Key Takeaways
⇨ SAP systems are critical to large enterprises but pose significant security challenges due to their complexity, requiring robust authentication, authorization practices, and continuous monitoring to protect sensitive data from cyber threats.
⇨ Real-time security monitoring and threat detection are essential for identifying and addressing risks before they escalate, ensuring compliance with industry regulations, and optimizing resource efficiency within organizations.
⇨ Xiting's SIEM Cockpit solution enhances SAP security by providing comprehensive monitoring of connected systems, enabling early detection of attack patterns, and integrating smoothly with existing security infrastructures to bolster overall cybersecurity efforts.
SAP systems are the backbone of many large enterprises but are inherently complex environments. As such, on the one hand, while they are prime targets for cyber-attacks, their security is also difficult when it comes to implementing and maintaining controls. Ensuring the security of SAP data is crucial, with strict compliance to privacy regulations and security measures. SAP security involves protecting data in SAP systems from unauthorized access and cyber risks which need practices like a robust authentication and authorization practices, continuous monitoring, external access management, data protection, and audits to identify and address vulnerabilities. From centralized user access management, cloud-based user authentication and provisioning, security updates and patches, securing SAP systems requires much more.
Continuous and real-time security and monitoring and threat detection is crucial for keeping business’s IT systems healthy and secure. It helps prevent small issues from becoming big problems and ensures you comply with industry regulations. By constantly monitoring systems, businesses can quickly identify and address risks using real-time information, which strengthens your overall security.
Real-time monitoring enables organizations to assess their network, systems, and applications and how they are performing and allows them to identify problems or threats before they cause any disruptions. This means that organizations can optimize resources, cut costs, and work more efficiently.
Xiting offers holistic security monitoring with its innovative tools like the Security Information Event Management (SIEM) Cockpit solution that can establish SAP Security Monitoring & Threat Detection solution that monitors connected SAP satellite systems and HANA databases for security events and threats.
Because cyber-attacks often spread from one application to others, the SAP Security Monitoring & Threat Detection system with the SIEM Cockpit can be easily added to a general SIEM system. This helps us detect attack patterns across different applications early, combine efforts, and take quick action. The SIEM Cockpit allows us to monitor even large SAP systems for threats in real time, making it a key part of building a complete security monitoring strategy and cybersecurity framework. Xiting’s centralized security monitoring solution also helps organizations to better protect SAP systems against internal and external threats and mitigate common vulnerabilities. Xiting also offers real-time log analysis services with over 50 ready-made and adjustable attack detection patterns.
