GRC ERM not running a risk anlaysis

Hey,
I'm having some trouble getting ERM to run a risk analysis... RAR and ERM are sitting on the same server. However, I still have a user ID with RAR and ERM admin rights,, but ERM is not communicating properly with RAR. ERM is also not showing an error in the job log.I keep attempting to get ERM to run a risk analysis, but it seems like its running in a loop. Has anyone else ran into this issue? Here is the log.

Hello Phillip
Can we double check the connector that is being used to communicate between system ?
Kindly check note no : 1136690 - Failed to perform Risk Analysis in ERM.In this note error message is different but still it would good option to double check connector name .
Also I would like to know which version/Service pack of GRC you are using .
I would recommend to Import the latest Initial .XML files into the application.
Importantly, these .XML files have to be in-SYNC with the Support Pack level of the ERM application installed.
Example: You have ERM 5.3 SP10, make sure you download the Initial Data files for the same Support Pack, SP10 from SAP Service Market Place (SMP).
Location on SMP:
Downloads =>SAP Support Packages =>Entry by Application Group =>SAP Solutions for Governance, Risk and Compliance =>SAP GRC Access Control =>SAP GRC ACCESS CONTROL =>SAP GRC ACCESS CONTROL 5.3 =>Entry by Component =>JAVA-Components.
Look for the folder or link "SAP GRC ACCESS CONTROL 5.3 TXT".
This folder contains the Initial Data files for all the Business Objects Access Control applications. Extract the files for ERM (folder name RE) and import into the ERM application as a Post Installation step.
Steps to Import the files:
Go to Configuration =>Initial System Data. Import the files with appropriate option:
1. RE_init_clean_and_insert_data.xml - "Clean and Insert" option.
2. RE_init_append_data.xml - "Append" option.
Do let us update about the status of this issue ?
Thanks & Regards
Asheesh

Is Bitdefender safe? If not, what security risks do I run?

Is Bitdefender safe? If not, what security risks do I run?

