Preventing vulnerabilities in HANA-based deployments

March 16, 2016 (at 11:30 a.m.) in SAP Security

Companies nowadays are choosing in between on-premise, cloud and hybrid deployment models. The common factor across all these scenarios is the underlying platform, used in the background to run all on-premise and cloud-based applications developed by SAP. This platform is called SAP HANA, which is an in-memory database and application server, that serves an increasing number of business applications, providing cutting edge features and performance.

Vulnerabilities affecting SAP HANA have now an increased attack surface, as these could be abused to compromise many diverse deployments and many customers, if the customers are not properly taking care of this risks.

Join us on this presentation to learn about diverse attack vectors affecting current SAP solutions, on-premise and cloud-based. You will not only learn technical details about these vulnerabilities, but also understand how to prevent and detect attacks to our crown jewels, running on HANA.
