SAP ARIBA AND FieldGlass Certificate-based Authentication

141 Views

Hello SAP,

My company have implemented SAP Ariba and FieldGlass and the project went live. The web connection from Ariba to Fieldglass cannot support certificate exchange; hence, under the recommendation of SAP Fieldglass support we have undertaken this connectivity using a shared secret with user account and password. Our Internal IT security team raised a concern that we are using a shared secret and not certificate based model.

SAP Fieldglass support has not indicated a timeframe when they will embark on a certificate exchange capability is what I have been told.

1) Can you please advise if certificate-based authentication is not supported by SAP in the given scenario above?

2) If certificate-based authentication is not currently supported by SAP, what are the future plans (if any) on certificate-based authentication and support from SAP on this scenario?