Mac users often ask whether they should install "anti-virus" (AV) software. The usual answer is "no." That answer is right, but it may give the wrong impression that there is no threat from what are loosely called "viruses." There is a threat, and you need to educate yourself about it.
1. This is a comment on what you should—and should not—do to protect yourself from malicious software ("malware") that circulates on the Internet and gets onto a computer as an unintended consequence of the user's actions.
It does not apply to software, such as keystroke loggers, that may be installed deliberately by an intruder who has hands-on access to the computer, or who has been able to take control of it remotely. That threat is in a different category, and there's no easy way to defend against it. AV software is not intended to, and does not, defend against such attacks.
The comment is long because the issue is complex. The key points are in sections 5, 6, and 10.
OS X now implements three layers of built-in protection specifically against malware, not counting runtime protections such as execute disable, sandboxing, system library randomization, and address space layout randomization that may also guard against other kinds of exploits.
2. All versions of OS X since 10.6.7 have been able to detect known Mac malware in downloaded files, and to block insecure web plugins. This feature is transparent to the user. Internally Apple calls it "XProtect."
The malware recognition database used by XProtect is automatically updated; however, you shouldn't rely on it, because the attackers are always at least a day ahead of the defenders.
The following caveats apply to XProtect:
☞ It can be bypassed by some third-party networking software, such as BitTorrent clients and Java applets.
☞ It only applies to software downloaded from the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not checked.
As new versions of OS X are released, it's not clear whether Apple will indefinitely continue to maintain the XProtect database of older versions such as 10.6. The security of obsolete system versions may eventually be degraded. Security updates to the code of obsolete systems will stop being released at some point, and that may leave them open to other kinds of attack besides malware.
3. Starting with OS X 10.7.5, there has been a second layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications and Installer packages downloaded from the network will only run if they're digitally signed by a developer with a certificate issued by Apple. Software certified in this way hasn't been checked for security by Apple unless it comes from the App Store, but you can be reasonably sure that it hasn't been modified by anyone other than the developer. His identity is known to Apple, so he could be held legally responsible if he distributed malware. That may not mean much if the developer lives in a country with a weak legal system (see below.)
Gatekeeper doesn't depend on a database of known malware. It has, however, the same limitations as XProtect, and in addition the following:
☞ It can easily be disabled or overridden by the user.
☞ A malware attacker could get control of a code-signing certificate under false pretenses, or could simply ignore the consequences of distributing codesigned malware.
☞ An App Store developer could find a way to bypass Apple's oversight, or the oversight could fail due to human error.
Apple has taken far too long to revoke the codesigning certificates of some known abusers, thereby diluting the value of Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. Those lapses don't involve App Store products, however.
For the reasons given, App Store products, and—to a lesser extent—other applications recognized by Gatekeeper as signed, are safer than others, but they can't be considered absolutely safe. "Sandboxed" applications may prompt for access to private data, such as your contacts, or for access to the network. Think before granting that access. Sandbox security is based on user input. Never click through any request for authorization without thinking.
4. Starting with OS X 10.8.3, a third layer of protection has been added: a "Malware Removal Tool" (MRT). MRT runs automatically in the background when you update the OS. It checks for, and removes, malware that may have evaded the other protections via a Java exploit (see below.) MRT also runs when you install or update the Apple-supplied Java runtime (but not the Oracle runtime.) Like XProtect, MRT is effective against known threats, but not against unknown ones. It notifies you if it finds malware, but otherwise there's no user interface to MRT.
5. The built-in security features of OS X reduce the risk of malware attack, but they are not, and never will be, complete protection. Malware is a problem of human behavior, not machine behavior, and no technological fix alone is going to solve it. Trusting software to protect you will only make you more vulnerable.
The best defense is always going to be your own intelligence. With the possible exception of Java exploits, all known malware circulating on the Internet that affects a fully-updated installation of OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "Trojan horses," which can only have an effect if the victim is duped into running them. The threat therefore amounts to a battle of wits between you and Internet criminals. If you're better informed than they think you are, you'll win. That means, in practice, that you always stay within a safe harbor of computing practices. How do you know when you're leaving the safe harbor? Below are some warning signs of danger.
Software from an untrustworthy source
☞ Software with a corporate brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, doesn't come directly from the developer’s website. Do not trust an alert from any website to update Flash, or your browser, or any other software. A genuine alert that Flash is outdated and blocked is shown on this support page. Follow the instructions on the support page in that case. Otherwise, assume that the alert is fake and someone is trying to scam you into installing malware. If you see such alerts on more than one website, ask for instructions.
☞ Software of any kind is distributed via BitTorrent, or Usenet, or on a website that also distributes pirated music or movies.
☞ Rogue websites such as Softonic, Soft32, and CNET Download distribute free applications that have been packaged in a superfluous "installer."
☞ The software is advertised by means of spam or intrusive web ads. Any ad, on any site, that includes a direct link to a download should be ignored.
Software that is plainly illegal or does something illegal
☞ High-priced commercial software such as Photoshop is "cracked" or "free."
☞ An application helps you to infringe copyright, for instance by circumventing the copy protection on commercial software, or saving streamed media for reuse without permission. All "YouTube downloaders" are in this category, though not all are necessarily malicious.
Conditional or unsolicited offers from strangers
☞ A telephone caller or a web page tells you that you have a “virus” and offers to help you remove it. (Some reputable websites did legitimately warn visitors who were infected with the "DNSChanger" malware. That exception to this rule no longer applies.)
☞ A web site offers free content such as video or music, but to use it you must install a “codec,” “plug-in,” "player," "downloader," "extractor," or “certificate” that comes from that same site, or an unknown one.
