Your SAP system landscape keeps you safe and up-to-date by inserting different types of SAP hints and patches. For a first overview of the security information for SAP systems, see the SAP Service Marketplace at https://service.sap.com/securitynotes. For a complete list of all security advisories for all SAP solutions (SAP NetWeaver Application Server ABAP and Java, TREX, SAP HANA, Sybase, SAP GUI, etc.), see Security Notes Search on this page. The My Security Notes page allows you to find the SAP notes that are relevant for systems registered in SAP Service Marketplace. This does not take into account information already recorded.
When configuring the Security Audit Log, you must consider the storage of the files. At least one separate file is created for each day. When the maximum size of all files for the tag is reached, additional events are stopped. So you should always adjust the maximum size of the file to your needs using the parameters rsau/max_diskspace/per_file and rsau/max_diskspace/per_day. The rsau/max_diskspace/local parameter is obsolete in this case, but remains active if the other two parameters are not maintained.
SAP S/4HANA: Analysis and simple adjustment of your authorizations
If you have an older SAP NetWeaver release than 7.00 installed, only two possible values for the customising switch BNAME_RESTRICT are available after the implementation of SAP Note 1731549. The switch is NO, and you can switch it to ALL, so that the switch takes on the same functionality as in the higher releases.
Finally, you must evaluate and implement the results of the preparatory work. The overview allows you to determine which user needs which function groups or function blocks and to set up the permission roles accordingly. You can exclude calls to Destination NONE from your evaluation because these calls are always internal calls to RFC function blocks. In this context, we recommend that you check the mappings for critical function blocks or functional groups.
"Shortcut for SAP systems" is a tool that enables the assignment of authorizations even if the IdM system fails.
The online course covers the following topics: - Introduction to the course - Why are SAP authorizations actually important? - How do SAP authorizations work technically? - Developing and maintaining roles - SAP Fiori authorizations/tile authorizations in S/4HANA - Developing authorization checks.
You can also find some useful tips from practice on the subject of SAP authorizations on the page www.sap-corner.de.
Many of the authorisation concepts we found in customers were not suitable to meet the requirements.
