Component Security

SAP Mobile Platform consists of multiple components that are installed on internal networks, primarily on the corporate LAN and the demilitarized zone (DMZ). Each component requires specific administration tasks to secure it.

Platform components use various SAP Mobile Platform security features. Some features are standards of the platform, while others are optional and up to the administrator or developer to implement.
