SAP Threat Modeling - Identify and Address Potential Security Risks Before they Become a Problem

SAP systems have unique characteristics and potential vulnerabilities that are distinctive to SAP technology. Learning to conduct threat modeling specifically for your landscape can significantly improve how you identify and prioritize threats and vulnerabilities and develop effective strategies to mitigate them. The course will help you better protect your organization from security incidents, reduce the impact of incidents that do occur, and meet compliance requirements. The group exercises are interactive, hands-on, and based on real-life examples, allowing participants to gain practical experience with SAP Security. It will cover modeling threats in a complex environment such as a hybrid SAP landscape consisting of SAP BTP applications, S/4HANA Solutions, or an on-premise SAP landscape consisting of legacy implementations. In addition, you will be immersed in the attacker’s and defender’s points of view. You will also gain insight into how potential attackers might approach your SAP system, what methods they might use to compromise it, then develop effective defensive strategies and controls to improve protection. To ensure that your threat modeling is effective and comprehensive, we will also highlight “best practices” for SAP threat modeling.
