Curriculum

Introduction

This introductory section sets the stage for your journey into SAP Cyber Security. It provides a comprehensive overview of the course structure, learning objectives, and the critical importance of securing SAP systems in today's threat landscape, ensuring you start with a clear understanding of what to expect.

Vulnerability Management

Delve into the core principles of vulnerability management tailored specifically for SAP environments. This section offers a detailed overview of identifying, assessing, and prioritizing security weaknesses, with a particular focus on effectively utilizing and implementing SAP Security Notes to patch and mitigate known vulnerabilities across your systems.

Threat Detection

Explore essential threat detection concepts applicable to any IT landscape, then transition into their specific application within SAP. You'll gain an in-depth understanding of SAP Enterprise Threat Detection (SAP ETD), a powerful tool for real-time monitoring and analysis, culminating in a practical demonstration of its capabilities to detect and respond to security incidents.

Secure Architecture

This module focuses on the fundamental principles of designing and implementing secure SAP architectures. Learn how to structure your SAP landscape from the ground up or re-evaluate existing setups to meet rigorous security standards, ensuring resilience against potential attacks and compliance with enterprise policies.

Passwords and Password Hashes

Uncover the critical role of robust password security in SAP. This section covers best practices for password complexity and policy enforcement, a deep dive into how password hashes work, specifically within SAP, and hands-on exercises to identify, recover (using tools like HashCat), troubleshoot, and ultimately clean up weak password hashes to fortify user authentication.

RFC security

Master the complexities of Remote Function Call (RFC) security. This module explores the RFC Gateway architecture, the intricacies of the RFC protocol, and practical implications of RFC SDK. You'll learn about different RFC types, securing OS commands via RFC, managing registered programs with REGINFO, handling registered servers, and understanding RFC callback mechanisms through detailed hands-on sessions.

Security Logs

Discover how to effectively configure and analyze critical security logs within SAP. This section provides in-depth instruction on the SAP Security Audit Log (SAL) with practical, two-part hands-on exercises, explains table change logging with further practical demonstrations, and details the importance and configuration of ICM and RFC Gateway logs for comprehensive system monitoring and incident forensics.

WebDispatcher

Learn to secure your SAP Web Dispatcher, a crucial component for web-based access. This module covers its architecture, how to interpret its logs, and best practices for managing its web administration interface. Hands-on sessions guide you through securing public pages, disabling unnecessary access, and implementing robust user management to prevent unauthorized entry.

SAP GUI

Address the security aspects of the SAP GUI. This section delves into the potential risks associated with SAP GUI scripting and provides essential guidelines and configurations to enhance overall SAP GUI security, protecting client-side interactions with your SAP systems.

Remote Enabled FMs and UCON

Gain mastery over securing Remote Enabled Function Modules (FMs) and implementing the Unified Connectivity (UCON) framework. This module provides a thorough overview of Remote Enabled FMs, detailed insights into UCON for RFC scenarios, its practical implementation, and how authorizations play a role. Extensive hands-on exercises demonstrate UCON configuration and highlight the significant risks associated with system users having SAP_ALL profiles.

SAP Process Orchestration

Conclude your learning by understanding specific security considerations for SAP Process Orchestration (PO). This module focuses on the unique challenges and best practices for securing integration scenarios and processes managed by SAP PO, ensuring end-to-end security for your complex business workflows.
