Onapsis, the global leaders in ERP cybersecurity and compliance, announced IBM Security’s team of veteran hackers, X-Force Red, will use its ERP technology to help organizations identify exploitable vulnerabilities in their business-critical applications.

X-Force Red will use Onapsis’ ERP technology when performing vulnerability assessments and penetration testing against SAP and Oracle applications to help quickly uncover known and unknown vulnerabilities.

Customers can access X-Force Red’s services through the X-Force Red Portal, the team’s cloud-based communications and collaboration platform. Using the X-Force Red Portal, customers can sign up for tests and assessments, check their status, view findings as they are uncovered, view remediation recommendations, and communicate directly with X-Force Red testers, eliminating time-consuming back and forth and the manual sharing of spreadsheets.

“We are very excited to be a part of X-Force Red’s vulnerability assessment offering. In the face of explosive growth in attacks to ERP systems, as evidenced by the US Department of Homeland Security releasing two critical alerts in the past three years, organizations have realized they must incorporate ERP continuous vulnerability assessment and monitoring into their security programs. With Onapsis’ patented ERP cybersecurity technology, combined with X-Force Red’s security expertise and attacker mindset, organizations can now quickly understand their security posture, and receive actionable information on how to ensure the core of their business is secure,” said Mariano Nunez, CEO and Co-founder, Onapsis Inc.

“SAP and Oracle ERP are applications that many organizations use for sensitive business processes,” said Charles Henderson, Global Partner and Head of X-Force Red. “Because of their importance and the kind of data they hold, it is crucial these applications are scanned and tested continuously so that critical vulnerabilities can be remediated before attackers find them. Our collaboration with Onapsis will make that mission come to fruition.”

X-Force Red delivers vulnerability assessment and security testing programs that focus on uncovering vulnerabilities across applications, hardware, personnel, internet-connected devices, networks, cars, ATMs, blockchain and just about everything else.

The team is comprised of veteran hackers who apply the same tools, techniques, practices and mindset as attackers, uncovering exploitable vulnerabilities that may lead criminals to the crowned jewels.

This collaboration further highlights Onapsis’ increased effort on growing the global ERP security partner ecosystem. Onapsis also works closely with the IBM Security Services group for protecting, continuous monitoring, addressing compliance and enabling cloud migrations of some of the world’s largest organizations.
