关于客户
亚琛工业大学是位于德国西北部莱茵兰-威斯特法伦州亚琛市的一所技术大学。该大学被公认为欧洲最杰出的技术机构之一,共有 9 个学院,40,000 名学生。最近,亚琛工业大学第二次被评为卓越大学,继续保持其德国精英大学之一的地位。该大学拥有 7,500 名教职员工和 43,000 名学生,是一所拥有大量数据和网络安全需求的大型机构。
挑战
亚琛工业大学是欧洲最杰出的技术机构之一,在网络安全方面面临着重大挑战。与其他研究型机构一样,大学也是网络攻击的热门目标,因此,它们对安全的标准和要求非常严格。亚琛工业大学计算与通信中心对网络安全有几个重要的标准,包括高性能和可用性、异构基础设施和系统环境、与多个研究网络的无缝连接,以及支持可变用户角色、权限和访问权限的能力。该大学需要一种安全解决方案,可以管理超过 20 Gbps 的数据负载,同时提供保护,防止针对最终用户设备的越来越多的针对性攻击。
解决方案
2013 年底,该大学选择续订其下一代防火墙软件许可证,因为该解决方案的投资回报率和扩展能力优于竞争产品。Forcepoint NGFW 被选为该大学安全挑战的解决方案。该系统自动在七个相互连接的防火墙集群之间分配亚琛工业大学的传入和传出网络流量,以确保最佳的网络性能和可用性。即使在高流量负载下,防火墙检查的每五百个数据包都会被筛选为恶意软件。集群策略还有许多其他优势,包括即使在 IT 人员执行网络基础设施维护和优化时也能保持防火墙保护正常运行。对于软件更新和其他维护,单个防火墙可以暂时与集群断开连接,而其余系统将接管数据流量的控制。

Revolutionizing Medical Training in India: GSL Smart Lab and the LAP Mentor
The GSL SMART Lab, a collective effort of the GSL College of Medicine and the GSL College of Nursing and Health Science, was facing a challenge in providing superior training to healthcare professionals. As clinical medicine was becoming more focused on patient safety and quality of care, the need for medical simulation to bridge the educational gap between the classroom and the clinical environment was becoming increasingly apparent. Dr. Sandeep Ganni, the director of the GSL SMART Lab, envisioned a world-class surgical and medical training center where physicians and healthcare professionals could learn skills through simulation training. He was looking for different simulators for different specialties to provide both basic and advanced simulation training. For laparoscopic surgery, he was interested in a high fidelity simulator that could provide basic surgical and suturing skills training for international accreditation as well as specific hands-on training in complex laparoscopic procedures for practicing physicians in India.

IoT platform Enables Safety Solutions for U.S. School Districts
Designed to alert drivers when schoolchildren are present, especially in low-visibility conditions, school-zone flasher signals are typically updated manually at each school. The switching is based on the school calendar and manually changed when an unexpected early dismissal occurs, as in the case of a weather-event altering the normal schedule. The process to reprogram the flashers requires a significant effort by school district personnel to implement due to the large number of warning flashers installed across an entire school district.

Implementing Robotic Surgery Training Simulator for Enhanced Surgical Proficiency
Fundacio Puigvert, a leading European medical center specializing in Urology, Nephrology, and Andrology, faced a significant challenge in training its surgical residents. The institution recognized the need for a more standardized and comprehensive training curriculum, particularly in the area of robotic surgery. The challenge was underscored by two independent studies showing that less than 5% of residents in Italian and German residency programs could perform major or complex procedures by the end of their residency. The institution sought to establish a virtual reality simulation lab that would include endourological, laparoscopic, and robotic platforms. However, they needed a simulator that could replicate both the hardware and software of the robotic Da Vinci console used in the operating room, without being connected to the actual physical console. They also required a system that could provide both basic and advanced simulation training, and a metrics system to assess the proficiency of the trainees before they performed surgical procedures in the operating theater.

Edinburgh Napier University streamlines long-distance learning with Cisco WebEX
• Geographically dispersed campus made in-person meetings costly and inconvenient.• Distance-learning programs in Malaysia, India, and China required dependable, user-friendly online tools to maximize interaction in collaborative workspaces.• Virtual learning environment required a separate sign-in process, resulting in a significant administrative burden for IT staff and limited adoption of collaboration technology.

8x increased productivity with VKS
Before VKS, a teacher would spend a lot of time showing a group of 22 students how to build a set of stairs within a semester of 120 hours. Along with not leaving the teacher much time to provide one-on-one support for each student to properly learn carpentry, it also left a considerable amount of room for error. Key information would be misinterpreted or lost as the class was taught in the typical show-and-tell way.

Scalable IoT Empowering GreenFlex's Sustainable Growth
GreenFlex, a company that supports sustainable development, decarbonization, and energy efficiency, faced several challenges in its quest to expand its business. The company needed to deploy a robust and sustainable IoT technology to support its growth. It was crucial for them to monitor and control devices at customer sites in a safe and reliable manner. They also needed to integrate devices across a range of communication protocols and gather and act on data to meet efficiency targets. GreenFlex had previously built IoT capabilities into its digital platform, GreenFlexIQ, to monitor and manage customer sites remotely. However, they soon realized that they needed a new platform to support their ambitions. They needed a platform that could scale to connect more devices for production management and make it easier for the operations team to manage devices in the field.
