Case Study: OMV achieves real-time threat detection and strengthened cybersecurity with SAP HANA

OMV AG Strengthening Austria’s critical infrastructure

OMV AG, an Austrian energy and chemicals company shifting toward sustainable fuels and circular-economy solutions, needed stronger protection for its SAP environment because it operates as critical infrastructure and is a frequent target for cyberattacks. The company sought a trusted partner to add application-layer threat detection and to define an integrated, adaptable SAP cybersecurity strategy.

Working with SAP and IBM, OMV deployed SAP Enterprise Threat Detection alongside SAP Advisory Services and IBM’s cybersecurity expertise, integrating it with its SIEM to monitor more than 400 SAP systems and over 4.5 billion log events per month. The solution provides real-time visibility and faster countermeasures, expanded forensic controls, and centralized security baselines to help ensure ongoing compliance with recommended SAP security guidelines.
