Enhancing Efficiency Equals Money Savings: Strengthening ERP Systems for Increased Resilience

In today's interconnected world, the importance of robust cybersecurity, especially for critical Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems, cannot be overstated. Onapsis, a leading cybersecurity company, offers a suite of solutions designed specifically for ERP systems that help businesses protect their critical infrastructure and ensure business continuity.

Onapsis' threat monitoring system includes anomaly scoring and guidance for damage mitigation, serving as an early warning system for potential cyberattacks on ERP applications. This proactive approach is crucial in a scenario where every second counts for protecting critical systems.

The chemical and biotechnology industry, with its potential risks to end-users like patients who rely on medical products, requires quick response times. Onapsis' solutions have proven effective in this regard, reducing the mean time to repair (MTTR) by 83% and even 96% in critical incidents.

The utility sector is another area where Onapsis has made a significant impact. A large utility company now uses Onapsis' product Assess for targeted and comprehensive vulnerability management specifically for ERP applications. This has resulted in the company saving approximately 90 percent of the time spent on patching, thanks to Onapsis' automated vulnerability scans and prioritised risk assessments.

Onapsis' continuous ERP threat monitoring includes over 2,000 detection rules, providing valuable insights into risks within critical ERP applications. This comprehensive approach helps businesses identify potential attack vectors and implement protective measures, as demanded by the biotechnology company that initially sought Onapsis' services.

The key to effective cybersecurity lies in shortening the time between a security incident, its detection, and the initiation of countermeasures. By focusing on MTTD (Mean-Time-To-Detect) and MTTR (Mean-Time-To-Remediate), companies can measure their cyber defense capabilities. Solutions specifically designed for ERP systems, like Onapsis, significantly improve these parameters, enhancing system protection.

Speed is crucial in a company's resilience, particularly when protecting critical ERP systems. ERP systems are central to modern companies, controlling functions like finance and supply chain management. Onapsis' solutions provide timely warnings and instructions to help IT teams efficiently remediate vulnerabilities, ensuring business continuity and minimising financial losses, fines, and reputational damage.

Onapsis' solutions are not alone in the ERP security ecosystem. Companies like Checkmarx, a leader in autonomous cloud-native application security, also play a significant role. Onapsis integrates with CrowdStrike Falcon Next-Gen SIEM, and Qualys provides AI-driven cyber risk agents for ERP security.

Recent statistics highlight the importance of effective cybersecurity. The total damages caused by data theft, espionage, and sabotage to the German economy annually is 206 billion euros. Cyberattacks are responsible for 72% of the total damage, with a significant increase from the previous year (63%). The longer a compromise goes undetected in IT security, the greater the damage. Therefore, having a reliable and proactive cybersecurity solution like Onapsis is more important than ever.
