Case Study: Building a Security Program for SAP: From IAM Architecture to Continuous Risk Reduction
Description

Organizations running SAP face a unique challenge: balancing business enablement with robust protection against insider threats, fraud, and external attacks. A modern security program for SAP requires more than just compliance—it demands an integrated architecture that unifies identity and access management, governance, risk, and compliance (GRC), and advanced threat monitoring.

This session will walk through a practical framework for building and maturing an SAP security program. We will explore how IAM architecture lays the foundation for access control, how SAP GRC Access Control (with UAR and risk analysis) supports continuous compliance, and how solutions like SecurityBridge provide real-time threat detection and vulnerability management. Attendees will gain insights into aligning these capabilities into a holistic program that strengthens resilience, improves audit readiness, and supports digital transformation without slowing the business.

Whether you’re just starting or advancing your SAP security journey, this session provides context how to build a security program that goes beyond compliance and delivers real risk reduction.

You’ll leave with a better understanding of how to:

  • Define an IAM architecture that integrates with SAP landscapes.
  • Leverage GRC AC for User Access Reviews and risk mitigation.
  • Extend your program with continuous monitoring and threat detection using SecurityBridge.
  • Build executive buy-in by aligning security outcomes with business priorities.
