Case Study: MAPA GmbH achieves secure SAP test data anonymization with EPI-USE Labs Data Secure

MAPA Customized protection for sensitive SAP® HCM data

The customer, MAPA GmbH, faced the challenge of securing sensitive SAP HCM data, such as employee information, for use in test systems without violating the German Federal Data Protection Act (BDSG). A system split between their integrated SAP HCM and ERP modules would have been prohibitively complex and expensive. To address this, they turned to vendor EPI-USE Labs for its Data Secure solution.

EPI-USE Labs implemented Data Secure, a tool that provided flexible, field-level anonymization of data directly within their SAP system. This allowed MAPA to quickly create secure, high-quality test systems with consistent, usable data while maintaining full system integrity and process references. The solution from EPI-USE Labs was implemented swiftly with minimal customization and has set a new standard for how MAPA will handle sensitive data in all future systems.
