SecurityBridge Launches Automated Virtual Patching to Safeguard SAP Systems

by Jon Seals | October 24, 2024 | | 0 comments

New Feature Provides Real-Time Protection for Unpatched SAP Systems, Enhancing Efficiency and Security on SAP Patch Tuesday

Virtual Patching connects information from SAP Security Notes with the security signatures, allowing customers to see which monitoring listener or vulnerability check will provide that compensating control until the corresponding patch is implemented.

NEW YORK – SecurityBridge, the Cybersecurity Command Center for SAP, today announced its latest innovation: Virtual Patching, an advanced feature that enhances SAP security by providing automated protection for unpatched SAP systems starting on SAP Patch Day.

Virtual Patching is a cross-platform solution that integrates SecurityBridge’s Patch Management and Threat Detection modules. It offers seamless, real-time defense against vulnerabilities by alerting SAP administrators when unpatched code is detected. The solution protects affected SAP systems until official patches are implemented, allowing administrators to follow their patch management processes without compromising security.

“Our cross-functional innovation in Virtual Patching underscores SecurityBridge’s leadership in SAP security,” said Holger Hügel, Product Management Director at SecurityBridge. “With this 100 percent automated approach, SAP systems are safeguarded from the first moment a vulnerability is disclosed, ensuring continuous protection.”

Features of SecurityBridge’s Virtual Patching include:

  • Automated Threat Detection: Alerts are generated only for impacted SAP systems, ensuring targeted and relevant notifications.
  • Pre-configured Signatures: SecurityBridge updates its Threat Detection signatures via the cloud, requiring no manual system updates.
  • Patch Day Protection: SAP systems are automatically shielded from vulnerabilities when new SAP SecurityNotes are released on Patch Tuesday.

With the release of version 6.30 in early October 2024, Virtual Patching is now included in the SecurityBridge Platform subscription, making it a crucial tool for enterprises looking to streamline their SAP security operations.
