SAP Identity Lifecycle Management

EmpowerID's SAP Identity Lifecycle solution streamlines account provisioning and access assignment through automation. By implementing policy-based "Compliant Access," security issues and human errors related to manual user creation and role and profile assignment in SAP are eliminated. Lifecycle events can be initiated manually via workflows or more commonly detected through changes from any HR system, including SuccessFactors. EmpowerID manages provisioning and deprovisioning throughout your entire SAP environment, with policy settings enabling a smooth transition of responsibilities and data ownership during deprovisioning.

SAP Zero Trust Delegated Administration

Organizations pursuing a Zero Trust strategy face challenges due to the varying roles and security models across traditional ABAP-based systems, SAP HANA, and other SAP modules. A fundamental principle of Zero Trust is to avoid granting permanent unproxied access to systems, as it is difficult to monitor and poses a risk for potential attacks. EmpowerID supports a Zero Trust approach by implementing a unified security model across all SAP systems, allowing organizations to delegate granular administrative privileges to specific business units or partner organizations, even when such granularity is not supported in some SAP modules. This fine-grained delegation caters to complex global organizations and multi-tenancy scenarios, controlling access to objects and identities and task execution without granting native administrative privileges.

SAP Firefighter and Emergency Access Management

EmpowerID enhances SAP's Zero Trust strategy with industry-leading firefighter management capabilities for S/4HANA. Users can request temporary firefighter emergency access, which is granted to their existing SAP accounts. Requests can be pre-approved or routed for approval, with status tracking provided through a user-friendly interface. This method simplifies privileged account password management and improves user activity correlation.

SAP Role Design and Optimization

EmpowerID serves as a vital tool in establishing and maintaining compliant access within your SAP landscape. It integrates SAP role and fine-grained TCode level access with organizational data from HR and IGA to determine position-appropriate access for employees, partners, and customers, along with risk policies that ensure ongoing compliance. EmpowerID's role optimization functionality aids in managing SAP roles, guaranteeing optimal least privilege access in dynamic business environments affected by re-organizations, mergers, and acquisitions. Moreover, EmpowerID conducts SOD simulations during role design to verify that proposed roles have no inherent SOD conflicts.

SAP Compliant Risk Management

Organizations strive to efficiently provide Compliant Access that aligns with position requirements and adheres to business policies concerning risk. Compliant Access bolsters a Zero Trust strategy by incorporating risk policies to assess if the least privilege level would result in unacceptable risks. Identifying such cases enables risk control owners to make informed decisions on whether to accept the risk and apply mitigating controls or reject them. EmpowerID's risk engine supports both preventive and detective SOD simulation and validation through user-friendly dashboards and workflow processes that automate remediation and revocation.