☞ You win a prize in a contest you never entered.
☞ Someone on a message board such as this one is eager to help you, but only if you download an application of his choosing.
☞ A "FREE WI-FI !!!" network advertises itself in a public place such as an airport, but is not provided by the management.
☞ Anything online that you would expect to pay for is "free."
Unexpected events
☞ A file is downloaded automatically when you visit a web page, with no other action on your part. Delete any such file without opening it.
☞ You open what you think is a document and get an alert that it's "an application downloaded from the Internet." Click Cancel and delete the file. Even if you don't get the alert, you should still delete any file that isn't what you expected it to be.
☞ An application does something you don't expect, such as asking for permission to access your contacts, your location, or the Internet for no obvious reason.
☞ Software is attached to email that you didn't request, even if it comes (or seems to come) from someone you trust.
I don't say that leaving the safe harbor just once will necessarily result in disaster, but making a habit of it will weaken your defenses against malware attack. Any of the above scenarios should, at the very least, make you uncomfortable.
6. Java on the Web (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it's not related, despite the similarity of the names) is a weak point in the security of any system. Java is, among other things, a platform for running complex applications in a web page, on the client. That was always a bad idea, and Java's developers have proven themselves incapable of implementing it without also creating a portal for malware to enter. Past Java exploits are the closest thing there has ever been to a Windows-style virus affecting OS X. Merely loading a page with malicious Java content could be harmful.
Fortunately, client-side Java on the Web is obsolete and mostly extinct. Only a few outmoded sites still use it. Try to hasten the process of extinction by avoiding those sites, if you have a choice. Forget about playing games or other non-essential uses of Java.
Java is not included in OS X 10.7 and later. Discrete Java installers are distributed by Apple and by Oracle (the developer of Java.) Don't use either one unless you need it. Most people don't. If Java is installed, disable it—not JavaScript—in your browsers.
Regardless of version, experience has shown that Java on the Web can't be trusted. If you must use a Java applet for a task on a specific site, enable Java only for that site in Safari. Never enable Java for a public website that carries third-party advertising. Use it only on well-known, login-protected, secure websites without ads. In Safari 6 or later, you'll see a padlock icon in the address bar when visiting a secure site.
Stay within the safe harbor, and you’ll be as safe from malware as you can practically be. The rest of this comment concerns what you should not do to protect yourself.
7. Never install any commercial AV or "Internet security" products for the Mac, as they are all worse than useless. If you need to be able to detect Windows malware in your files, use one of the free security apps in the Mac App Store—nothing else.
Why shouldn't you use commercial AV products?
☞ To recognize malware, the software depends on a database of known threats, which is always at least a day out of date. This technique is a proven failure, as a major AV software vendor has admitted. Most attacks are "zero-day"—that is, previously unknown. Recognition-based AV does not defend against such attacks, and the enterprise IT industry is coming to the realization that traditional AV software is worthless.
☞ Its design is predicated on the nonexistent threat that malware may be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; it doesn't materialize from nowhere. In order to meet that nonexistent threat, commercial AV software modifies or duplicates low-level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a common cause of instability, bugs, and poor performance.
☞ By modifying the operating system, the software may also create weaknesses that could be exploited by malware attackers.
☞ Most importantly, a false sense of security is dangerous.
8. An AV product from the App Store, such as "ClamXav," has the same drawback as the commercial suites of being always out of date, but it does not inject low-level code into the operating system. That doesn't mean it's entirely harmless. It may report email messages that have "phishing" links in the body, or Windows malware in attachments, as infected files, and offer to delete or move them. Doing so will corrupt the Mail database. The messages should be deleted from within the Mail application.
An AV app is not needed, and cannot be relied upon, for protection against OS X malware. It's useful, if at all, only for detecting Windows malware, and even for that use it's not really effective, because new Windows malware is emerging much faster than OS X malware.
Windows malware can't harm you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows.) Just don't pass it on to anyone else. A malicious attachment in email is usually easy to recognize by the name alone. An actual example:
London Terror Moovie.avi [124 spaces] Checked By Norton Antivirus.exe
You don't need software to tell you that's a Windows trojan. Software may be able to tell you which trojan it is, but who cares? In practice, there's no reason to use recognition software unless an organizational policy requires it. Windows malware is so widespread that you should assume it's in every email attachment until proven otherwise. Nevertheless, ClamXav or a similar product from the App Store may serve a purpose if it satisfies an ill-informed network administrator who says you must run some kind of AV application. It's free and it won't handicap the system.
The ClamXav developer won't try to "upsell" you to a paid version of the product. Other developers may do that. Don't be upsold. For one thing, you should not pay to protect Windows users from the consequences of their choice of computing platform. For another, a paid upgrade from a free app will probably have all the disadvantages mentioned in section 7.
9. It seems to be a common belief that the built-in Application Firewall acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents malware from functioning. It does neither. It blocks inbound connections to certain network services you're running, such as file sharing. It's disabled by default and you should leave it that way if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate it only when you're on an untrusted network, for instance a public Wi-Fi hotspot, where you don't want to provide services. Disable any services you don't use in the Sharing preference pane. All are disabled by default.
10. As a Mac user, you don't have to live in fear that your computer may be infected every time you install software, read email, or visit a web page. But neither can you assume that you will always be safe from exploitation, no matter what you do. Navigating the Internet is like walking the streets of a big city. It can be as safe or as dangerous as you choose to make it. The greatest harm done by security software is precisely its selling point: it makes people feel safe. They may then feel safe enough to take risks from which the software doesn't protect them. Nothing can lessen the need for safe computing practices.

