Client Challenges We Solve

Where BTP security consistently gets missed or misunderstood.

01
Shared Responsibility Misconception
SAP manages infrastructure only. Application-level BTP security is entirely the customer's responsibility.
02
Insecure Default Configurations
Out-of-the-box BTP settings are not production-ready. Configuration gaps create exploitable security exposure.
03
Identity Sprawl Across Services
Multiple identity providers, tenants, and user types without a unified access governance model.
04
Principal Propagation Failures
Broken identity chains between BTP and backend systems create access gaps and audit risk.
05
Regulatory Exposure at Cloud Layer
BTP hosts sensitive integrations. Without proper controls, SOX and GDPR compliance is at risk.
06
No Visibility into BTP Access
Without access logging and review processes, over-privileged BTP users remain undetected indefinitely.
