Security Capability Maturity Framework

We deliver focused Technical SAP Security and GRC (Governance, Risk & Compliance) assessment services that identify high-risk exposures, remediate systemic control gaps, and convert SAP security into a strategic enabler for operational resilience and business growth. Our assessments turn complex platform risk into clear, prioritized actions that reduce financial, regulatory and operational risk while unlocking efficiencies and modernization opportunities.

What we do

  • Assess current security capability across people, process, technology and governance using a tailored maturity framework (0–5 levels).
  • Facilitate risk-appetite workshops with executives and control owners to define acceptable residual risk by business domain, asset class and regulatory requirement.
  • Map controls to risk appetite to identify tolerance gaps, unmanaged exposures and priority areas for investment.

How we benchmark

  • Use industry-specific benchmarks drawn from a combination of anonymized client data, public sector/regulatory baselines, and third-party threat and control datasets.
  • Compare maturity across domains (identity & access, application security, cloud, infrastructure, GRC, incident response) and produce percentile positioning versus peers in the same sector and company size.
  • Normalize results with weighted scoring so comparisons reflect business criticality and regulatory pressure.

Key outputs & value

  • Compact maturity scorecard showing current level, target level by timeframe, and clear gaps tied to business impact.
  • Risk-appetite statement and control-mapping showing which gaps exceed appetite and require immediate remediation.
  • Peer benchmarking report with percentile rank, common industry weaknesses, and quick-win recommendations.
  • Prioritized roadmap aligning remediation effort to risk reduction, compliance needs and cost/benefit.
Role Build Methodology

The SECURE Role Build Framework

The SECURE Framework is an optimized, scalable methodology for SAP Security role design. It prioritizes SAP standard SU24 proposals as a baseline to minimize custom maintenance. Risk management is embedded proactively by integrating GRC Segregation of Duties (SoD) checks early in the design phase.

To ensure cost-effective compliance, SAP license types are classified directly at the single-role level. The framework champions a modular approach: fine-grained, reusable task roles are built and then unified into composite business roles that map exactly to real-world job functions. Coupled with automated provisioning and continuous review cycles, the SECURE Framework delivers a secure, audit-ready, and highly cost-efficient SAP security architecture.

Standardize

Leverage SAP standard task and job roles proposals as baseline. Avoid custom objects where standard suffices.

Evaluate Risk

Integrate GRC SoD checks during the design phase to proactively identify and mitigate risks.

Classify Licenses

Assign SAP license types directly to single roles for automated, accurate license compliance.

Unify

Build fine-grained, reusable single task roles. Group them into composite business roles mapped directly to actual job functions.

Review

Get at least one Risk assessment review at each stage of the implementation cycle.

Execute

Periodically audit and license usage.
