Oracle application customers are embarking on a journey of cloud transformation by rapidly adopting Oracle SaaS for HCM, ERP, Sales, CRM and Marketing business processes. Mobile devices and the cloud platform have undeniably altered the traditional network perimeter. IT professionals can no longer assume trust across the stack as resources are available from anywhere and from any device. As customers are adopting an API first approach to provide business value to their partners and consumers, they need to understand what threats and vulnerabilities these APIs may expose. And identity becomes the new perimeter in this business transformation.
According to various surveys, security is the single biggest barrier in SaaS adoption. More than 50% of executives are concerned about SaaS security and expect cyber attacks against their ERP systems, which correlates to an increase in spending on cyber security projects year over year. As the security needs of the modern enterprise evolve, we must master the most relevant identity security practices for protecting your SaaS deployments.
Some organizations moving their business critical applications to SaaS deployments experience challenges around:
It comes down to knowing who your users are and what they can do. Oracle’s identity and access management tools enable you by giving you control of who can access what ERP resources with simple configurations.
In our virtual workshop, we’ll take a look at how to use Identity Cloud Service to integrate Oracle SaaS apps with your existing SSO infrastructure to ensure the right access for ERP users, protect the application from unauthorized access, and enforce strong authentication. We’ll cover SaaS security trends, how to address the most common security challenges, and provide a deeper dive on various security controls that IDCS provides for Oracle SaaS apps.
