Stronger Controls, Smoother IPO

IPO-filing companies regularly disclose material weaknesses from inadequate controls and Segregation of Duties (SoD) issues. Managing access and governance manually across complex application landscapes makes these gaps almost inevitable – jeopardizing investor confidence. It doesn’t have to be this way.

Nearly 50% of companies spend 32% of companies reported material weaknesses during their IPOs resulting from SoD issues.

For companies running SAP, cybersecurity gaps can quickly become material weaknesses in the eyes of auditors and investors.