No result /report when weu00B4re running a risk analysis in background

Dear forum,
We are running several risk analysis in background (from configuration tab) and we cannot see any result
in the column called "result". However, when we run a offline analysis (from informer tab) we can see that the column "result" is containing a file.
Hope you can help us.
Thanks in advance.

Running risk analysis in background from the configuration tab does not produce a report by design. This background job is really just performing a system maintenence activity and is not intended for report generation. This background job preps data for performing offline analysis as well as the underlying data that supports the management reports in the informer tab (among other things). Generally, anything in the configuration tab is system maintenance related.
It sounds like you're attempting to perform typical analysis of end user access, not system maintenance activities. The informer tab is what you need to be using to perform the analysis.
Within the informer tab, whether you choose to perform online analysis or offline analysis, a report result is always generated. In my experience, there has not been a compelling reason to use offline analysis capabilities within the informer tab. Online analysis (real-time analysis of the SAP system rather than the offline data from the last configuration tab background risk analysis) is naturally always current, which is a plus.

RAR5.3 - SoD Report Not Showing Full Risk Description

Hello,
In a Sandbox environment, I'm playing around with/testing a new ruleset. The environment has our Production ruleset and I've added some risks to this ruleset via file upload in Configuration. The risks look great. Both the description and detailed description got imported correctly. The rules generated perfectly for these new risks I uploaded. Everything related to the risk, the way the risk is built, the rules, looks perfect. When I run Risk Analysis on test users that I know have the risk, they show on the report just as expected. However, the risk "description" is essentially missing. For example, in Management Summary View, here is what Risk B001* looks like:
B001: Basis Development & System Administration
Medium Basis TEST_USER(TEST_USER) USSPCJH40_E3
I've bolded the Risk Description.
However, here is what one of my new risks shows up like (F031, a risk we haven't put in production yet for various reasons):
F031: F031
Medium Finance TEST_USER(TEST_USER) USSPCJH40_E3
The Risk Description only says "F031." It still is hyperlinked so it still works, but I want to see the full Risk Description, obviously. When I look at the Risk in Rule Architect, both descriptions are there.
I then extracted the Rules via Rule Export and looked in the VIRSA_CC_RISKT table - the F031 description is there!
B001 (which looks fine) and F031 (which has the description missing) has entries in ALL of the same tables (unless there's a table that I'm not getting with the export?)
Can anyone help me out? Has anyone experienced a similiar issue? Why would all my newly imported risks not show a Risk Description when running Risk Analysis?
Thanks in advance!

Interactive reporting service1 not running

Hi All,
Whenever i try to logon to Workspace i am getting this message "Could not find a Hyperion Reporting and Analysis - System 9 server running on <servername> at port 6800. Please verify your server connect string and confirm that the server is up."
Earlier i was able to log on to workspace without any error. I tried to track down the error and found that "Hyperion S9 BI+ Interactive reporting Service" is not running. I tried to run it both from front and back end but it is not getting started.
I then tried to re-configue it with shared service but it is getting failed now. The configerr log says

Hi, Check the Core Services exists. If not you might have to reconfigure the Reporting and Anlaysis services again.

