Tokenization as a means of securing credit card numbers
Securing payment card numbers is essential in order to maintain compliance with the PCI DSS standards. Native payment card number encryption functionality in most of SAP's products.

Business models and the financial crisis
Every day the financial crisis is the number one item in the news. Most messages are either we are affected as well or we need support. Almost none of current news articles describe the way to overcome within realistic scenarios. The national economies as well as the industries change their business models boundaries only marginal. This approach doesnt suit to the type and size of the impact by the financial crisis. In parallel we already knew that our world is limited and we stress already sustainability in considerable dimensions. The recovery needs other business models and scenarios.
