The SAP Hana DB Security Handbook: A Structured Guide for Practical Implementation (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798868827020)

The SAP HANA Security DB Handbook is designed to simplify Native SAP HANA Database Security --whether you're new to the topic or seeking to sharpen existing skills. It serves as both a learning tool and a practical reference guide for those involved in the implementation, configuration, and support of HANA DB security.

Focusing on real-world tasks performed by SAP Security Administrators, the book presents foundational concepts through clear explanations and hands-on, step-by-step instructions enhanced with detailed screenshots. It covers essential administrative topics such as user provisioning, object transport methods, error troubleshooting, integration with SAP GRC, data masking, and the creation and management of catalog and repository roles.

Rather than delving into advanced areas typically handled by infrastructure or basis teams--like certificate management or encryption--the book remains tightly aligned with the practical needs of day-to-day security administration. Special attention is given to interpreting and addressing security issues highlighted in SAP EarlyWatch and Security Optimization Service reports.
The book also features a dedicated section on Analytical Privileges, providing in-depth coverage of different view types and privilege models, along with guided steps to implement them effectively.
