Why Go Beyond Native SAP Database Security
- SAP HANA delivers important database protections including authentication, role-based access, encryption, and auditing to support secure real-time operations across on-prem and cloud environments.
- As SAP landscapes span on-prem, private, and public clouds, advanced threats and compliance needs often require stronger controls than native features alone can provide.
- Centralized key management and advanced encryption extend SAP HANA’s capabilities, enabling better separation of duties and simplified compliance in complex enterprise environments.
