Zscaler for SAP S/4HANA
Simplify connectivity, optimize application performance, and deliver a great user experience with security in mind
Secure access and app modernization with zero trust for SAP ERP and S/4HANA
Accelerate SAP ECC to SAP S/4HANA cloud migration and scale SAP throughout the transformation process with the Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange™ to effortlessly achieve application modernization while securing remote access to business critical applications—without the need for VPNs. It gives your users and third parties reliable, secure connectivity and performance from any device, in any location, over any network.
The challenges
Disruptions to modernization
Complex, outdated networks and infrastructure can drag out SAP and cloud migration timelines, increasing costs and making user access to essential apps more difficult.
Frustrating user experiences
Frequent downtime and slow application connections affect productivity, and a lack of visibility into access and controls makes it challenging to resolve user experience issues.
Increased application attack surface
Connecting users and third-party vendors to SAP applications through a VPN leaves the network exposed and broadens your attack surface, adding significant business risk.
Zscaler for SAP: zero trust for security and beyond
Ensure access to SAP S/4HANA goes uninterrupted during a cloud migration process. Optimized for agility and scale, the Zscaler inline security cloud removes complex networks, enabling better visibility and making for easier, more secure migration from on-premises SAP ERP workloads to SAP S/4HANA in HEC environments and the public cloud, so you can:
Keep the business running: Zscaler Private Access™ application connectors are cloud-delivered, deploying in minutes with no downtime.
Unify access policy: Zscaler doesn’t change user access, no matter where you are in your cloud transformation journey—access is consistent across all locations and devices.
Secure cloud migration: Adaptive zero trust access based on identity and context reduces your attack surface and makes SAP more agile and scalable.
Improve user experience: Granular visibility into access and control from Zscaler Digital Experience™ helps you pinpoint root cause and speed up MTTR for user experience issues.
Reliable and secure user access to business-critical SAP applications, without VPN
Built on a cloud native architecture, the Zero Trust Exchange eliminates the need for VPN gateways and legacy appliances that have limited capacity and cause latency and connectivity issues. It ensures direct, secure application connections for users and third parties, reducing your attack surface and the risk of lateral movement, enabling you to:
Maximize productivity: Always-on access to business-critical systems and applications removes the need to backhaul traffic through unreliable VPNs.
Optimize connectivity anywhere: Connections take the shortest path: remote users through the closest Zscaler Public Service Edge, and in-office employees through an on-prem Private Service Edge.
Protect SAP from cyberthreats: Zero trust policies never place users or third parties on your corporate network, and applications are never exposed to the internet, making them invisible to unauthorized users.
Maintain regulatory compliance: Zero trust network access based on identity and context, without costly infrastructure and VPNs, adheres to emerging compliance regulations such as NIST 800-207.
