Protecting your SAP landscape

Cyber-attacks are among the biggest challenges facing any business operating today. Ensuring you have the right approach to managing this evolving threat is vital to your organisation’s success and, ultimately, its survival.

A SAP S/4HANA transformation is a modernising transition that impacts the whole enterprise. It’s a chance to deliver new efficiencies and value opportunities – and build a more resilient business by supercharging security automation processes. With the right planning, organisations can pinpoint their current vulnerabilities and remove technical debt as they migrate.

KPMG professionals are trusted by organisations operating in different sectors across the globe. KPMG firms have been recognised as leaders in cybersecurity consulting and KPMG SAP-certified consultants are positioned to help businesses secure and protect their systems.

KPMG professionals meticulously scrutinise and examine all operational facets and supplement off-the-shelf processes with enhanced practices that address your organisation’s specific needs and concerns.

Many SAP S/4HANA transformations can result in a hybrid operating model, which leaves some systems on-premises while others move to the cloud. These complexities can create new areas for cyber-attackers to exploit. This KPMG white paper pinpoints those vulnerabilities and is a starting point on your journey to a secure, successful – and transformed business. This cybersecurity white paper explores ways to better protect your organisation from cyber threats.
