Securing messages in XI..How?

[Former Member]

Hi,

Our client currently looking for securing message in XI.As client concern other than developer no one can able to see the message payload in sxmb_moni.

Can you tell me what are the possible ways to secure maessages in XI3.0 SP14.

As per our plan ,Our scenario : SAPHR(IDOC)->XI--> Secure FTP(CSV)

We have plan to extract Employee records from SAPHR through IDOC and sending as CSV format to SFTP. For this, how do we secure or encrypt data from SAPHR. As we know we do not use IDOC sender adapter for this sender side. So we do not have chance to use module level security .Please let me know is there any other ways for make secure as payload from SAPHR-IDOC?

Other thing is receiver side, as i know SAP doesn't support SecureFTP , how we will post csv files into SFTP? Does ftp(file) adapter required any additional settings ? also required notes or comments for securing messages at receiver side?

Last but least: For this scenario how do we achieve exceptions for each and every level?

Please do share your experience and get best rewards for that,.

Appreciated your time and thanks in advance.

Thanks,

PILearn.

Hi,

You can control SXMB_MONI transaction using User profiles & Roles or dont give the authorisations of this transactions to users. you can also use SU53 to determine the values of authorisation objects & thus you can control SXMB_MONI.

On receiver side you can try with FTPS as XI supports to it.

You can configure Alert Management for handling exceptions or erros in XI.
