Onapsis’ product updates strengthen business application security

At RSA Conference 2022, Onapsis announced enhanced information security solutions for its Assess and Defend products.

Building on the momentum from the Assess Baseline launch, Onapsis is extending the reach of Onapsis Research Labs to the network layer to make it easier for cybersecurity teams to protect what matters most with a new Network Detection Rule Pack for Onapsis Defend and further enhancing support for SAP SuccessFactors, a cloud-based human capital management (HCM) solution, and the Onapsis SaaS platform.

Business-critical applications are increasingly at risk, as customers struggle to keep up with unpatched vulnerabilities, ERP-focused threat actor groups, and other cyber hazards on a global scale. In this environment it is essential that organizations are equipped with the proper tools to patch or mitigate those critical vulnerabilities that are repeatedly exploited by cybercriminals.

Onapsis’ new product updates will deliver valuable, business-critical threat intelligence capabilities to an organization’s existing network security solutions; increase support for cloud-based SAP SuccessFactors to better track user privileges, permissions, and suspicious behavior; and enhance its SaaS for Assess offering.

“With our new additions to Onapsis Defend and Onapsis Assess, customers are offered an extra layer of protection and an accelerated time-to-value with simplified deployment,” said Sadik Al-Abdulla, Chief Product Officer of Onapsis. “Onapsis Research Labs and our product teams are continuously digging deeper to help the world’s most reputable and distinguished brands successfully integrate their business-critical applications into their existing cybersecurity programs. These offerings exemplify our commitment to innovation and delivering pragmatic solutions that have an immediate impact on their security posture.”
