SAP Blog
This article discusses how Application Load Balancer (ALB) supports mTLS authentication to enhance security and user experience for SAP workloads on AWS.
- Principal propagation enables single sign-on (SSO) across systems
- Mutual TLS (mTLS) provides two authentication modes: passthrough and verify
- Benefits include improved security, better user experience, and simplified compliance
- Architecture supports authentication through ALB, SAP Web Dispatcher, and SAP instances
- Recommended implementation involves mTLS verify mode with trust store in Amazon S3
