Ensure ERP security with trusted software from Sage

Capture and protect your key business data, manage your resources and make faster decisions. Sage safeguards your ERP security with flexible, adaptable software solutions.

ERP security is vital to managing your business

Enterprise Resource Planning, or ERP, software gathers real-time data from across your business. Inventory, order management, supply chain, accounting, finance, procurement, HR and customer data is all kept in one central location.

Packed with every detail of your business’s critical day-to-day operations, ERP software helps you make smarter business decisions.

But all that information in one place also creates a security risk. Keeping your data safe and protecting your ERP security are vital for compliance and effective business performance.

Mitigate risks and safeguard critical data

Your ERP data is incredibly valuable and commercially sensitive. A hack or security breach could threaten your business’s future. Safeguarding confidential employee and customer information is essential too. There are a number of ways to manage ERP security.

Employee training

Train and regularly retrain your staff, so user errors don’t create security risks.

Install updates

Manufacturers build fixes to tackle known vulnerabilities so run regular software updates to include them.

Manage access

Ensure passwords are changed often and only give staff access to edit the data they need.

Comply with legislation

Be aware of changes in privacy laws and legislation, so your data storage remains compliant.

Reduce data exports

Choose an ERP system that offers all the functionality you need so data isn’t regularly transferred to external software.
