SAP GRC and Pathlock implementations take months. Your SoD risks are not waiting. MTC Skopos runs risk analysis and remediation from day one, with no infrastructure and no configuration project. Clean your authorization landscape before you automate it, stay clean during rollout, and transfer your validated ruleset to SAP GRC or Pathlock when it goes live. Then keep Skopos for the systems your GRC suite does not reach.

Role redesign projects typically stretch across months of consultant workshops, spreadsheet gymnastics, and back-and-forth validation cycles. The AI Role Designer collapses this into an iterative conversation: provide a functional blueprint, let AI analyze historical usage, generate a new role concept, run risk analysis, and refine until clean. Then build the roles, whether manually or through AI connected directly to SAP.

SoD remediation has long been the bottleneck of GRC programs. This white paper explains how MTC Skopos automates the process with a four-phase algorithm that prioritizes least-disruptive fixes, protects business continuity, and validates every recommendation before implementation.

A guide to building an accounts payable segregation of duties matrix for SAP, with specific transaction codes, authorization objects, and common AP SoD conflicts.

A technical reference for SAP SoD conflicts: specific transaction code combinations, authorization objects that drive conflicts, and practical detection methods for SAP ECC and S/4HANA.

Traditional SoD analysis identifies who has conflicting access. Did-Do analysis answers the critical follow-up question: Did users with risky access actually make changes? This evidence-based access violation monitoring approach transforms compliance from theoretical to actionable.

Your ECC SoD matrix won't work in S/4HANA. Learn how to build a ruleset that covers Fiori apps, OData services, and the new authorization architecture - without starting from scratch.

A comprehensive comparison of Segregation of Duties tools and SoD software for SAP environments. Discover what makes an effective SoD solution and where MTC Skopos fits in the market landscape.

A complete guide to building and maintaining your SAP Segregation of Duties matrix, with a free downloadable Excel (XLS) template and best practices for automation.

If you've worked in Segregation of Duties remediation, you know the drill. You run your analysis, get a list of conflicts, and then... you're on your own. Most tools are great at telling you what's wrong but figuring out how to fix it is left as an exercise for the reader. We built something different.

The future of SAP security analysis isn't about choosing between specialized tools and AI, it's about using MCP to make specialized tools like Skopos work through AI interfaces.

An access risk report documents the access risks in an ERP landscape — SoD violations, critical access, and over-privileged users — plus recommended remediation. MTC Skopos delivers the underlying risk data as structured models ready for Power BI, Tableau, or any BI tool, so your access risk report reflects your priorities rather than a vendor's fixed template.

Protect your organization from fraud with proper Segregation of Duties. Learn how to distribute critical functions across personnel to eliminate single points of control.

Segregation of duties: Right team working with the right tool, what normally takes weeks of review without the proper tool, we knocked out in a few days.

SAP Access Risk Analysis (ARA) is the process of evaluating user permissions to identify SoD conflicts, critical access, and over-provisioning. MTC Skopos delivers fast, on-premise ARA with step-by-step remediation and flat-rate pricing — an alternative to SAP GRC Access Control, Pathlock, and cloud-based access risk tools.
