SAP Universal ID and Passwordless Logon

SAP recently teamed with German startup Hanko to add biometrics-based passwordless security protection to its recently launched SAP Universal ID, which provides SAP users with a unified account that enables access to all SAP products and services in one place.

The goal of the partnership is to increase protection against data breaches without affecting employee productivity.

To explore this new capability further, SAPinsider Senior Editor Fred Donovan sat down with Michael Braun, IT Chief Product Owner of Identity and User Management at SAP, and Felix Magedanz, founder and CEO of Hanko.
