ABOUT US (TEAM)
Maintaining security is a constantly shifting task, and we need to
respond with continuous learning and research. The portfolio of SAP
Security Research contains those topics that we believe are most
important for SAP’s security future.
SAP’s vision to secure business is built on 3 ideals:
Zero-Vulnerability, to harden the software by eliminating
vulnerabilities, Defensible Application, to enable the software to
identify and prevent attacks, and Zero-Knowledge, to make any theft of
data useless through encryption.
Considering these aspects, SAP Security Research covers the following
focal areas: Anonymization for Big Data, Secure Internet of Things,
Software security analysis, Open-source analysis, Deceptive
application, Applied cryptography, Quantum technology, and Machine
Learning as enabler for the next generation of security.
PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES
This internship is based in the SAP Labs France Research Lab, in
Sophia-Antipolis. The work will be performed in the context of the
Research Program “Security & Trust”, and deals with secure
integration of Internet of Things with SAP HANA applications. The
Internet of Things (IoT) is expected to grow to 50 billion connected
devices and $14.4 trillion in value at stake until 2020. SAP is
exploiting this trend and centers its IoT development on the SAP HANA
Cloud Platform IoT Service.
Until now, the backend (on-prem & cloud) deployments were considered
as the single source of truth & unique point of access in regards of
Enterprise Systems (ES). Nevertheless, a paradigm shift has been
recently observed, by the deployment of ES assets towards the Edge
sectors of the landscapes; by distributing data, decentralizing
applications, de-abstracting technology and integrating edge
components seamlessly to the central backend systems.
“Moving toward the last mile of automation, in regard to Public
Procurement, is of paramount strategic value to the French
Government.” CIO, City of Antibes.
This paradigm shift strongly impacts the generation, deployment and
execution of digital legally binding documents. In that context, Smart
Cities and Nations foster the adoption of technology trends and hypes
for lean and seamless procurement contracts. The objective is
two-fold:
* Compliance with procurement legal & institutional frameworks, with
fraud detection, and proactive obligations & penalties management
* End-to-end high-resolution management, for secure transparency, and
semantical consistency & integrity.
Next-Gen Contract Management4 goes along with periodic reporting,
monitoring and assessment; risk management and real-time visibility
and insights. On that respect, the concept of Ricardian Contract, as
introduced by Ian Grigg in the mid-1990s, serves the materialization
of such business objectives, while moving toward to the digitalization
of legally binding agreement document5.
