SECUDE’s signature event at Hochschule Informatik, Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts on Thursday, 14th March 2019, provided an opportunity of collaborative learning and networking. The event was supported by Microsoft and Keyon AG. Here is a brief narrative of what transpired.

HALOCORE 5.1 is based on new, powerful rules and configuration templates (available for SAP solutions for financial and HR functions) to easily meet classification and reaction requirements, even in complex use cases. The new engine also provides the foundation for forthcoming automation initiatives that incorporate machine learning concepts.

Through this brief post, Philipp Meier, Vice President (Research & Development) shares his thought on the values of industry-university connect after the recently inaugurated bachelors programme in Information and Cyber Security.

“HALOCORE provides effective classification and protection of sensitive data by controlling SAP exports and encrypting extracted documents… Deploying HALOCORE at Microsoft helps us keep our company more secure and compliant,” says Shalini Gupta, Principal Privacy Lead at Microsoft.

Outsider threats, while still an important consideration in cyber security, account for only 40% of malicious attacks on your system while 60% potentially come from trusted insiders. Here are 4 important steps to keep in mind.

SAP customers are concerned about identification of data in the SAP system, their pseudonymisation in copies of the production system, and timely information, blocking and finally deletion of user data. This is what users should keep in mind.

HALOCORE® extends the SAP access control shield for IP, PII and even Toxic Data and other sensitive data beyond an SAP enterprise application’s boundary. HALOCORE intercepts the data being downloaded from SAP and applies fully customizable classification labels to the document metadata.

SECUDE has come to learn a sad fact. Those responsible for the safety and security of their companies data (IP) often fail to comprehend a serious risk that stares at them straight in the face – malicious insiders. There are media articles galore on this danger, but not many seem to learn the lesson.

SECUDE will participate at SAPPHIRE NOW® and ASUG Annual Conference being held June 5–7 in Orlando, Florida. SECUDE’s booth will also have a key representative from Microsoft to showcase how HALOCORE controls and protects data exports from SAP applications with Microsoft AIP.

Information, such as pricing, inventory management and consumption-based planning, that is included in SAP Material Management need to be protected. Often access to such complex and sensitive material data is unregulated based on the quoting procedures and exports of such information are frequent.
