SAP security for banks and insurers
Banks and insurers use SAP for banking components, collections and disbursements, and group finance. Those systems move money every day, which makes them a direct target for fraud and a priority for regulators. RedRays gives security and audit teams one view of the risk.

Why financial SAP draws attention
In financial services the line between a security gap and a financial loss is short.
Systems that move money
Payment runs, disbursements and bank master data are where a small access mistake turns into a large loss.
DORA and operational resilience
Since January 2025, EU financial entities must manage ICT risk, test resilience and report major incidents. SAP is part of that ICT estate.
Auditors want proof
SOX and internal audit expect documented access reviews, change control and monitoring of privileged users in SAP.
