⇨ The apparel manufacturer needed to ensure the security and performance of their new SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud (HEC) instance, crucial for their global supply chain operations.
⇨ Onapsis provided the necessary visibility into the SAP HEC environment, offering continuous monitoring for vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and threats, which was essential for maintaining security standards.
⇨ The solution enabled proactive risk management and minimized business disruptions, ensuring the security and integrity of the manufacturer’s supply chain and overall business operations.
A large international apparel manufacturer running multiple independent, in-house SAP systems around the world wanted to implement an additional system to cover new geographical regions, but this time running on the SAP HANA Enterprise Cloud (HEC). The business relies on these systems to run their supply chain and manufacturing processes, so
ensuring performance, availability and security of the new system was critical.
While moving to SAP HEC would bring processing, analytics and performance improvements, having an SAP instance outside of their data centers for the first time, along with the shared security nature of cloud implementations, raised major concerns for the project. In order for the implementation to succeed, the manufacturer needed visibility into the
SAP HEC operating environment so they could manage risk and verify that their new system was secured in line with their existing standards.
We knew moving our sap instance to a cloud environment would introduce new risks and we needed a solution to support the shared security model. Only Onapsis provides visibility into the sap hec operational environment so we can ‘trust, but verify’ that our system is secured to our standards. We can now continually monitor risk, ensure the integrity and security of our supply chain and protect our business.
