Kingdee Youshang E-business Service Co. Ltd., a leading player in China's enterprise online management service market, faced several challenges in maintaining a high level of security for its cloud computing and endpoint devices.

Kingdee Youshang specializes in providing this market with a full array of software, platform, and service support, including security. To ensure proper protection of its resources, the company needed to secure its applications with a robust data protection solution, ensure data integrity on client’s endpoint machines with proven encryption technology, and improve the efficiency of remote offices while maintaining a high level of security for cloud computing and endpoint devices.

The Solution
Kingdee Youshang adopted Check Point's data protection solutions to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of data accessed through the cloud and on its endpoint machines. This included the Check Point Full Disk Encryption Software Blade (FDE) for data at rest on desktop and laptop PCs, which protects from unauthorized access to data if laptops are lost or stolen. The company also implemented Check Point GO to enable its clients and mobile workers to access corporate cloud applications and data on both managed and unmanaged machines. Check Point GO allowed Kingdee Youshang and its customers to eliminate the need for providing laptop computers to tele-workers, opting instead to empower them with a secure remote access device. This not only reduced IT hardware and management costs but also increased working efficiency. Furthermore, Check Point GO enabled the company to meet strict internal security requirements as well as industry and government regulations while increasing mobility.

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.
