| Integrations | RetailNorthstar connects with existing ERP and PLM systems by API or structured import, with bidirectional product data flow. | SAP says IBP connects with on-premise SAP and third-party software and on-demand systems; its documentation describes integration with SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition. |
| Security | Customer data is encrypted in transit with TLS 1.2+ and at rest with AES-256, and production data is not used in development or testing. | SAP’s security guide says customer data is stored in SAP HANA and protected with encryption at rest and in transit by default; customer-controlled encryption requires a separate SAP Key Management Service license. |
