Businesses are embracing the benefits of Microsoft and SAP solutions to propel their operations to new heights.
However, ensuring a robust and continuously improving security framework across these crucial services has remained a challenging feat — until now.
We are thrilled to launch our innovative Microsoft Sentinel SAP Connector Optimisation Service, a game-changing solution that transforms the way you perceive and manage security within your organisation.
A seamless integration of powerhouses
Microsoft understands the complex needs of businesses relying on both its innovative technologies and SAP’s mission-critical applications.
The result? The Microsoft Sentinel solution for SAP® applications, an innovative step forward in connecting, ingesting, visualising, protecting, and automating the security logs of your platform and SAP applications.
This enables businesses to proactively safeguard their assets by comprehensively understanding, monitoring, detecting, and responding to security incidents.
Unlocking centralised security excellence
The need for centralised security visibility and detection of data breaches, security incidents, and alerts within SAP systems, managing sensitive business-critical data, has been a long-standing puzzle for SAP customers.
Enter the Sentinel connector to SAP, a new solution that enables continuous threat monitoring across networks, operating systems, interfaces, databases, applications, and business processes.
Let’s delve into the myriad of benefits this cutting-edge service brings to the table:
🌐 Centralised Visibility: Our service presents security teams with the ability to correlate and normalise SAP signals across diverse environments.
🚀 Threat Intelligence Leveraging: We leverage threat intelligence, enrichment, and context to build continually improving detection and response mechanisms.

Elevating security to new heights
While Microsoft Sentinel brings remarkable security content, our CloudGuard experts recommend enhancing the system with SAP-specific watchlists, detection rules, and response playbooks.
We meticulously verify that Sentinel effectively monitors the PAHI table and all related cloud resources, and we provide adept insights to optimise log ingestion costs.
Our dedicated service ensures ingested logs align with your business processes, driving improved security posture in centralised monitoring.
How this benefits your organisation
With the goal of achieving centralisation, CloudGuard has developed advanced automation that seamlessly integrates and optimises security logs from SAP’s critical business processes, platforms, applications, databases, and cloud services into the SIEM.
This innovative process ensures data is refined and prepared before being ingested into the workspace.
The common problem is that SAP security logs can be extensive and therefore, without governance and optimisation, expensive in Microsoft Log Analytics. Further use cases must also be built to both accelerate automation and detection correlation across disparate systems in the SAP business fabric.
As every SAP customer landscape can be different, we’ll actively work with you to understand the security visualisations you need, supported by corresponding use cases and automation.
We then align this to security ROI through cost optimisation. Our team of Sentinel experts help to maximise the benefits of Microsoft Sentinel with SAP into a unified security solution this enhances cyber security posture for your business.
