SAP security for the intelligence enterprise falls into four categories: identity and access governance, data protection and privacy, cybersecurity, and enterprise risk and compliance. In the data protection and privacy area, SAP has implemented a wide range of measures to help protect data controlled by SAP and its customers. These measures include:
- Data Processing Agreements: SAP signs data processing agreements with its cloud services provider, which mirror the terms of SAP’s customer-facing data protection agreement and include standard contractual clauses (SCCs). SAP implements and maintains technical and organizational measures to adequately protect personal data.
- Data Transfer Impact Assessments: SAP publishes FAQs to support customers with questions related to data transfer impact assessments when they are using SAP Cloud services.
- Data Protection Management System: The SAP data protection management system uses SAP’s data protection controls framework for all internal data protection and privacy controls, which cover the requirements of international industry standards.
- Internal Data Protection: SAP regularly trains employees and ensures data protection compliance with regular audits on the business and legal entity levels.
