The Challenges
SAP systems are high-value targets for cyberattacks, as they manage business-critical processes and face increasing cyber threats. At the same time, organizations must comply with complex legal and industry-specific requirements such as GDPR and ISO 27001.
The high complexity of hybrid SAP environments—comprising both cloud and on-premise systems—demands differentiated and coordinated security strategies. A lack of transparency, standardized processes, KPIs, and patch management often results in undetected vulnerabilities.
Furthermore, many organizations lack internal resources or the necessary expertise to effectively implement SAP security requirements.
An underdeveloped security culture and insufficient cross-functional coordination make it even harder to establish a holistic security strategy. Additionally, the “security by default” approach has only recently become a consistent practice, leaving many systems still insufficiently protected.
Protect Your Systems with a Holistic SAP Security Approach
These challenges make a comprehensive security strategy essential. We rely on a structured security framework based on the NIST Framework, the SAPSecure Operational MAP, and your SAP ecosystem.
This framework offers an end-to-end approach to identify, protect, detect, respond to, and recover from security incidents—ensuring full transparency and control over your SAP security landscape.
Holistic SAP Security Approach with itesys
Webinar (in German) | Mai 21st 2025, 10 am MEZ | 30 minutes
Cybersecurity remains a top priority in IT – and SAP systems are at the heart of it. Companies are increasingly aware of the need to professionalize their SAP security but struggle with limited resources, lack of transparency, and balancing CISO requirements with SAP operations. On top of that, meeting regulatory requirements (KRITIS, NIS2, DORA) poses an additional challenge.
No half measures: Learn how to take a holistic approach to SAP security with itesys – and gain control over risks, roles, and resources.