Login wizard - CF9 server - "Coldfusion not is not running on the remote site" - YES it is!

I use Dreamweaver to upkeep sites for several friends and clients. When I use the login wizzard on a server with CF8, it works fine. If I use it on a server with CF9, I can't get past the *Coldfusion not is not running on the remote site* error. Yes it is running. I've tried connecting using FTP, RDS, directly over the network - you name it. Same error.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Rick

Hi Rick
If you are trying to RDS log in to a remote server the host may have disabled this service... Most do, and should. Allowing remote RDS is a potential security risk. Check with your host to see if this is the case. If it is, it is always better to duplicate your host environment locally, that is be running CF9, and the database, be that MySQL, SQL Server, Access, or whatever locally and do all you development and testing there, then just upload the files when ready.
Hope this helps.

Endpoint Protection Client not running run scheduled scan

Hi,
We are running SCCM 2012 R2 CU1 on our site system and clients, having upgraded from SCCM 2012 sp1 12 months ago.
A few of our clients will not run a scheduled scan, even though it displays the Scan date and time in the client properties.
Someome did create a new EP policy and pointed the clients at it, but that didn't fix this problem.
The AV engine and AV definitions are upto date and the real time monitor is running.
In the SCCM console, Active Clients at Risk, the client has Endpoint Protection Enabled showing as Disabled, nothing in the Endpoint Protection Engine Version, nothing for Last Full Scan Start Time, Endpoint Protection Pending Full Scan - No.

In Example Finder, I can't open the example, error: server not running

It say's the web server is not running when I try to click into any examples. It's installed under academic license 12.0.1.f3

Hello,
Does this issue only occur when you are logged on to the Domain? In other words, if you donot log on to the network does the example finder work correctly then? If so then you probably have to ask your System Administrator to allow access for the NI System Web server in your Firewall.
A good resource for finding out what ports should be opened in the Firewaal to have NI SW work correctly is:

Dreamweaver (part of CS6) will not run on 64 bit Windows 8 PC

This package ran okay on my Windows 7 64 bit PC. I upgraded the Windows 7 PC to 64 bit Windows 8. Reinstalled all software including CS6. Dreamweaver will not start and comes up with a Error 7b. I have updated all the drivers including the graphics card. It seems that all CS6 programs that load up in a 32 bit mode are suspect in Windows 8. I have downloaded and updated all Adobe programs but still a problem. Looking for ideas as Adobe help is only Monday to Friday.

When you upgraded Win7 to Win8, was that process itself a clean install - meaning did you reformat the hard drive (or use a separate hard drive) thereby installing a fresh copy of Win 8?
I recently upgraded to Win 8 64bit as well, and from Win7 64bit, but I didn't want to run the risk of loosing access to any of my Win7 Apps or files should I find Win8 unbearable, so I ran the upgrade on a separate hard drive, which gave me the option to boot into either 7 or 8. Actually, Vista is on a third drive, left over from my Win7 upgrade in 2009. ;-)
I'm about 3 weeks in, and so far I have had no problems at all with any CS6 app on Windows 8. 8 seems faster, more responsive, but that could be because it's a new installation.

Startup error message - Could not run this script because of a disk error.

I uninstalled Dates-to-iCal-Launcher and couldn't find any info about how to uninstall it online (just dragged the icon from Applications to the Trash). Now every time I start my iBook, I get an error message from Dates-to-iCal Launcher (there is an icon that looks like a scroll on the left):
Could not run this script because of a disk error.
-43
How do I get rid of this error message? It happens every time I turn on the computer. Thank you!

thanks for the update.
there is no risk when changing settings in any OS user interface like System Preferences etc.
there could be some risk in manually deleting files from Library folders, which is done sometimes to uninstall applications.
keep in mind to regularly back up important files.

