"We selected Onapsis as a partner as they are at the forefront of SAP vulnerability research and provide an independent validation of our client's mission critical systems," said Pete Nicoletti, CISO of Virtustream. "With Onapsis, we can scan SAP systems even before they are moved to our IaaS platform, and get a very clear picture of the security level of the system. Our expert SAP support personnel then prioritize the issues and track and remediate as necessary to ensure that our clients' systems are operating at the highest level of security. Our clients get a detailed report showing the systems before and after to validate the enhanced security posture."

The Onapsis tool can be used in a "one and done" mode or can be set up to scan, report and remediate continuously. This capability further extends Virtustream's leadership and capabilities in hosting very secure SAP systems for commercial and Federal agency customers.
