Today, I’m joined by Oumaima Baira, Directrice of Enterprise Security at Deloitte.
With nearly a decade of experience, she’s helped organizations strengthen their defenses — from DevSecOps and SAP application security to enterprise-wide security strategy.
She began her career in cloud engineering before moving into cyber consulting, and quickly rose through Deloitte’s leadership ranks, blending deep technical expertise with strategic vision.
Beyond her professional roles, Oumaima is an active member of the cybersecurity community. She often takes part in OWASP France chapter meetups, where we met, and international OWASP and cyber events, sharing insights and learning from peers.
She’s also a passionate advocate for women in cybersecurity, inspiring the next generation of cyber leaders to step confidently into the field.
In this episode, we explore the unique challenges and security risks of SAP systems — a business management and automation platform relied on by countless global organizations. We discuss why understanding business logic is critical to application security, and why this is especially important when it comes to securing SAP.
Oumaima also shares her perspective on global differences in security maturity and offers practical advice on preparing for crisis management with efficiency.
