关于客户
客户是一家国家执法机构，负责为一个人口超过 6000 万的国家提供全面的边境保护。该国边境每年约有 2 亿人次过境。该机构拥有近 25,000 名工作人员，其中包括约 9,000 名执法人员。它在当地社区和 130 多个国家开展业务。该机构的任务是在一场将吸引超过 50 万游客的全球体育赛事期间提供边境安全保障。
挑战
这个拥有 6000 多万人口、每年约有 2 亿人次过境的国家的边境管制组织面临着 IT 基础设施老化、身份证和指纹系统过时的问题。这阻碍了对移民信息的有效分析，危及了边境安全。该组织的任务是在一场全球体育赛事期间提供边境安全保障，该赛事将吸引超过 50 万游客。该赛事为该组织提供了加速全面改造其安全系统的机会和必要性。该赛事还将对系统的有效性进行首次重大测试，届时将有超过 38 万名参与者、家属和工作人员接受身份验证和安全检查。
解决方案
该机构与 IBM 全球服务部和 IBM 业务合作伙伴 Morpho and Aware, Inc.（多生物特征数据采集和分析专家）合作，设计并实施了一套生物特征和先进的乘客处理系统。该系统将使边境管制部门能够在旅客前往该国途中执行近乎实时的风险评估。该解决方案是使用 IBM WebSphere、IBM Tivoli 和 IBM DB2 软件开发的面向服务的架构。它托管在支持云的 IBM System x、IBM Power Systems 和 IBM XIV Storage Systems 基础架构上，通过连接到中央运营中心的分散站点网络运行，远程办事处遍布全国、边境和 130 多个国家。身份验证系统还具有一个支持远程捕获生物特征数据的移动应用程序。

Data Capture for Afghanistan Forces
Electronic equipments on the field of Afghanistan provided information on the status of the vehicle and to identify potential threats surrounding it to the British Force. The monitoring and interpretation of this data requires robust and sophisticated digitization for data capture and communication.

Enhancing Security and Compliance in Remitly's Global Money Transfer Service with Fastly
Remitly, an online remittance service, was faced with the challenge of securing its proprietary global transfer network. The company needed a security solution that could meet PCI requirements and protect customers' sensitive transactions through its mobile application. The solution had to be capable of defending against new and emerging attack types without impacting performance. Remitly also had to deal with irregular traffic patterns, such as a sudden spike in account transfers from a small network segment on the Pacific coastline of South America. The company needed to determine in real time whether such traffic indicated an attack or valid requests. A traditional web application firewall (WAF) would not be able to distinguish this traffic, potentially leading to customer frustration if the IP was blacklisted.

Major Aerospace Company Automates Asset Management
The O&M division of an aerospace and global security company was using spreadsheets to manually track more than 3,000 assets assigned to students and staff. Maintaining audit trails for this high volume of equipment became increasingly time-consuming and challenging. The chore involved knowing precisely what equipment was on hand, what had been issued, its location and the name of the custodial owner of each item. Every aspect of this task was carried owner of each item. Every aspect of this task was carried out by individuals with spreadsheets. Manually documenting the full lifecycle of each asset added to the burden. This included tracking maintenance requirements and records, incidents and damages, repairs, calibrations, depreciation, and end-of-life data.

Securing a Large Data Center in the EMEA Region: An IoT Case Study
A leading data-center operator in the EMEA region, with multiple facilities spanning over 25,000 square meters, faced significant security challenges. The operator experienced interruptions in their internal IT network due to unsupervised work of third-party technicians. Despite having a high-end building control system that provided 24x7 monitoring and control to all the building’s infrastructure, the data center was vulnerable from a cyber perspective as it was connected to the IT network infrastructure. The operator launched an urgent OT cyber security project that included both IT-OT network segmentation and OT network asset mapping and anomaly detection. The main objectives were to harden the security of the server systems, secure the facility’s power supply and server cooling system, strengthen the segmentation between building and operational systems, create a visual OT network map, and set up a system for presenting supply-chain attacks that may threaten the data center through equipment vendors’ maintenance activities.

Leveraging Graph Technology for Enhanced Cybersecurity: A Case Study on MITRE's CyGraph
MITRE, a federally-funded, not-for-profit company that manages seven national research and development laboratories in the United States, was grappling with the challenge of managing an influx of cybersecurity data. The constant changes in network environments were impacting the security posture of U.S. government agencies. Intrusion alerts, anti-virus warnings, and seemingly benign events like logins, service connections, and file share access were all potentially associated with adversary activity. The cybersecurity researchers at MITRE needed to go beyond rudimentary assessments of security posture and attack response. This required merging isolated data into higher-level knowledge of network-wide attack vulnerabilities and mission readiness. The challenge was not the lack of information, but the ability to assemble disparate pieces of information into an overall analytic picture for situational awareness, optimal courses of action, and maintaining mission readiness. The team also struggled with fully comprehending a given security environment and mapping all known vulnerabilities.

Enhancing Security Precision with IoT: A Case Study of Guardsman Group
Guardsman Group, a leading security company in the Caribbean, faced a significant challenge in maintaining the security of its digital infrastructure. The company provides security equipment, personnel, and systems for various businesses across the region. However, one of its offices experienced a security incident that affected all communications at that location. The existing security tools were not sufficient to provide the necessary protection, and it took hours to identify the source of the issue. This incident highlighted the need for a dynamic solution that could proactively identify threats. The company's primary concern was any disruption to its business, as it manages a significant portion of Jamaica's money and cannot afford for its operations to go down.
