挑战
When Daniel Santiago first started at the City of Lewiston, he was using Spiceworks’ free software to monitor the network and detect threats. However, the limitations of the free software became apparent when Santiago realized the need for a more robust security solution. The city network required constant monitoring and protection, especially for public Wi-Fi spots and online bill pay services. Santiago and his team, being IT generalists, lacked the time and training to effectively use advanced security tools like Splunk, which required extensive log management and correlation. The high cost of hiring a security operations center analyst and the additional training required for these tools further complicated the situation.
关于客户
The City of Lewiston, founded in 1861, is the second-largest city in northern Idaho and the ninth largest in the state, with a population of 31,894 as of 2010. The city’s official website provides extensive information on city departments, upcoming events, and visitor questions. The IT department, consisting of five full-time employees, is responsible for the security of the city’s network, including public Wi-Fi spots and online bill pay services for municipal services like water and garbage. Daniel Santiago, the System Administrator, plays a crucial role in ensuring the network's security.
解决方案
After using AlienVault’s free threat alert tool integrated with Spiceworks, Santiago began considering a paid security product with more functionality. He evaluated several SIEM solutions, including Splunk, but found them too complex and time-consuming for his team. The need for a security operations center analyst to manage these tools was a significant drawback. Santiago and his team eventually chose AlienVault for its ease of use and comprehensive security features. AlienVault’s solution allowed them to monitor and secure their network without the need for additional staff or extensive training. The product’s ability to detect and block malicious IPs, along with its user-friendly interface, made it an ideal choice for the City of Lewiston.

Case Study
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.

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.
