关于客户
The customer is a world-class apparel business operating multiple enterprises under multiple brands. The company operates multiple brick-and-mortar enterprises using a complex patchwork of systems for identity management across its Unix, Linux, and Windows systems. The company created a new division to handle consolidated online sales for all its enterprises. The company was having difficulty complying with the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard due to the complexity and non-integration of their systems. The company also needed to address issues of inefficiency due to the difficulty of maintaining continuity for their day-to-day work with multiple account IDs and passwords across the enterprise.
挑战
A leading retail clothing company was operating multiple brick-and-mortar enterprises using a complex patchwork of systems for identity management across its Unix, Linux, and Windows systems. When the company created a new division to handle consolidated online sales for all its enterprises, the complexity of their systems came to a head. The online division was having difficulty complying with the Payment Card Industry (PCI) Data Security Standard. The problem was that the organizations has too many different operating systems, domains, and directory services made it impossible to manage user ID and passwords systematically. The company also needed to address issues of inefficiency. For the end users, engineers and developers, it’s very difficult to maintain continuity for their day-to-day work with multiple account IDs and passwords across the enterprise.
解决方案
The company undertook an identity management initiative with the twin goals of (1) complying with the PCI standard and (2) reducing the complexities of user administration. They began their strategic evaluation process by considering do-it-yourself solutions built around password synchronization and identity replication. However, the complexities of creating a solution from scratch were daunting, and the end result would be questionable. The company wanted to simplify, not over-engineer its directory services. So they went to the marketplace in search of solutions. After considering alternative directory services, the company chose BeyondTrust’s PowerBroker Identity Services in part because they already had experience and confidence using Active Directory. PBIS enabled the company to integrate all their different systems — from Unix data centers and proprietary applications to Windows, Linux, and Mac workstations — into a single domain with consolidated DNS and a structured AD.

Case Study
Improving Production Line Efficiency with Ethernet Micro RTU Controller
Moxa was asked to provide a connectivity solution for one of the world's leading cosmetics companies. This multinational corporation, with retail presence in 130 countries, 23 global braches, and over 66,000 employees, sought to improve the efficiency of their production process by migrating from manual monitoring to an automatic productivity monitoring system. The production line was being monitored by ABB Real-TPI, a factory information system that offers data collection and analysis to improve plant efficiency. Due to software limitations, the customer needed an OPC server and a corresponding I/O solution to collect data from additional sensor devices for the Real-TPI system. The goal is to enable the factory information system to more thoroughly collect data from every corner of the production line. This will improve its ability to measure Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) and translate into increased production efficiencies. System Requirements • Instant status updates while still consuming minimal bandwidth to relieve strain on limited factory networks • Interoperable with ABB Real-TPI • Small form factor appropriate for deployment where space is scarce • Remote software management and configuration to simplify operations

Case Study
Digital Retail Security Solutions
Sennco wanted to help its retail customers increase sales and profits by developing an innovative alarm system as opposed to conventional connected alarms that are permanently tethered to display products. These traditional security systems were cumbersome and intrusive to the customer shopping experience. Additionally, they provided no useful data or analytics.

How Sirqul’s IoT Platform is Crafting Carrefour’s New In-Store Experiences
Carrefour Taiwan’s goal is to be completely digital by end of 2018. Out-dated manual methods for analysis and assumptions limited Carrefour’s ability to change the customer experience and were void of real-time decision-making capabilities. Rather than relying solely on sales data, assumptions, and disparate systems, Carrefour Taiwan’s CEO led an initiative to find a connected IoT solution that could give the team the ability to make real-time changes and more informed decisions. Prior to implementing, Carrefour struggled to address their conversion rates and did not have the proper insights into the customer decision-making process nor how to make an immediate impact without losing customer confidence.

Ensures Cold Milk in Your Supermarket
As of 2014, AK-Centralen has over 1,500 Danish supermarkets equipped, and utilizes 16 operators, and is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. AK-Centralen needed the ability to monitor the cooling alarms from around the country, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. Each and every time the door to a milk cooler or a freezer does not close properly, an alarm goes off on a computer screen in a control building in southwestern Odense. This type of alarm will go off approximately 140,000 times per year, equating to roughly 400 alarms in a 24-hour period. Should an alarm go off, then there is only a limited amount of time to act before dairy products or frozen pizza must be disposed of, and this type of waste can quickly start to cost a supermarket a great deal of money.

Case Study
Supermarket Energy Savings
The client had previously deployed a one-meter-per-store monitoring program. Given the manner in which energy consumption changes with external temperature, hour of the day, day of week and month of year, a single meter solution lacked the ability to detect the difference between a true problem and a changing store environment. Most importantly, a single meter solution could never identify root cause of energy consumption changes. This approach never reduced the number of truck-rolls or man-hours required to find and resolve issues.
