Onapsis, the specialist in business-critical application cybersecurity and compliance, has announced the release of the Onapsis Research Labs (ORL) Threat Intel Center.

This advanced solution connects the Onapsis Threat Intelligence Cloud, a global network of sensors and applications instrumented to capture the activity of attackers exploiting mission-critical applications, and deep research conducted by the ORL into a unified, detailed threat intelligence repository.

According to the company, while cyber crime is escalating and threatening business continuity, the cybersecurity skills shortage is only getting larger, with 62% of organisations reporting that their security teams are inadequately staffed.

The ORL Threat Intel Center will alleviate the burden placed on already-strained security teams by delivering a comprehensive transfer of knowledge, enabling them to efficiently protect their organisation while building their expertise in SAP and Oracle security.

As leading brands have seen more sophisticated attacks on enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems and elevated exploit activity targeting vulnerable, unpatched, and complex ERP landscapes, the need for threat intelligence on these ERP attacks has never been higher, Onapsis states.

Sadik Al-Abdulla, CPO of Onapsis, says, "Having discovered 800+ zero-day vulnerabilities and six U.S. Department of Homeland Security critical alerts attributed to our research in the past six years, the award-winning Onapsis Threat Research Labs continues to lead the charge in protecting the critical systems that are foundational to the global economy.

"The ORL Threat Intel Center collects and consolidates ORL research into a consumable collection of information, bringing awareness to new critical vulnerabilities and elevated activity of older vulnerabilities. The solution also provides valuable context and insights into the evolving ERP threat landscape to help customers better secure their SAP and Oracle environments.

"This includes linking to modules and scans across Onapsis four products - Assess, Defend, Comply, and Control. This new addition to the Onapsis Threat Intelligence Cloud will give organisations the critical advantages of foresight and speed."

According to the company, when it comes to securing business-critical applications, every second counts. Al-Abdulla says, as the only company with a threat intelligence group dedicated to business-critical application security, Onapsis is focused on leading the market with features that help customers protect the assets that matter most.

The ORL Threat Intel Center comes on the heels of several significant Onapsis product updates announced earlier this year.

In June, the company launched a new Network Detection Rule Pack for Onapsis Defend, further enhanced support for SAP SuccessFactors and a SaaS version of the Onapsis Platform, providing customers with an added layer of protection and accelerated time-to-value with seamless deployment.

In May, Onapsis released Assess Baseline to accelerate enterprises abilities to jumpstart their SAP vulnerability management programs by improving alignment with the SAP Security Baseline.

Overall, Onapsis is focused on protecting the business-critical applications that run the global economy. The company's cybersecurity offering, The Onapsis Platform, delivers vulnerability management, threat detection and response, change assurance, and continuous compliance for business-critical applications from leading vendors such as SAP, Oracle, and other SaaS platforms.
