Analyze and mitigate risks with SAP security monitoring

Protect Against Data Loss and Cybersecurity Breaches by Monitoring Active Directory Users

For every size of enterprise, staying aware of user access and permissions is key for keeping networks secure from data breaches. With better visibility into user permissions, IT admins can more quickly identify permission violations and segregate user duties as needed. IT teams can leverage SolarWinds^® Access Rights Manager (ARM) as a SAP permissions monitoring tool to help automatically identify SAP transaction codes and help IT admins analyze user access to SAP services and files. Additionally, ARM has built-in SAP scans that can be used to monitor rights structures from resource systems. The scan results are stored in a SQL database that users can easily access via the ARM interface, allowing the tool to function as a streamlined SAP SQL monitor.

Streamline control of user access management

Streamline and Optimize Management Tasks by Automating Regulatory AD Compliance Reports

With SolarWinds Access Rights Manager, IT teams can obtain more autonomy over how they assign and manage user access control in SAP systems. With the SAP integration, admins can discover authorization paths and even find multiple authorizations. ARM offers user provisioning and management for SAP, which you can use to deploy and manage new user accounts. Admins can also leverage ARM to see which Active Directory users are assigned to which SAP accounts. ARM even includes the ability to customize templates that can be used to provide role-specific access to users.

Additionally, ARM introduces access rights delegation based on the data owner, which means data owners themselves define SAP data categories across your organization, assign its functional owners, and manage related permissions. This portal can be accessed via the web on any device, including laptops, desktops, tablets, and smartphones.

Demonstrate compliance with the help of SAP monitoring tool capabilities

Users Account Management System Dashboard

To mitigate risks across the enterprise, admins should exercise compliance and regulation processes on a regular basis. When using ARM as a SAP permissions monitoring tool, users can more easily support system-wide compliance by scheduling reports for automated delivery. ARM also offers a report generation feature that allows users to customize and generate SAP reports to demonstrate compliance with a range of regulatory requirements, like PCI DSS and HIPAA. With this added flexibility, IT admins can generate reports that both satisfy auditors and improve internal enterprise user access management decisions.

Understand transaction codes and recognize authorization paths and multiple authorizations

SAP Security Monitoring in Access Rights Management

Today’s software landscapes rely on SAP for everything from CRM activities to HR operations. However, simply having a SAP system isn’t always enough, as administrators often struggle with understanding, monitoring, and managing transaction codes, roles, and authorizations. That’s where SAP monitoring tools come in.

SAP system monitoring tools like ARM allow organizations to visualize nested roles, identify authorization paths, and recognize multiple authorizations. ARM provides deep permission analysis and doesn’t require any target system configurations.

SAP monitoring is the practice of proactively monitoring application servers and computer utilization in an IT environment that runs SAP systems. Since many organizations use SAP, specifically the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software, SAP monitoring is a critical practice to help ensure network software is performing at or above the expected thresholds set by IT admins.

By monitoring SAP systems on a regular basis, you can identify important information about the health of your systems, servers, connections, and critical applications. In fact, monitoring SAP systems should be completed daily.

However, many SAP solutions utilize a three-tier client-server architecture. While this architecture is ideal for organizations that value scalability and flexibility, it can also make the monitoring process more difficult. Investing in an enterprise-grade SAP system monitoring tool can help improve the SAP monitoring process and streamline IT efforts.

A SAP transaction code, sometimes referred to as a “t-code”, is a series of letters and numbers that act as a shortcut key to access a desired SAP transaction. Users must enter a code into the SAP interface to access functions or run programs in SAP. Most transactions codes are generally four characters and can be entered directly into the transaction code field.
There are hundreds of thousands of SAP transaction codes. However, there are some commonly used transaction codes that are helpful to know:
VA01 - Create Sales Order
FS10N - Balance Display function
ME23N - Display Purchase Order function
F110 - Parameters for Automatic Payment function
Depending on the needs of your organization and individual departments, different transaction codes may be helpful.
As with all other IT systems, SAP systems require monitoring to ensure that they can operate continuously and efficiently. With SAP monitoring tools, admins can:
Identify, analyze, and mitigate risks: Such tools provide real-time visibility, allowing administrators to detect potential issues and take corrective action before they escalate into major problems. This minimizes disruptions and increases reliability.
Streamline user access management control: These tools offer granular insights into user activities and access privileges within the SAP environment, meaning admins can track user logins and data access patterns to better prevent unauthorized access.
Demonstrate compliance: Being ready for audits is vital for any organization — and an SAP security tool can help. These solutions will track and audit system activities, providing organizations with the data they need for compliance reporting.
Improve security: SAP system monitoring tools can also help boost your organization’s security. After all, you’ll be able to more easily detect and respond to unauthorized access, incorrect user privileges, suspicious user activities, and more.
Gain transaction code insights: Monitoring SAP with a dedicated tool can also help you gain a better understanding of transaction codes. Not only will you be able to monitor transaction codes with SAP monitoring software, but you can also manage them.
Recognize authorization paths and multiple authorizations: this solution can also provide admins with valuable information on authorizations. It can allow admins to easily visualize nested roles and authorization paths as well as recognize multiple authorizations.
Improve SAP infrastructure and performance: Ultimately, SAP tools can give you the insights you need to identify issues and even proactively resolve them, reducing disruptions and optimizing performance.
