SAP Data Encryption & Tokenization Solutions

Tokenize data and control access in SAP S/4HANA and SAP ECC

Thales and SAP have established a co-innovation partnership to provide an integrated data protection solution for SAP S/4HANA and SAP ECC. Thales CipherTrust Tokenization is the first SAP-certified tokenization solution available to SAP customers that can be used to secure sensitive data.

Thales' CipherTrust Tokenization in the SAP Data Custodian was developed by both organizations through SAP's Co-Innovation Lab, ensuring the security of sensitive data at the most fundamental levels of the application.  

With this joint solution, SAP customers can choose to tokenize specific fields and assign access policies that determine which users have access to sensitive data.

Key features and benefits:

• Schrems II alignment by masking protected data from CSPs, outsourced contractors, developers, and internal privileged access users
• Go live with sensitive data in production deployments within days rather than in months
• Access controls ensure only authorized users or applications can view tokenized data
• Thales CipherTrust Manager provides root-of-trust key protection to help attain FIPS 140-2 Level 3 regulatory requirements
• Co-innovation certification ensures seamless integration and performance

External key management for SAP applications

Thales and SAP now offer external, multi-cloud key lifecycle management for SAP applications. With the integration between SAP’s Data Custodian and the Thales CipherTrust Cloud Key Manager, organizations can seamlessly manage the encryption key life cycle of SAP applications from the same pane of glass as their other cloud encryption implementations. 

By adding CipherTrust Cloud Key Manager, highly regulated customers can externally root their encryption keys in in support of Bring Your Own Keys (BYOK) data security policies.

Key features and benefits:

• Generate encryption keys with HSM-based entropy and bring them to your SAP applications
• Improve IT efficiency with centralized key lifecycle management across multiple cloud environments
• Comply with the most stringent data protection and sovereignty mandates with encryption and key management
• Simplified compliance reporting with detailed audit logs and prepackaged reports
• Root keys in up to FIPS 140-2 Level 3 security by leveraging CipherTrust Manager or Thales Luna HSMs
