With a focus on building a high-technology sector, ETS oversees approximately 10,000 end users and manages hardware, software, network services, and systems across multiple agencies. The department is responsible for protecting Wyoming's citizens and their data from cybercriminals, malicious hackers, rogue states, and activists. ETS's mission is to establish a coordinated enterprise information services and technology structure to enhance the ability of state agencies to deliver quality, cost-effective services to Wyoming's citizens.
The Challenge
The Wyoming Department of Enterprise Technology Services (ETS) faced the challenge of safeguarding the state's economy and citizenry from cyber threats while complying with diverse requirements. The legacy antivirus solution was inadequate, missing detections, and impeding end-user productivity. ETS needed a cutting-edge cybersecurity solution that could adapt to evolving threats and provide reliable protection.
The Solution
ETS chose the CrowdStrike Falcon platform to replace its legacy antivirus solution. The Falcon platform's cloud-native architecture and lightweight agent provided seamless and virtually invisible protection, allowing end users to work without interruption. The platform's real-time forensic visibility enabled ETS to identify and mitigate attacks quickly, enhancing productivity and job satisfaction. The Falcon OverWatch managed hunting service provided 24/7 threat monitoring, allowing ETS to be proactive in threat detection and response.

Improving Vending Machine Profitability with the Internet of Things (IoT)
The vending industry is undergoing a sea change, taking advantage of new technologies to go beyond just delivering snacks to creating a new retail location. Intelligent vending machines can be found in many public locations as well as company facilities, selling different types of goods and services, including even computer accessories, gold bars, tickets, and office supplies. With increasing sophistication, they may also provide time- and location-based data pertaining to sales, inventory, and customer preferences. But at the end of the day, vending machine operators know greater profitability is driven by higher sales and lower operating costs.
Case Study
Remote Wellhead Monitoring
Each wellhead was equipped with various sensors and meters that needed to be monitored and controlled from a central HMI, often miles away from the assets in the field. Redundant solar and wind generators were installed at each wellhead to support the electrical needs of the pumpstations, temperature meters, cameras, and cellular modules. In addition to asset management and remote control capabilities, data logging for remote surveillance and alarm notifications was a key demand from the customer. Terra Ferma’s solution needed to be power efficient, reliable, and capable of supporting high-bandwidth data-feeds. They needed a multi-link cellular connection to a central server that sustained reliable and redundant monitoring and control of flow meters, temperature sensors, power supply, and event-logging; including video and image files. This open-standard network needed to interface with the existing SCADA and proprietary network management software.

Driving Digital Transformations for Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices
Diagnostic devices play a vital role in helping to improve healthcare delivery. In fact, an estimated 60 percent of the world’s medical decisions are made with support from in vitrodiagnostics (IVD) solutions, such as those provided by Roche Diagnostics, an industry leader. As the demand for medical diagnostic services grows rapidly in hospitals and clinics across China, so does the market for IVD solutions. In addition, the typically high cost of these diagnostic devices means that comprehensive post-sales services are needed. Wanteed to improve three portions of thr IVD:1. Remotely monitor and manage IVD devices as fixed assets.2. Optimizing device availability with predictive maintenance.3. Recommending the best IVD solution for a customer’s needs.
