Breakout Session | GRC (10:30-11:15 AM, November 14th)
Harnessing the Power: Maximizing IAM Efficiency with SAP Cloud IAG
This session will provide a robust exploration of how SAP Cloud Identity Access Governance (SAP Cloud IAG) empowers businesses to conquer these challenges head-on. Within this session’s framework, we will delve into the capabilities of SAP Cloud IAG as a potent service from the SAP Business Technology Platform Cloud Platform (SCP). We will unpack how it operates in tandem with, rather than as a replacement for, SAP Access Control, thereby enhancing SAP’s existing GRC solutions. We will guide you through the SAP Cloud IAG’s intuitive, dashboard-driven interface, highlighting how it simplifies IAM tasks in the cloud, bolstering security, and fortifying compliance practices.
As we unravel the suite of SAP Cloud IAG’s offerings – from self-service access requests to in-depth access risk analysis and role design – attendees will glean insights into how these services can operate both independently and collaboratively, providing a flexible, tailored approach to IAM. By joining this action-oriented presentation, participants will equip themselves with knowledge and strategies to fully harness the power of SAP Cloud IAG, thereby maximizing efficiency, ensuring compliance, and optimizing IAM operations in their respective organizations.
You will:
- Streamline IAM processes.
- Navigate the intuitive, dashboard-driven interface of SAP Cloud IAG, mastering how to streamline complex IAM tasks in both on-premise and cloud environments.
- Maximize compliance practices by leveraging SAP Cloud IAG’s comprehensive access risk analysis capabilities, enhancing compliance and mitigating security risks in your organization.
- Harness self-service access requests and understand the benefits and procedures of self-service access requests for on-premise and cloud applications, boosting efficiency and user autonomy.
- Master role design by diving deep into the role design capabilities of SAP Cloud IAG, learning to create and manage roles effectively for optimal access governance.
- Customize identity and access management.
- Discover the flexibility of SAP Cloud IAG’s services while gaining insights into how you can operate both independently and collaboratively, allowing you to customize IAM solutions tailored to your unique business needs.

Impact20 Session | Cybersecurity (1:30-1:50 PM, November 14th)
SAP Security in Hybrid System Landscapes
The implementation of a holistic security architecture is becoming indispensable in the age of cybersecurity and the rapid increase of new applications.
The use of cloud-based applications is creating hybrid landscapes that present many customers with new challenges. Not only do cloud solutions need to be secured and documented, but new interfaces between cloud and on-premise solutions are emerging, which need to be implemented cleanly.
In this session, Alessandro Banzer (CEO | Xiting USA) provides an overview of:
- the complexity of hybrid landscapes
- the seamless connection of cloud-based SAP solutions using the Xiting Security Platform and the Xiting Content Platform
- practical GRC use cases with the Xiting Security Platform and the Xiting Content Platform

Breakout Session | Cybersecurity (11:30-12:15 PM, November 15th)
Mastering RFC Security: Turbocharge Your SAP System with SAP UCON and Authorization Management
The digital revolution is accelerating at an unprecedented pace, placing security and performance at the forefront of business priorities. Remote Function Calls (RFCs) play a vital role in these priorities, enabling seamless data exchange but often acting as a gateway to vulnerabilities. This session will explore how businesses can harness the synergy of SAP’s Unified Connectivity (UCON) framework and sound authorization management to bolster security and efficiency in RFCs. SAP UCON adds a robust layer of protection by preventing unnecessary external access to Remote Function Modules (RFMs). However, while UCON restricts external access, it doesn’t regulate user-level access; that’s where tailored authorizations come into play. By effectively reauthorizing RFC users, the risks of over-privileged RFC interfaces and corresponding technical users can be minimized without hindering operational flow. The combination of these two elements offers a comprehensive solution for securing and optimizing your SAP systems.
You will:
Gain practical insights into how these tools can be used, potential challenges that might be encountered, and how to maximize their potential to benefit your business operations.
Explore how to configure and leverage SAP UCON for RFC interface security, and the critical role of the default communication assembly.
Understand why SAP UCON is not a standalone solution and why proper user-level authorization management is required.
Learn how XAMS enhances role building and testing, streamlines RFC authorization creation, and optimizes RFC interfaces with minimal operational disruption.
Learn the synergistic benefits of utilizing both SAP UCON and XAMS in securing and optimizing SAP systems, including an understanding of the dual-check process in SAP’s security framework.
Discover best practices and practical steps for harnessing the power of standard solutions in your SAP system.

Collaboration Break Session | GRC
Next-Level Ruleset Management
Rulesets are often overlooked and not properly maintained especially during upgrades (e.g. S/4HANA migration) and hence out of date. With the Xiting Content Platform (XCP), rulesets can be managed centrally with the ability to reference rules back to standard rules that are regularly updated. In addition, a large set of ruleset content is available to be selected.
In this session, explore the capabilities of XCP and learn how you can effectively manage your rulesets.
You will:
Gain practical insights into how these tools can be used, potential challenges that might be encountered, and how to maximize their potential to benefit your business operations.
Explore how to configure and leverage SAP UCON for RFC interface security, and the critical role of the default communication assembly.
