WALLDORF:SAP SE (NYSE: SAP) today announced general availability of the latest version of the SAP Single Sign-On application.
The latest version delivers improvements such as expanding the existing coverage for mobile and cloud scenarios, simplified implementation, and continuous improvement of security protocols based on market requirements.

- Enhanced integration with existing enterprise public key infrastructure (PKI) implementations
- Automated certificate lifecycle management for the SAP NetWeaver Application Server for ABAP
- Expanded single sign-on support for mobile devices
- New encryption-only mode to help ensure continuously secure communications
- New, integrated, secure login web client to easily integrate cloud and on-premise single sign-on scenarios
