Release Notes

Introduction 

The release notes provide brief and high-level descriptions of the new features of HaloCORE. Before installing HaloCORE, it is recommended to read the release notes to understand any current limitations or bugs that may apply to this version of the software.

Product Description

Information that resides inside SAP is downloaded regularly by users to generate reports, spreadsheets, presentations, and other documents. Sensitive data about your company's financials, products, partners, and clients become vulnerable and exposed.

HaloCORE for NetWeaver Add-On intercepts each data download from SAP, classifies the information, applies classification labels and strong encryption while enforcing access rights and usage policies. It uses the HaloENGINE Service, combined with a Microsoft technology called Microsoft Purview Information Protection (MPIP), to apply protection to the downloaded data. All download activity is aggregated into a fully customizable audit log, which can be integrated into the company's existing analytics framework and extracted to powerful tools such as SAP Business Intelligence and Analytics solutions.
