The Cloud’s Potential: Your SAP Security, Our Expertise

The Cloud Security Conundrum

If you’ve considered moving your SAP workload to the cloud but have been worried about security, you’re not alone. Cloud security might be the largest obstacle in your migration journey, often due to a trust deficit or a lack of understanding regarding the security of cloud environments. However, at ETZ Global, we possess the requisite expertise in both SAP application security and AWS infrastructure to ensure your concerns are addressed comprehensively. We are here to transform your cloud security apprehensions into confidence.

Fortified Foundations with AWS Infrastructure

  • Access Control Like Never Before: As a customer, you typically wouldn’t need direct access to AWS infrastructure since we manage all aspects at that level. We expertly handle AWS IAM, enforcing least privilege principles for even our own access, ensuring that only authorized personnel can unlock your infrastructure’s doors. No more, no less.
  • Network Security with a Twist: Eliminate the complexities of VPNs with our innovative approach. We utilize AWS Elastic Load Balancers and the SAP Secure Network Client, as detailed in our guide on Secure Gui Access to SAP without a VPN. This ensures your network is segmented, secure, and accessible without the VPN hassle.
  • Data Replication for Peace of Mind: By replicating databases across different AWS Availability Zones, we guarantee your data’s availability under any circumstance. Coupled with AWS backup agents that perform backups to S3 and replicate them to alternate regions, your SAP HANA database isn’t just secure; it’s resilient.
  • Bulletproof Backups with CPM: For managing snapshots and AMIs, we employ Cloud Protection Manager (CPM). Cross-region replication means your data isn’t merely backed up; it’s safeguarded globally.
  • Enhanced Monitoring with AWS CloudWatch: We leverage AWS CloudWatch for real-time monitoring of your AWS resources and applications. This integration provides detailed insights into system performance, operational health, and security metrics, ensuring proactive management and swift response to any irregularities.

SAP Application: Secure by Design

  • User Permissions with Precision: We customize SAP’s role-based access controls to perfectly fit your organization, ensuring users have precisely what they need – no more, no less. Explore more at ETZ Global.
  • Single Sign-On That Simplifies: Experience seamless access to Fiori and Web GUI through SSO over HTTPS, integrated with your Identity Provider (IDP). For further details, see: How to SSO with Fiori Launchpad and Google G Suite.  
  • Encryption That Protects: Your SAP data is not only encrypted but secured with SAP HANA’s encryption capabilities, ensuring confidentiality from the outset.
  • Vulnerability? Not on Our Watch: Our proactive patching strategy keeps your SAP applications ahead of potential threats.
  • SAP ALM for Lifecycle Management: With SAP ALM, we manage the entire lifecycle of your SAP applications, from requirement gathering to maintenance, ensuring that security considerations are integral at every step. This includes tracking changes, managing test cycles, and ensuring compliance.

Monitoring and Response: Always Vigilant

  • Proactive with SAP Solution Manager and SAP ALM: We go beyond mere monitoring; we anticipate issues. With SAP Solution Manager and SAP ALM, we manage the entire application lifecycle, ensuring that monitoring is integrated into every phase from development to operation. Alerts are configured for any anomaly, facilitating a rapid response to maintain smooth operations.
  • Enhanced Monitoring with AWS CloudWatch: Alongside SAP tools, we leverage AWS CloudWatch for real-time monitoring of your AWS resources and applications. This provides detailed insights into system performance, operational health, and security metrics, allowing us to react proactively to any irregularities.
  • Incident Response Tailored to You: Each security incident is addressed with a response plan as unique as your business, minimizing impact and downtime. The combined power of SAP ALM’s lifecycle management and CloudWatch’s monitoring capabilities ensures that we have a comprehensive overview of your environment, enabling swift and effective incident response.
  • Integrated Monitoring: By integrating SAP ALM with AWS CloudWatch, we achieve a holistic view of your environment. This synergy not only enhances our ability to detect security and performance issues but also streamlines the process of managing and resolving these issues, ensuring your SAP systems remain secure and performance.