Mitigation not showing in Risk Analysis

I have migitated a role and can see the mitigation on the Mitigation tab under Mitigated Roles. I wanted to run a Risk Analysis on the role to make sure the mitigation is in my reports and they not showing.
I have checked my settings on the configuration tab under "Risk Analysis" on "Exclued Mitigated Risk" and it's set to "No". I run my reports in the Infomer Tab > Risk Analysis > Role Analysis and the Report Type is at the permission level and under "More Options" the "Ignore Migitation" is set to "No".
I have reran my "sync" jobs and management reports in the order they should be ran and they are still not showing up. The migitation is not showing up in my management reports either. I am on SP9.
Is there anything else I'm missing?

I answered my own question on this.

Received an error "Unhandled error; n/a in GRC ERM 53 GRCPINW and GRCPIERP

I had an issue in GRC ERM 5.3. I could search for a transaction but if I tried to add it, the transaction screen was empty, although we did receive an error "Unhandled error; n/a" which was displayed at the top of the screen.
I got reply from Basis team saying like
Case Solution :
notes can not be implemented:
1441463 - already implemented (SP05)
1514051 - can not be implemented (only for VIRRE / not available in YRS)
1443612 - already implemented (SP12)
1452772 - already implemented (SP12)
no action done
And Basis team installed GRCPINW and GRCPIERP SP6 components in My backend system last two months back.
Can you please suggest me , Is still Require VIRSAHR and VIRSANH componets for use GRC ERM5.3 if still having GRCPINW adn GRCPIERP SP6 components
And one more thing is Can i ask to basis team to implement 1514051 note into backend system.?
Thanks and Regards,

Hello,
Maybe I'm not getting your point, but you said you installed GRCPINW and GRCPIERP. Are you using GRC10 ???
Are you planing to upgrade to GRC10? in this case, you might want to check here Note 1590030 - GRC10 Plug-in & 5.3 VIRSA Plug-in (RTA) Co-Existence.
And... what's your SAP_BASIS release and SP?
Cheers,
Diego.

Profiler Server not running

I am running Data Services 3.1 on a Windows 2003 server environment. Everything is installed and configured, but the Profiler Server is down. I have created a Profiler Repository, associated it with a Job Server (which is running other jobs successfully), have set up Profile User in the Management Console, registered the Profiler Repo in the Console, but that annoying little red x stays on the Profiler Icon on the bottom of Designer (Profiler Server localhost:28080 is not running).
Help? I cannot find any documentation that speaks to actual Profiler Server- just the Admin.

check the webapps directory of tomcat, if you have installed BOE also on the tomcat, it would have used the same tomcat, check for folder named DataServices under tomcat55/webapps
Check for tomcat55 folder in the business Objects home example:-
C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat55
did you restart the tomcat service after installing BOE, what is port on which BOE is running
Check if you see anything the web_admin.log files in the %LINK_DIR%\log folder
The simple option would be to reinstall DS, which will detect the BOE Tomcat and install the DataServices on that
or
you need to manually deploy the DataServices (at your own risk)
replace the BO_HOME with BO installation folder (C:\Program Files\Business Objects), run the following commands
make sure the tomcat is running
"BO_HOME\deployment/wdeploy.bat" tomcat55 -DAPP=webservice undeploy
"BO_HOME\deployment/wdeploy.bat" tomcat55 -DAPP=doc undeploy
"BO_HOME\deployment/wdeploy.bat" tomcat55 -DAPP=DataServices undeploy
"BO_HOME\deployment/wdeploy.bat" tomcat55 -DAPP=webservice deploy
"BO_HOME\deployment/wdeploy.bat" tomcat55 -DAPP=doc deploy
"BO_HOME\deployment/wdeploy.bat" tomcat55 -DAPP=DataServices deploy

GRC ERM

Hi ,
Can you please let me know how to download roles in mass from SAP in text format to upload it in GRC ERM?
Please help.
Thanking you in advance.
Regards
MK

In your ABAP system, use SA38 and run transaction /VIRSA/RE_DNLDROLES.
You'll end up with 3 files that you can use for the mass upload to ERM.
