Malware detection for HANA plug-in

[Kim29]

Can I use Malware detection on HANA Plug-In?

Hello,
I assume that you are asking for inline scan / entropy analysis because all other malware detection mechanisms do not seem to make sense for databases. No, that feature is not supported for database plugins (including SAP HANA)

Best regards

Are you asking that we would check the content of the SAP HANA databases for malware as the SAP HANA plug-in receives only the SAP HANA database backups? Please share the idea as I think such an attack vector is unknown.

If you backup the SAP HANA server itself with Agents, Cloud, or VM image level backup, then these malware scans are performed.
