Zygot has developed a next-gen EOS blockchain-based ERP software called “ZERP” which assures better security for ERP user companies compared to traditional ERP companies like SAP
Canada, May 17, 2019: More than 50,000 businesses using SAP ERP or other SAP systems are currently under deep security concerns after the recent discovery of easy exploits for SAP vulnerabilities. These exploits have already been made public and will enable hackers to get into SAP applications conveniently and abuse the confidential business data hosted on them. In fact, Worse, these exploits will let anybody to invade the SAP ERP and do not call for any sophisticated hacking knowledge or experience.
According to leading security company Onapsis, these vulnerabilities are caused by the insecure configuration of SAP Message Server and SAP Gateway – the two of the most commonly used components in modern businesses. It’s not that these SAP issues are newly discovered. Onapsis has emphasized that many of them came to light years ago but nothing was done to fix them effectively.
“The recently discovered exploits about SAP vulnerabilities can bring a user-company to a standstill in just seconds”, stated Onapsis. “These exploits would readily enable hackers to steal just anything which is stored on the SAP system of a user company.”
Once a hacker gets access to that critical business information, he can fiddle with the information to withdraw money, conduct financial fraud or he can simply disrupt the entire system for the user-business.
The German ERP giant SAP reported that it had already published guidance on effectively configuring security settings back in 2009 & 2013. However, Onapsis has further emphasized that 90% of concerned SAP systems were not properly guarded.
As per Mathieu Geli, a leading researcher behind the newly-found SAP exploits, these exploits target the way different SAP applications communicated with each other inside a firm. In case of any issue with the configuration of security settings of an SAP user-company, a hacker may trick an SAP application into deeming him as some other SAP application. This way, it will gain the trust of the SAP application and get complete access to the data stored on SAP systems – without using any sort of login credential.
Zygot shows the light
