Especially in the current economy it is every company’s responsibility to keep honest employees honest by preventing opportunities and temptation!

bioLock is the first and only certified biometric technology available for SAP. bioLock will allow a company to ensure that only the actual authorized user can use the assigned SAP User Profile. Furthermore, bioLock will protect individual functions in the system (in case the authorized user leaves without logging out of the system). Unauthorized users will always be rejected even when walking up to an open computer. Most importantly, bioLock will not only uniquely identify the actual user, but will also log in a log file, which actual user – uniquely identified via biometrics – has actually executed a task or was rejected trying to execute a task without being authorized. The log file will give the business managers and auditors the ultimate knowledge and control about what is going on in their SAP System. Please check out this document to understand this simple security concept in an easy comparison and learn, how bioLock will help maintaining the integrity of your SAP data.
