挑战
The Police and Border Guard Board (PBGB) of Estonia faced a challenge as their data warehouse grew to contain information on 150,000 misdemeanors and more than 30,000 criminal offences. The analysts were tasked with automating data quality procedures. The team wanted to minimize the accrual of inaccurate data so that police reports and procedures would be consistent and correct. Bad data can impact each level of the organization and lead to inaccurate decisions regarding how resources are allocated, public order is maintained, and police procedures are conducted. For example, an incorrect date or time field can lead to an inaccurate evaluation of work performance.
关于客户
The Police and Border Guard Board (PBGB) is the law enforcement agency of the Republic of Estonia, a country of 1.3 million citizens in the Baltic region of Northern Europe. The board is under the supervision of the Ministry of the Interior, which supervises the PBGB, the Estonian Internal Security Service, the Rescue Service, the Emergency Response Centre, the IT and Development Centre of the Ministry of the Interior and the Academy of Security Sciences. With a grant from the European Union, PBGB set out to improve its analytic capabilities. Analysts envisioned a new data warehouse, an agency-wide reporting portal, and a predictive policing system that could help officers make decisions based on their analysis of recent crime trends.
解决方案
PBGB purchased Information Builders’ WebFOCUS business intelligence (BI) and analytics platform and the iWay Data Quality Suite to automate data quality and data profiling activities. iWay Data Quality tools allow the department to set up business rules to monitor and maintain data quality, now and in the future. iWay Data Quality Server is invoked during an iWay DataMigrator process to generate a log of executions. This log is used for internal reporting and communication. When problems are detected during the processing, iWay sends a list of anomalies for remediation. PBGB continues to use these iWay tools on a day-to-day basis as new information is loaded into the warehouse. The bureau uses iWay Data Quality Suite in conjunction with WebFOCUS to conduct data quality audits. WebFOCUS plays a role in the department’s data quality initiative by generating reports that summarize errors and anomalies in the source systems.

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.

Enhancing City Security through IoT: A Case Study of Atlanta
The city of Atlanta, with a resident population of over 420,000 and a metropolitan area of more than five million people, faced the challenge of ensuring the safety and security of its citizens and visitors. As a leading tourist destination and a multicultural city attracting global investment, Atlanta had to deal with the complexities of managing safety and security incidents. Over the years, the city had invested in various surveillance systems, providing visual intelligence to law enforcement and security professionals. However, these systems operated independently and were spread across a wide geography. The city aimed to increase collaboration among government agencies and create a shared Video Integration Center (VIC). The challenge was the disparate nature of the video systems, which were based on proprietary technologies and were both analog and IP based. The city also wanted to leverage the numerous private cameras located across the city, further complicating the integration of all these systems into one common platform.
