Throughout the world, high-profile large organizations (aerospace
and defense, automotive, banking, chemicals, financial service
providers, healthcare, high tech, insurance, oil and gas,
pharmaceuticals, retail, telecommunications, and utilities) and
governments are using SAP software to process their most
mission-critical, highly sensitive data. With more than 100,000
installations, SAP is the world's largest enterprise software
company and the world's third largest independent software supplier
overall.
Despite this widespread use, there have been very few books written
on SAP implementation and security, despite a great deal of
interest. (There are 220,000 members in an on-line SAP 'community'
seeking information, ideas and tools on the IT Toolbox Website
alone.) Managing SAP user authentication and authorizations is
becoming more complex than ever, as there are more and more SAP
products involved that have very different access issues. It's a
complex area that requires focused expertise.
This book is designed for these network and systems administrator
who deal with the complexity of having to make judgmental decisions
regarding enormously complicated and technical data in the SAP
landscape, as well as pay attention to new compliance rules and
security regulations.
Most SAP users experience significant challenges when trying to
manage and mitigate the risks in existing or new security solutions
and usually end up facing repetitive, expensive re-work and
perpetuated compliance challenges. This book is designed to help
them properly and efficiently manage these challenges on an ongoing
basis. It aims to remove the 'Black Box' mystique that surrounds
SAP security.

* This book contains information about SAP security that is not
available anywhere else to help the reader avoid the "gotchas" that
may leave them vulnerable during times of upgrade or other system
changes
*Companion Web site provides custom SAP scripts, which readers can
download to install, configure and troubleshoot SAP.
