Further training in the area of authorization management
Authorization roles (transaction PFCG)
Finally, you must evaluate and implement the results of the preparatory work. The overview allows you to determine which user needs which function groups or function blocks and to set up the permission roles accordingly. You can exclude calls to Destination NONE from your evaluation because these calls are always internal calls to RFC function blocks. In this context, we recommend that you check the mappings for critical function blocks or functional groups.
If you want your own developments to meet your security requirements, just like the standard, you must assign table permission groups to the custom tables. Custom tables, or SAP standard tables that you want to protect in particular, belong to separate, if applicable, customer-specific table permission groups. If extensive permissions are to be granted for system administration or certain applications, this is done with the S_TABU_DIS authorization object for the table permission group. Since many standard tables do not have a table permission group assigned to them and therefore automatically end up in the table permission group &NC&, you should restrict access to this table permission group. For example, certain tables such as T000 (clients) are in a large table permission group (SS: RS: SAP control); therefore, it is better to restrict access via a separate table permission group. You should also always assign custom tables to a table permission group, otherwise they will also be assigned the table permission group &NC&. Therefore, we will explain below how you can create table permission groups and map tables.
Redesign of SAP® Authorizations
Add missing modification flags in SU24 data: This function complements the modification flag for entries that have changed since the last execution of step 2a in the transaction SU25, i.e., where there is a difference to the SAP data from the transaction SU22. The flag is thus set retrospectively, so that no customer data is accidentally overwritten with step 2a due to missing modification flags.
With the new transaction SAIS, you will enter the AIS cockpit, where you will be able to evaluate the various audit structures related to the topic. When performing an audit, under Audit Structure, select one of the existing structures and select a check number in the appropriate field. Audit structures may be subject to different audits; Therefore, you must always select an audit first. To do this, select a verification number or create a new audit. After you select the audit, the audit tree will appear in the cockpit. You can now perform the individual steps of the audit along the definition in the audit tree.
Secure your go-live additionally with "Shortcut for SAP systems". You can assign necessary SAP authorizations quickly and easily directly in the system.
If you do not encrypt communication between the client and the application servers, it is surprisingly easy for a third party to catch the username and password.
If a login is now made via other authentication methods (such as SSO), these are not affected by the password lock.
