挑战
堪萨斯州蓝谷联合学区的 35 所学校拥有超过 23,000 名学生和 3,100 名教职员工,致力于为学生提供安全的数字学习环境。然而,该地区面临着重大的安全挑战。 2019 年 8 月,该学区遭受了一次成功的勒索软件攻击,促使对其庞大的应用程序和网络基础设施进行全面的安全评估。该学区的网络安全团队将勒索软件攻击、可见性和人员配置视为主要挑战。勒索软件攻击是一个持续的威胁,特别是考虑到公立学区的预算和人力有限。可见性是另一个问题,小团队很难全面了解该地区的安全状况。人员配备也是一个问题,许多学区无法投资必要的人员和软件来满足当今网络安全环境的需求。
关于客户
蓝谷联合学区是堪萨斯州的一所大型教育机构,拥有 23,000 多名学生和 3,100 名教职员工,分布在 5 所高中、9 所初中和 21 所小学。该学区致力于将技术融入课程和教学中,从幼儿园开始设备与学生的比例为 1:1。该学区还致力于为学生提供安全的学习环境,通过基于云的过滤系统 24/7 保护所有学区设备和在线学生活动。然而,该学区面临着重大的安全挑战,包括勒索软件攻击、可见性和人员配置,这导致了 Rapid7 Insight 平台的实施。
解决方案
为了应对这些挑战,Blue Valley 的网络安全工程师 Evan Nichols 实施了 Rapid7 Insight 平台。其中包括用于检测和响应的 InsightIDR、用于漏洞管理的 InsightVM 以及用于自动化的 InsightConnect。选择该平台是因为它能够处理大量数据并执行网络安全所需的大部分繁重工作。该团队从检测开始,使用 InsightIDR 评估该地区的安全需求。作为该学区向零信任模型转变的一部分,InsightVM 用于扫描数据中心资产。 InsightConnect 用于通过自动化事件响应来解决该地区的人力短缺问题。 Rapid7 Insight 平台为团队提供了监督和保护充满挑战的环境所需的可见性。它还使他们能够比其他产品更快地监控各种来源并执行自定义解析和日志事件源。

Turning A Stadium Into A Smart Building
Honeywell created what it called the “intelligent system” for the National Stadium in Beijing, China, turning the venue for the opening and closing events at the 2008 Summer Olympics into a “smart building.” Designed by highly controversial artist Ai Weiwei, the “Bird’s Nest” remains one of the most impressive feats of stadium architecture in the world. The 250,000 square meter structure housed more than 100,000 athletes and spectators at a time. To accommodate such capacity, China turned to Honeywell’s EBI Integrated Building Management System to create an integrated “intelligent system” for improved building security, safety and energy efficiency.

Smart Street Light Network (Copenhagen)
Key stakeholders are taking a comprehensive approach to rethinking smart city innovation. City leaders have collaborated through partnerships involving government, research institutions and solution providers. The Copenhagen Solutions Lab is one of the leading organizations at the forefront of this movement. By bringing together manufacturers with municipal buyers, the Copenhagen Solutions Lab has catalyzed the development and deployment of next-generation smart city innovations. Copenhagen is leveraging this unique approach to accelerate the implementation of smart city solutions. One of the primary focus areas is LED street lighting.

Buoy Status Monitoring with LoRa
The Netherlands are well-known for their inland waterways, canals, sluices and of course port activities. The Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure indicates that there are thousands of buoys and fixed items in and near water environments that would profit from IoT monitoring. One of the problems with buoys for example, is that they get hit by ships and the anchor cable breaks. Without connectivity, it takes quite some time to find out that something has happened with that buoy. Not to mention the costs of renting a boat to go to the buoy to fix it. Another important issue, is that there is no real-time monitoring of the buoys at this moment. Only by physically visiting the object on the water, one gains insight in its status.

China Mobile Smart Parking
Smart Parking, powered by NB-IoT technology, is making it easier for drivers to find free parking spots. Cities can better manage their parking assets and maximize the revenue available to them as a result. Drivers searching for parking create congestion and pollution by circling and hunting for available parking. Smart Parking services are able to significantly ease these problems by guiding a driver directly to a parking space.

Barcelona Case Study
Barcelona’s heavy traffic and its associated high levels of pollution were the primary factors that motivated some companies and universities to work on strategies for improving traffic in the city centre. Bitcarrier is one of the technologies involved in the In4Mo Project, whose main objective is to develop the applications that form the core of smart mobility, one of the fundamental pillars of the smart city concept.
