SecurityBridge has recently made waves in the cybersecurity landscape by launching its AI-powered security assistant for SAP systems—a significant leap forward for SAP security management. As many organizations rely heavily on SAP for their daily operations, ensuring these systems are secure is a top priority. Let’s take a closer look at this groundbreaking development and what it means for SAP customers.
A First-of-its-Kind AI Security Companion for SAP Customers
The SecurityBridge AI Companion is more than just a tool; it aims to empower users by simplifying the complexities of SAP security. Designed specifically to assist SecurityBridge customers, this AI companion helps navigate both the platform’s insights and the broader SAP security landscape.
One of the standout features of this assistant is its ability to provide real-time explanations and recommended actions for identified risks. For organizations where speed and clarity are essential, the AI Companion helps users make sense of security alerts almost instantly, turning confusion into actionable insights.
Moreover, it serves as a bridge to understanding complex SAP vulnerabilities, encouraging users to take proactive measures to protect their valuable SAP environments.
The SecurityBridge AI Companion offers three core capabilities that enhance user experience:
- Explain SAP Security Issues: This feature breaks down intricate SAP security alerts and technical findings into easily digestible explanations, catering to users who may not be cybersecurity experts.
- Recommend Remediation Actions: For any detected vulnerabilities or misconfigurations, the AI Companion offers tailored next steps and best practices derived from the extensive SecurityBridge knowledge base.
- Enhance Decision-Making: It answers critical “why” and “how” questions about SAP security, streamlining the decision-making process for teams tasked with safeguarding their systems.
As Ivan Mans, CTO and co-founder of SecurityBridge, remarks, “The SecurityBridge AI Companion brings our wealth of SAP security expertise directly to our customers’ fingertips.” This statement encapsulates the essence of their vision: to make SAP security insights not only accessible but also actionable.
Virtual Advisor Answers Natural-Language Queries About Best Practices and More
Another innovative aspect of the SecurityBridge AI Companion is its role as a virtual advisor. By answering users’ natural-language questions, it provides insights about best practices, compliance requirements, and potential threats in the realm of SAP security. This feature is particularly valuable for organizations that may not have a dedicated cybersecurity team.
The AI Companion has been meticulously trained on SecurityBridge’s comprehensive SAP security knowledge base, which includes vulnerability data, threat intelligence, and best-practice guidelines developed over the years. With this information at its disposal, the AI delivers contextually relevant advice almost instantly.
Users can interact with the assistant by simply asking questions or seeking guidance, transforming the complex landscape of SAP security into something manageable and less daunting. Holger Hügel, SecurityBridge’s product management director, emphasizes that the goal of the AI Companion is “to fundamentally simplify SAP cybersecurity for our customers.” He describes the assistant as akin to having a SecurityBridge expert on standby 24/7, providing immediate explanations and advising on optimal courses of action.
The AI Companion is set to be available generally in Q1 2026 and will be included with the standard SecurityBridge Platform subscription at no extra cost to customers. This strategic decision further underscores SecurityBridge’s commitment to making effective cybersecurity solutions accessible to a broader audience.
In recent news, SecurityBridge also appointed Roman Schubiger as Chief Revenue Officer (CRO) to spearhead its global SAP security growth, pursuing a channel-first strategy. This move signals a proactive approach to expanding its reach and influence within the cybersecurity landscape.
