GDPR: Keeping personal data under control, also in your SAP systems
Since the EU GDPR came into effect, companies are required to specifically protect, block, or delete personal data—not only in production but also in test systems. However, many SAP systems contain data accumulated over years, often without a clear overview of where sensitive information is located. The requirements are increasing, audit pressure is growing—and there is no one-size-fits-all solution.
If you want to handle personal data in compliance with the GDPR, you need transparency, clear rules, and the right technical implementation. This is exactly where we come in.
Our solution is based on SAP ILM (Information Lifecycle Management)—combined with proven best practices and, if desired, complementary tools for anonymization in test and sandbox systems. This way, you can ensure that personal data is handled correctly—and that your company stays compliant during audits.
GDPR Analysis & Implementation with SAP ILM
You receive a customized concept that guides you from identifying sensitive data to implementing a legally compliant blocking, deletion, or anonymization logic. Whether in the production system or specifically in test environments—we help you efficiently and sustainably meet GDPR requirements.
1. Analysis of your systems
We examine where personal data is stored in your SAP tables—including custom fields. We prioritize particularly critical areas and check whether your system meets the necessary requirements for SAP ILM (including ILM-enabled archives and possible interfaces such as webshops).
2. Workshop & Solution Design
In a joint workshop, we present the analysis results, demonstrate live how SAP ILM works, and discuss how you can control or anonymize sensitive data even in test environments.
3. Implementation with SAP ILM
Together, we create your individual ILM rule set, review relevant notes, and adapt ILM applications as needed. We also support you with topics such as authorizations, performance optimization, and the integration of your WebDAV interface.
