Perform static code analysis using an SAP-certified solution to remove vulnerabilities in custom SAP programs.
Code Vulnerability Management is the cornerstone of a robust SAP security strategy. While standard SAP software adheres to rigorous security gates, custom-developed ABAP programs and SAPUI5 applications often fall short of these standards, creating dangerous entry points for attackers.
Layer Seven Security perform comprehensive Static Code Analysis (SCA) to identify and remove flaws in custom SAP programs. By aligning custom developments with SAP programming guidelines, we significantly reduce the attack surface and ensure the integrity of mission-critical business processes.
SAP demonstrates a high level of commitment to delivering secure software, but that security ends where your custom development begins. Custom applications frequently fall short of SAP security benchmarks, leaving systems vulnerable to exploits targeting programming flaws.
Data shows that 65% of SAP platforms experience security breaches, often triggered by weaknesses in custom objects.
Insecure custom code allows for devastating attacks, including:
Layer Seven Security perform deep-dive reviews of both internally developed and third-party delivered code for SAP solutions to ensure your developments are not vulnerable to dangerous exploits.
We detect:
Identification of backdoors, rootkits, and hardcoded users.
Detection of missing or broken authorization checks.
Comprehensive scanning for SQL injection, code injection, cross-site scripting, directory traversal, and session hijacking.
We work closely with customers to implement secure development procedures that align with best practices and official SAP programming guidelines.
Automated analysis to identify vulnerabilities early and enforce consistent standards for secure development.
We identify and remove unused or redundant code. This ensures resources are not wasted securing objects that do not serve business needs, minimizing your potential attack surface.
This proactive approach significantly reduces remediation efforts, enabling you to secure your custom programs sooner and at a lower cost.
Code vulnerability analysis reduces the risk of exploitable weaknesses in mission-critical SAP applications, supports secure migrations to S/4HANA, aligns development standards to SAP benchmarks, and builds audit readiness.
Remove exploitable vulnerabilities in SAP systems arising from insecure coding.
Secure legacy code before conversion.
Align custom code quality to SAP development standards.
Assess custom code against the Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) framework.
Code vulnerability analysis reduces the risk of exploitable weaknesses in mission-critical SAP applications by identifying insecure coding patterns, missing authorization checks, injection risks, cross-site scripting, directory traversal, and other vulnerabilities before they can be abused in production. It also supports secure migrations to S/4HANA by helping organizations identify and remediate legacy security issues in custom ABAP and SAPUI5 code before they are carried into the new environment, while aligning development practices with SAP security benchmarks and secure coding standards. In addition, it strengthens audit readiness and confidence by providing a more consistent, measurable, and repeatable approach to reviewing custom code, prioritizing remediation, and demonstrating that security controls are built into the development lifecycle rather than applied only after deployment.
Yes, we can assess both internally developed and third-party code.
Yes, we can assess both ABAP programs and SAPUI5/ Fiori applications.
We provide executive reports with summarized information for management and detailed reports for SAP development and security teams.
Detailed reports include full disclosure of the relevant vulnerabilities, risk statements ,and detailed remediation steps with examples of secure coding practices. The reports also include details of the root causes in terms of program names, packages, and the relevant lines of code.
Scans can be performed immediately after the installation of the scanning solution. Installation can be performed in under 1 hour.
