Metasploit vs. Onapsis

In security of information it's vital to think like a hacker and it's important to know the tools they use for attacks. So this software gives you the exploits that are already in the wild and to the access of everyone. That's very dangerous so you have to be aware of it.

As a user, I would recommend Onapsis for people who are shorthanded in security or basis teams. One thing to be clear is that this is not a cheap product but still every penny counts here. If your SAP system has multiple products and connections then Onapsis is a great tool.

Incentivized

• Scanning our network for new or existing vulnerable systems.
• Automation of manual tests and exploits to allow what used to be days of effort to be squeezed into hours.
• Metasploit has become an integral part in our validation of new systems before their inclusion in our production network.

Incentivized

• Eliminating the manual process improves the overall accuracy of results and also frees up valuable resources to focus on other different projects.
• Onapsis provides great leverage to our technical teams in order to review in a standardized way of the landscape.
• Onapsis always matches vulnerabilities with useful context and finds possible solutions.
• Onapsis is usually implemented to continuously monitor, and alert us on any issues on the SAP systems. Not only this but implementing Onapsis also eliminates the network on the year-end and month-end audits and helps in making the overall process faster, smooth, efficient as well as accurate.

Incentivized

• If Metasploit could support payloads written in languages other than Ruby, that would be amazing and could help draw in a larger set of contributors.

Incentivized

• Multiple UIs
• No proper customization of UI log-off
• Tedious setup of Control component
• No proper error messages received

There are other tools which we have compared with Onapsis,

1. SAP ETD
2. SAP CVA
3. SecurityBridge

These tools along with the highlighted ones in the above list do not cover all components of Onapsis and as far as we have seen, there is no tool providing the same competencies. It provides good insights, and is constantly updating. On top of that Onapsis Research Labs constantly contributes towards SAP Patch Tuesday regarding multiple "Hot News" vulnerabilities.

Incentivized

• We have been able to weed out false positives with a more manual vetting of scanned vulnerabilities.
• Our teams have become more well versed in penetration testing with Metasploit to understand the vulnerabilities potentially present.

Incentivized

• Helps in automating the regulatory compliances
• Increases productivity by freeing resources in the firm
• Provides better protection for sensitive information
• Tedious to implement
• Time difference between the ERP systems and Onapsis Appliances may cause an issue
• Difficult to troubleshoot as error messages are not clear
