Security Concepts and Tools

The infrastructure of ABAP platform supports you by delivering comprehensive security features.

In today's world of collaborative business processes and open system environments, security no longer means just adding a
rewall and using passwords to log on. It requires a complete approach that not only applies to your own IT landscape, but also
to issues that arise beyond your own borders, in which even simple organizational measures can have a signi cant impact. This
section describes the security functions and features available with the ABAP platform.

For information about our security recommendations, see ABAP Platform Security Guide, Secure Programming, and Identity
and Access Management .

Time-Based One-Time Passwords (TOTP)

This is custom documentation. For more information, please visit the SAP Help Portal 3
 2/13/2023
Time-based one-time passwords (TOTP) is an authentication mechanism de ned in the Internet Engineering Task Force
standard RFC 6238. Both parties in a communication use the current time and a seed to generate a token that is valid for just
one use.

The two parties in a communication arrangement must share a secret key, a seed. Both parties combine this seed with the
current time, such as Unix time, to generate tokens. When one party presents a token to the other party, the other party
compares the token they’ve created to determine if the tokens match. Matching tokens indicate that the parties share a secret
and have a trust relationship. These computations depend on both parties having clocks that aren’t too far out of synch.

TOTP isn’t considered strong enough to be used as an authentication method on its own. Use TOTP as an additional security
measure for two-factor authentication or in credential validation scenarios.

 Note
SAP provides an API to validate TOTPs, but did not integrate it into the FORM-based password logon, for example (in order
to achieve Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)).
