Proactive instead of reactive: Why you should complement SAP RISE with Scansor

RISE with SAP provides a solid foundation – but reactive monitoring alone is not enough. Scansor closes the gaps and delivers proactive early warnings, deeper insights, and security checks. This way, you can act in time, ensure compliance with NIS2 & ISO, and strengthen your business continuity.

Business continuity goes beyond SLA.

RISE with SAP ensures that your system runs – SLA-compliant and technically stable. But what happens between the lines? Problems often signal themselves long before an SLA violation occurs. With purely RISE monitoring, these early indicators remain invisible.

Scansor complements SAP RISE with proactive SAP monitoring – so you can act before your business processes suffer. Scansor closes the gaps and provides deep insights into:

SAP Security (critical permissions, users, syslog, parameter values, and security baseline)
Stability & Processes (jobs, application log, interfaces, dumps)
Hybrid Transparency (RFCs/IDocs for non-SAP integration)

Why reactive monitoring is not enough

SAP only reports SLA-relevant deviations.

Early indicators, such as slow queue buildup or unusual user activity, are overlooked.
Tickets run through SAP processes – your internal response is delayed.

How Scansor makes you more independent

Own view of the system state: You are not solely dependent on SAP reports.
Early warnings: Scansor detects anomalies and critical developments in time.
Faster response times: You can act immediately – without waiting for SAP tickets.

Compliance & Security in Focus

Especially with regard to NIS2, BSI basic protection, and ISO requirements, continuous monitoring is mandatory. Scansor provides you with:

Monitoring of critical permission changes
Evaluation of security audit logs
Detection of suspicious user activities
Complete audit trails for regulatory evidence

Benefits at a Glance

✅ Independent view of your systems
✅ Proactive problem prevention instead of reactive action
✅ Compliance and security monitoring at enterprise level
✅ Data history for long-term optimization

Conclusion

This allows you to cover exactly those points in a RISE environment that are not included in SAP’s standard monitoring – such as interfaces, permissions, application logs, critical processes, performance metrics, and security aspects.

With RISE with SAP, you get a solid foundation. With Scansor, you take it a step further: you detect problems early, ensure compliance, and strengthen your business continuity.
