关于客户
客户是一家全球物流供应商，其仓库和数据中心遍布全球。他们是世界上最大的物流公司之一，其运营涉及不同供应商、仓库、配送中心、承运商、货运代理、进口商和出口商之间的合作。他们的网络连接必须能够处理大量波动的流量，并具有在发生中断时生存所需的弹性。客户老化的网络安全设备无法提供对其高度分布式网络的大量可视性。他们需要一种支持集中管理、提供有关其网络上正在发生的事情的详细见解并提供强大报告功能的解决方案。
挑战
一家全球物流供应商正在寻求多协议标签交换 (MPLS) 服务的替代方案。客户希望通过将应用程序迁移到云来提高员工的工作效率并降低成本；但是，这样做会产生大量额外的流量，这些流量必须回传到数据中心。这不可避免地会导致延迟和用户体验不佳。添加额外的 MPLS 线路需要数月才能实施，而且成本高昂，尤其是考虑到位置众多时。同时，客户老化的网络安全设备无法提供对其高度分散的网络的大量可视性。由于仓库和数据中心遍布全球 - 其中大多数没有现场技术团队 - 任何新的网络安全部署都必须支持集中管理，提供有关其网络上正在发生的事情的详细见解，并提供强大的报告功能。作为世界上最大的物流公司之一，客户需要最好的安全效力来保持业务连续性并继续履行他们对客户的承诺。
解决方案
在考虑了多家供应商后，客户将选择范围缩小到两个概念验证 (POC) 机会。在 POC 结束时，很明显，具有安全 SD-WAN 的 Forcepoint NGFW 最适合他们的需求。SD-WAN 允许客户通过向每个远程仓库添加低成本宽带线路将每个位置直接连接到互联网。Forcepoint SMC 中的可视化工具为他们提供了以前缺乏的网络的宝贵见解。当客户得知 Forcepoint NGFW 在过去几年的第三方测试中获得了业界最高的安全效率分数时，客户的信心也增强了。Forcepoint 1000 系列机架式 NGFW 部署在客户的数据中心位置，Forcepoint 300 系列桌面 NGFW 安装在每个仓库。零接触部署允许在每个远程位置快速完成新防火墙的安装，而无需现场技术人员。每个实施都在两个节点集群中完成，以实现负载平衡和冗余，并启用了深度数据包检查的入侵防御。设备上配置了安全的 SD-WAN，允许客户同时使用多种网络技术，包括 MPLS、宽带互联网线路和卫星。

Case Study
Remote Temperature Monitoring of Perishable Goods Saves Money
RMONI was facing temperature monitoring challenges in a cold chain business. A cold chain must be established and maintained to ensure goods have been properly refrigerated during every step of the process, making temperature monitoring a critical business function. Manual registration practice can be very costly, labor intensive and prone to mistakes.
Case Study
Hospital Inventory Management
The hospital supply chain team is responsible for ensuring that the right medical supplies are readily available to clinicians when and where needed, and to do so in the most efficient manner possible. However, many of the systems and processes in use at the cancer center for supply chain management were not best suited to support these goals. Barcoding technology, a commonly used method for inventory management of medical supplies, is labor intensive, time consuming, does not provide real-time visibility into inventory levels and can be prone to error. Consequently, the lack of accurate and real-time visibility into inventory levels across multiple supply rooms in multiple hospital facilities creates additional inefficiency in the system causing over-ordering, hoarding, and wasted supplies. Other sources of waste and cost were also identified as candidates for improvement. Existing systems and processes did not provide adequate security for high-cost inventory within the hospital, which was another driver of cost. A lack of visibility into expiration dates for supplies resulted in supplies being wasted due to past expiry dates. Storage of supplies was also a key consideration given the location of the cancer center’s facilities in a dense urban setting, where space is always at a premium. In order to address the challenges outlined above, the hospital sought a solution that would provide real-time inventory information with high levels of accuracy, reduce the level of manual effort required and enable data driven decision making to ensure that the right supplies were readily available to clinicians in the right location at the right time.

IoT-based Fleet Intelligence Innovation
Speed to market is precious for DRVR, a rapidly growing start-up company. With a business model dependent on reliable mobile data, managers were spending their lives trying to negotiate data roaming deals with mobile network operators in different countries. And, even then, service quality was a constant concern.
Case Study
Vehicle Fleet Analytics
Organizations frequently implement a maintenance strategy for their fleets of vehicles using a combination of time and usage based maintenance schedules. While effective as a whole, time and usage based schedules do not take into account driving patterns, environmental factors, and sensors currently deployed within the vehicle measuring crank voltage, ignition voltage, and acceleration, all of which have a significant influence on the overall health of the vehicle.In a typical fleet, a large percentage of road calls are related to electrical failure, with battery failure being a common cause. Battery failures result in unmet service agreement levels and costly re-adjustment of scheduled to provide replacement vehicles. To reduce the impact of unplanned maintenance, the transportation logistics company was interested in a trial of C3 Vehicle Fleet Analytics.
