In this joint interview, SAP and Wibu-Systems explain how entitlement management and licensing protection work hand-in-hand to empower ISVs and device manufacturers.Key takeaways include:

• Why SAP Entitlement Management (EMS) is central to SAP’s Suite-as-a-Service strategy and the quote-to-cash process.
• How EMS defines rights and entitlements — from licenses and maintenance to warranties and subscriptions — with unique flexibility.
• How CodeMeter complements EMS by enforcing entitlements on the end-user side, protecting against piracy, tampering, and reverse engineering.
• Why the automation industry benefits from EMS + CodeMeter with secure licensing in fully isolated environments.
• How the combined system supports compliance with the upcoming EU Cyber Resilience Act, addressing integrity, authentication, data protection, and license traceability.

Together, SAP and Wibu-Systems deliver a seamless, end-to-end entitlement and licensing solution, bridging sales, provisioning, and fulfillment — while safeguarding digital products for a secure future.
