KuppingerCole is one of the top European analyst agencies with a strong focus on IAM and GRC markets. Recently, KuppingerCole’s analysts selected ERPScan’s SoD module for inclusion into their Leadership Compass about Access Control/Access Governance for SAP environments. Though this module was not designed as a stand-alone solution it was well positioned even when comparing with companies and solutions which Flagship products were selected. ERPScan’s SoD Module was included into the final list by following appropriate requirements and selected straight into Challengers position. This level identifies products which are not yet Leaders but have specific strengths which might make them Leaders. Typically, these products are also mature and might be leading-edge when looking at specific use cases and customer requirements.

The report provides an overview and analysis of the market for Access Control & Access Governance Solutions for SAP environments.

The Leadership Compass about AccessControl/Access Governance for SAP environments provides decision makers with a compass to help them to find the Governance solution for SAP that best meets the needs of their company.
"ERPScan, with its in-depth, read-only analysis that goes far beyond access control and governance by providing in-depth vulnerability and configuration management and source code security scanning is an interesting alternative for customers with the appropriate use case scenario or as an additional component for an existing access governance solution." - Martin Kuppinger, KuppingerCole
Among the advantages, KuppingerCole’s analysts noted the following:
- Unique, complete SAP security solution;
- Highly configurable for various scans and continuous monitoring scenarios;
- Comprehensive landscape scanning and visualization features;
- Strong features for statistics and trends, every deployment scenario evaluation;
- Audit-ready logging and scheduled reporting capabilities.
“We got good feedback on our SoD module, even in comparison with competitors who specialize in this area, but I agree with KuppingerCole’s analysts that our tool should be seen as a complementary solution to existing GRC tools. Our primary advantages are the Vulnerability Management and Code Scanning modules and the unique advanced correlation functionality which can add information from the SoD module to the general picture, unlike any stand-alone SoD or VM solution. While our technology cannot give you the advantage of prevention that other tools provide, it’s much easier to use for consulting companies, who already benefit from using ERPScan because it doesn’t require implementing any agents in SAP systems. To help companies use our solution as a complementary tool to SAP GRC, we have ensured seamless integration” - Alexander Polyakov, CTO, ERPScan
The detailed report also describes that ERPScan got Positive ratings in the Security area for overall secure architecture of its product as well as in the Interoperability area for integration with external solutions such including GRC, ITSM, SIEM, and IDS systems from SAP and non-SAP.
