Is RFC Secure ?

Former Member — Tue, 22 May 2007 02:04:30 GMT

We are planning to build an interface from an non-SAP system to SAP. The non-SAP system can talk to SAP using RFC. One of the requirements of this interface is to secure the communication channel or encrypt the data because it is sensitive in nature. This is NOT an external (B2B) communication. The non-SAPsystem does NOT support SNC. Does anyone know what kind of security features does plain RFC offer? Is all the data in a RFC call encrypted?

- Webservices have SSL feature

- don't know about RFC --> encrypt the data yourself and decrypt at arrival ?

good luck,

Rolf
