SecurityBridge’s SAP Platform Helps Schneider Electric Secure Their Critical SAP Applications And Integrate With SIEM

Schneider Electric SAP

Ingolstadt, Germany, July 13, 2022 SAP security provider SecurityBridge—now operating in the U.S.—today announced Schneider Electric has selected the company’s SAP Security platform. SecurityBridge’s platform provides Schneider Electric with an advanced level of SAP visibility that enables the company’s IT teams to proactively manage potential risks arising from applications and custom code.

SecurityBridge’s SAP platform provides holistic insight into SAP’s complexity with real-time threat monitoring. This SAP security approach differs from traditional solutions by providing a preventative, behavioral-based approach for:

  • Detecting Anomalies
  • Identifying Security Risks
  • Mitigating Risks to Business Operations
  • Ensuring Compliance with Regulatory Mandates
  • Creating an Inclusive Cybersecurity Posture

“SecurityBridge helped us automate our SAP application monitoring and vulnerability by easily integrating with our SIEM platform. By doing this, we boosted security, lowered costs, and allowed our security team to focus on remediation,” said Thierry Eyraud, Digital Risk Leader, Schneider Electric.

SecurityBridge’s continuous SAP security management process accelerates and prioritizes risk management with intelligence-driven and accelerated remediation processes through a two-step approach that:

  1. Identifies cybersecurity tools targeting the SAP application layer and custom code while integrating the solution with the SIEM platform 
  2. Evaluates solutions for robustness while covering forensics, internal and external threats, Data Loss Prevention (DLP), and ease of integration and maintenance. 

The SAP platform also provides Schneider Electric with a single-pane-of-glass on the SAP security posture that covers multiple geographical regions with their local SAP installations. In addition, high-privileged access roles were reduced to a minimum, and the company’s security department received real-time policy break alerts.

“SecurityBridge is a true partner, and we count on this platform to alert us on critical vulnerabilities while automating SAP risk management practices,” said Tony Parrillo, Global Head of Cybersecurity, Schneider Electric. “Our teams now communicate more effectively; SecurityBridge has become essential to our overall cybersecurity strategy.”

“Without complete visibility into the system and a continued patching process, SAP can be particularly vulnerable to internal and external cybersecurity threats,” said Christoph Nagy, CEO, SecurityBridge. “We are proud to help Schneider Electric enhance the resiliency and stability of their business operations.”

SAP security by design
Security-by-design is a principle that emphasizes the need to build security measures into software systems from the start rather than as an afterthought. SAP projects need to embed security conciseness to respect this principle and gain a cyber-resilient application. Thus, they should prioritize security when designing and implementing their SAP systems rather than attempting to bolt on security measures afterward. This can help to prevent security breaches and minimize the damage caused by cyberattacks.
