Avantra monitors SAP security patch status across entire landscapes, checking each newly published SAP HotNews note against every managed system and tracking which systems still need it. It covers the patch side of SAP vulnerability management, which is a different job from code-level vulnerability scanning.

Avantra handles RISE with SAP security monitoring for the layer that stays with the customer under the RISE with SAP shared responsibility model. SAP operates the infrastructure, network, database, and operating system, while the customer still owns application configuration, users and authorizations, custom code, and requesting the SAP Security Notes that SAP doesn’t apply proactively.

Avantra restores SAP compliance after missed patch cycles by measuring the real gap on every system, automating the catch-up in risk order, and monitoring continuously afterward. A missed cycle can leave SAP operations out of compliance or exposed to documented vulnerabilities, and until each system is assessed, the impact is unknown. Getting “back to good” requires three steps: The patching itself is rarely the hard part.
