挑战
The biggest challenge that Priority One solves for its customers is keeping their systems available 24/7 and secure. The smaller companies it supports need the enterprise-grade system uptime, but have less budget to do that — which is why they rely on Priority One services to support their IT needs. Priority One realizes that patching operating systems and applications needs to be done continually to be sure that these programs continue to work together. For example, certain applications will stop working if they are not on the latest versions and subsequently, you may not be able to upgrade the apps without being on the latest build. More significantly, known vulnerabilities in apps or operating systems provide plenty of opportunity for adversaries to exploit them. According to leading industry data, adversaries are weaponizing new critical vulnerabilities in seven days on average. And zero-day vulnerabilities are already weaponized at the moment of disclosure. Companies that hold off patching increase their odds of a possible breach. Given that security has become more urgent, the need for rapid patching has never been greater.
关于客户
Priority One is a managed service provider (MSP) located in the UK that provides IT and cybersecurity support to London-based businesses between 20 and 300 employees. Most of Priority One’s clients are in the finance, property, and medical industries. When Priority One realized the lack of an overarching product that could show a company the state of its cybersecurity protection, the ThreatAware platform was born. Priority One designed ThreatAware to give business owners and IT managers the whole picture, at a glance. The platform provides access to the key data from their security tools, people, and processes in a simple, easy-to-use dashboard.
解决方案
Priority One chose to integrate Automox into its ThreatAware platform to provide a patching and endpoint hardening solution to its clients. The Automox integration with ThreatAware means that it can manage and remediate all alerts across multiple operating systems through one platform. Automox patching allows Priority One to patch client endpoints with minimal effort — which is a big win for the organization. However, the speed and ease with which agents can be deployed (with ThreatAware Deploy) and the ability to run Automox WorkletsTM across its client endpoints is where the real power of the solution lies. The Automox® API easily integrated with ThreatAware to provide quick access to the necessary software updates required on the installed endpoints. The Automox API is a rich resource that provides granular information on everything that sits within the Automox platform, including policies, patches, endpoints, and users. This ensures that Automox and ThreatAware customers are able to connect the solutions together with ease: Customers simply have to input their Automox API key into the ThreatAware three-step connection wizard and can quickly start reaping the benefits. With Automox Worklets, organizations are able to extend the capabilities of what they want to do on their devices to keep them protected and more secure. Worklets allow them to better manage and automate updates across their endpoints by being able to deploy or remove software, apply necessary configuration changes, or any custom task they can imagine to help keep their corporate data more secure.

Hospital Inventory Management
The hospital supply chain team is responsible for ensuring that the right medical supplies are readily available to clinicians when and where needed, and to do so in the most efficient manner possible. However, many of the systems and processes in use at the cancer center for supply chain management were not best suited to support these goals. Barcoding technology, a commonly used method for inventory management of medical supplies, is labor intensive, time consuming, does not provide real-time visibility into inventory levels and can be prone to error. Consequently, the lack of accurate and real-time visibility into inventory levels across multiple supply rooms in multiple hospital facilities creates additional inefficiency in the system causing over-ordering, hoarding, and wasted supplies. Other sources of waste and cost were also identified as candidates for improvement. Existing systems and processes did not provide adequate security for high-cost inventory within the hospital, which was another driver of cost. A lack of visibility into expiration dates for supplies resulted in supplies being wasted due to past expiry dates. Storage of supplies was also a key consideration given the location of the cancer center’s facilities in a dense urban setting, where space is always at a premium. In order to address the challenges outlined above, the hospital sought a solution that would provide real-time inventory information with high levels of accuracy, reduce the level of manual effort required and enable data driven decision making to ensure that the right supplies were readily available to clinicians in the right location at the right time.

Driving Digital Transformations for Vitro Diagnostic Medical Devices
Diagnostic devices play a vital role in helping to improve healthcare delivery. In fact, an estimated 60 percent of the world’s medical decisions are made with support from in vitrodiagnostics (IVD) solutions, such as those provided by Roche Diagnostics, an industry leader. As the demand for medical diagnostic services grows rapidly in hospitals and clinics across China, so does the market for IVD solutions. In addition, the typically high cost of these diagnostic devices means that comprehensive post-sales services are needed. Wanteed to improve three portions of thr IVD:1. Remotely monitor and manage IVD devices as fixed assets.2. Optimizing device availability with predictive maintenance.3. Recommending the best IVD solution for a customer’s needs.

Harnessing real-time data to give a holistic picture of patient health
Every day, vast quantities of data are collected about patients as they pass through health service organizations—from operational data such as treatment history and medications to physiological data captured by medical devices. The insights hidden within this treasure trove of data can be used to support more personalized treatments, more accurate diagnosis and more advanced preparative care. But since the information is generated faster than most organizations can consume it, unlocking the power of this big data can be a struggle. This type of predictive approach not only improves patient care—it also helps to reduce costs, because in the healthcare industry, prevention is almost always more cost-effective than treatment. However, collecting, analyzing and presenting these data-streams in a way that clinicians can easily understand can pose a significant technical challenge.
