挑战
Capsticks 是一家领先的全国性医疗保健律师事务所，它拥有一套远程访问系统，供其律师从家中或其他远程位置登录。但是，远程访问仅通过密码保护。由于超过三分之二的安全漏洞是由于密码太弱或被盗而造成的，Capsticks 的 IT 团队非常清楚公司系统的脆弱性。作为一家律师事务所，他们处理的许多案件都非常敏感，因此他们存储的数据是保密的。他们意识到，就他们的远程工作环境而言，他们的安全性仅与员工使用的最弱密码一样好。他们需要迅速找到解决方案。除了提高安全性之外，对于 Capsticks 及其忙碌的律师团队来说，解决方案是否易于使用也至关重要。
关于客户
Capsticks 是领先的全国医疗保健律师事务所，在社会护理和社会住房领域也拥有无与伦比的专业知识。该公司总部位于伦敦，在伯明翰、利兹和温彻斯特设有地区办事处。Capsticks 为 200 多家医疗保健客户提供服务，包括 NHS 信托、CCG、监管机构、慈善机构和独立医疗保健提供商，以及 150 家注册住房提供商。主要客户包括 NHS 诉讼管理局、First Wessex、英国牙科总理事会、Barts Health NHS Trust 和 Sovereign Housing 协会。
解决方案
IT 团队的职责是寻找一种易于使用、非侵入式的系统，不会给用户带来额外的负担。通过研究各种解决方案，他们喜欢无令牌解决方案的想法，这种解决方案不需要用户随身携带额外的硬件。他们知道基于令牌的安全性成本更高，而且管理额外的硬件会占用他们大量的时间。他们发现，多重身份验证 (MFA) 使用许多变量来验证用户，并通过员工的手机提供密码——这是他们必不可少的硬件——是一个更好的选择，它更具成本效益且易于管理。除了 Outlook Web Access 之外，Capsticks 还选择了 Censornet 的 MFA 解决方案为其 VMWare Horizon View 远程工作系统提供身份验证，并且最近添加了密码重置模块，使用户能够从自助服务门户快速安全地重置密码。

Flex Contact Center: Supporting rapid business growth with IBM Connections Cloud and IBM Verse
Flex Contact Center, a professional services company offering telesales, call-center, anti-attrition, back-office, helpdesk and collection services, has grown rapidly since its establishment in 2009.
