BalkanID for SAP HANA

SAP HANA holds some of your most sensitive financial and operational data. BalkanID gives SAP HANA environments the governance layer they need, continuous risk detection, access reviews, JML lifecycle automation, and JITPBAC across every user, role, privilege, and technical account in your SAP HANA environment.
The Challenge

SAP HANA stores critical data. But access governance, SoD enforcement, and privilege control are a persistent gap.

SAP HANA environments accumulate users, roles, and privileges over time. Access granted for a project, a migration, or a support engagement rarely gets removed. SoD conflicts between read, write, and admin operations go undetected across role combinations. The result is a growing attack surface with unmonitored fraud risk inside your most sensitive data layer.

SAP HANA roles and privileges accumulate without systematic review

Role assignments and system privileges grow with every project, onboarding, and support engagement. Without continuous access reviews backed by real usage data, over-provisioned access compounds and access certifications rubber-stamp what was never appropriate.

Offboarding succeeds in your IdP but SAP HANA access persists

When an employee is deprovisioned in your IdP or HRIS, their SAP HANA users, roles, and technical privileges frequently remain active. Offboarding looks complete at the directory level. The SAP HANA access is still live.

SoD violations in SAP HANA go undetected across role combinations

Users who hold both data access and data modification privileges, or who combine read and administrative roles in SAP HANA, create segregation of duties violations with direct audit and fraud risk. These conflicts accumulate silently across role changes and are rarely surfaced by standard access review programmes.

How BalkanID Solves It

End-to-end SAP HANA identity governance. One platform.

BalkanID integrates with SAP HANA to bring continuous risk detection, role and privilege analysis, access reviews, lifecycle automation, and JITPBAC into a single governed view across your SAP landscape.

IAM Risk Analyzer

Surface every SAP HANA access risk continuously, before it becomes an incident

Reduced attack surface · Findings with recommended remediations

BalkanID continuously scans your SAP HANA environment for excessive privileges, stale users, SoD violations across transactional roles, and ungoverned technical accounts. Every finding is prioritised by severity and explained with recommended remediations in business language, not raw SAP privilege codes.

  • Continuous scanning across SAP HANA users, roles, system privileges, and schema assignments
  • SoD violations detected across SAP HANA transactional roles and explained with recommended remediations
  • Stale and dormant SAP HANA users flagged with last-used data and risk scoring
  • Technical users and service accounts discovered, risk-scored, and owner-assigned
RBAC Analyzer

Understand what every SAP HANA role and privilege actually grants, and whether it should

Least privilege enforced · Role sprawl eliminated · SoD violations detected and remediated

BalkanID models every SAP HANA role, privilege grant, and user assignment. Role Risk Factors score each for risk based on the underlying system and object privileges they carry. Birthright access is analysed against peers with the same function and team for consistent SAP HANA provisioning.

  • Role Risk Factor per SAP HANA role and privilege grant, including resolved underlying system privileges
  • Birthright access, peer analysis of colleagues with the same function and team for consistent SAP HANA provisioning
  • Confidence scores showing whether SAP HANA role holders share the same functional profile
  • Ideal state modelling, the delta between current SAP HANA role design and least-privilege target
User Access Reviews

Access reviews across all SAP HANA users, roles, and privileges, with full context for approvers

Audit-ready evidence · Informed decisions, not flat privilege exports

Run access certifications for every SAP HANA user, including roles, system privileges, schema assignments, and technical accounts. Approvers see last-used date, risk score, peer comparison, and recommended action, with underlying privileges resolved and visible. Not a raw SAP HANA privilege export.

  • Connected reviews, SAP HANA user and role data synced in real time
  • Role reviews with underlying system and object privileges resolved and surfaced for approvers
  • Technical user and service account reviews with scope and last-used data per identity
  • Evidence generated automatically, no manual assembly before SOX, SOC 2, or ISO 27001 audit windows
Lifecycle Management & JML Playbooks

Right SAP HANA access on day one. Fully removed the day they leave.

Zero orphaned SAP HANA users · No residual role or privilege assignments

Automate every Joiner, Mover, and Leaver event connected to your HRIS and SAP HANA. New hires get the correct roles based on peer analysis. Role changes trigger an atomic recalculation across SAP HANA and connected systems. Leavers have their SAP HANA user disabled and all role and privilege assignments removed, with revocation verified.

  • Joiner, correct SAP HANA roles and schema assignments provisioned on day one via peer analysis
  • Mover, SAP HANA role assignments recalculated and applied atomically on any HRIS attribute change
  • Leaver, SAP HANA user disabled and all role and privilege assignments removed and verified
  • Full audit trail for every provisioning and deprovisioning action in SAP HANA and connected applications
JITPBAC & Non-Human Identity Governance

Eliminate standing SAP HANA privilege. Govern every identity type.

No standing system privilege · Technical users and schema owners governed

Replace persistent SAP HANA system privilege assignments and broad schema grants with just-in-time, purpose-based access that is time-bound, approved, and automatically revoked. For technical users, schema owners, and service accounts in SAP HANA, BalkanID provides full discovery, risk scoring, and continuous governance.

  • JITPBAC, elevated SAP HANA system privilege or sensitive schema grant issued for a defined window then automatically revoked
  • No standing system privilege risk, a compromised SAP HANA account carries no persistent SYSTEM or DBA privilege
  • Technical user and schema owner discovery, every non-human identity in SAP HANA risk-scored and owner-assigned
  • Continuous governance across SAP HANA and the broader SAP landscape

Every SAP HANA user. Every role and privilege. Always governed.

BalkanID gives your team a live, continuously updated view of SAP HANA identity risk, across users, roles, system privileges, schema assignments, technical accounts, and SoD conflicts, including access that bypassed your standard provisioning process entirely.

  • SAP HANA users, roles, and system privileges risk-scored with underlying grants resolved
  • SoD violations across SAP HANA transactional roles detected and explained with recommended remediations
  • Stale and dormant SAP HANA users flagged by severity with last-used data surfaced
  • Technical users and schema owners outside standard governance fully discovered and governed
Business outcomes

SoD and fraud risk eliminated

SoD violations across SAP HANA role combinations detected and remediated continuously, reducing audit findings and fraud exposure across your data layer.

Smallest possible blast radius

JITPBAC eliminates standing SAP HANA system privileges. A compromised account carries no persistent SYSTEM or DBA access.

Audit-ready evidence, always

Access review evidence generated from live SAP HANA data, not assembled manually before SOX or SOC 2 audit windows.

Automated Joiner, Mover, and Leaver

SAP HANA users provisioned, recalculated, and deprovisioned automatically from HRIS events, with full audit evidence at every step.
