Symphony co-hosts upcoming webinar with Symmetry
Wednesday, June, 16 2010 at 2:00 pm

Many organizations struggle with decisions on how to best incorporate SAP HCM into their technical environment. The question that often arises is whether or not to implement HCM on a separate landscape. This consideration is a key concern for smaller organizations that cannot afford the financial burden of an additional landscape. In the end, many companies do choose to maintain a separate HCM landscape however, issues such as data security and privacy concerns do not have to be the driving factors in making this decision.

Let Symmetry - the SAP security experts; and Symphony - the SAP HCM experts, walk you through some of the most common misconceptions about HCM security before you make that critical decision and spend money on a new environment.

In this free session Kellie Fitzpatrick (Symphony) and Scott Goolik (Symmetry) will discuss the pros and cons of implementing HCM on a separate instance and why data security and privacy issues should not be the only deciding factors when implementing HCM.

Attendees at this expert led session will be able to:

-Review general concepts of SAP HCM authorizations; how they are used, how they are different, and some of the critical "gotchas."
-Learn methods to effectively manage HCM security in a shared environment.
-Determine when you should consider a separate landscape and when you should consider a combined landscape.
-Understand the limitations of implementing on a separate instance and the level of maintenance required.
-See real-life examples of companies that have implemented on separate landscapes, those that have implemented on the same landscape, and why that decision was right for them.
-Take home action-items to follow up on in your environment:
- Details of specific Authorization Objects that require restrictions.
- Techniques to protect data in non-Production systems.
- Review of available Authorization Model monitoring tools that
guarantee against security breaches.
