SAP Zero Trust Delegated Administration

In the realm of Zero Trust security, organizations often encounter challenges with the diverse roles and security models present in traditional ABAP-based systems, SAP HANA, and other various SAP modules which presents a challenge for organization’s pursuing a Zero Trust strategy. One of the key tenants of the Zero Trust model is that users should not be granted permanent Zero Trust principles emphasize avoiding permanent, unproxied access to systems . Unproxied access cannot be easily monitored and permanent privileged access is an opening waiting to be compromised by an attacker. EmpowerID’s supports a Zero Trust strategy by overlaying a single unified security model on top of all your to minimize monitoring challenges and attack risks. EmpowerID addresses these challenges by implementing a unified security model across all SAP systems. This allows approach enables organizations to delegate granular administrative privileges to users within specific in a granular manner, suitable for business units or partner organizations even though this . This granularity is not supported in some SAP modules. Fine-grained delegations support even the most particularly beneficial in complex global organizations and multi-tenancy scenarios to control exactly who may see which objects and identities and who may perform which tasks, all without granting any native administrative privileges, allowing for controlled access to objects, identities, and task execution without assigning full administrative rights, even in SAP modules that traditionally do not support such detailed access control.

SAP Compliant Risk Management

The goal of any organization is to efficiently deliver Compliant Access which is “position appropriate” and adheres to an organization’s “business policies” concerning risk. Compliant Access enhances an organization’s Zero Trust strategy by adding risk policies into the equation to determine if least privilege ‘level’ would produce unacceptable risks. Identifying such cases allows an organization’s In the pursuit of providing Compliant Access, organizations aim to align access privileges with position requirements while adhering to business risk policies. Compliant Access, underpinned by a Zero Trust framework, involves using risk policies to evaluate if granting the least privilege level might lead to unacceptable risks. This evaluation allows risk control owners to make informed decisions whether to accept risk and apply about accepting risks with mitigating controls or to reject rejecting them outright. EmpowerID’s EmpowerID's risk management engine supports both preventive and detective measures for SOD simulation and validation with . It offers user-friendly dashboards and workflow processes to that automate the remediation and revocation of access, thereby ensuring ongoing compliance and security.
