E-book: SAP ABAP Code Quality Benchmark

By:

June 23, 2020

SAP code is mostly written in ABAP, and it is an integral part of securing your SAP systems. ABAP developers often struggle to keep up with new and increasing changes and requirements in the fields of code security and code quality, leading to major vulnerabilities or misconfigurations within your SAP system. However, due to the average SAP system containing two million lines of custom-developed code, manual reviews are expensive, inefficient and time-consuming. As a result, custom code errors are frequent, and can heavily impact performance and lead to enormous financial costs. Download our ebook below to learn just how common these code issues are—based on analysis of the custom ABAP code of 373 Onapsis customer SAP systems—and explore the consequences they can have on overall system security, compliance, performance and stability.
