挑战
Security7 是一家托管安全服务提供商 (MSSP)，该公司一直在努力使用内部工具来管理设备配置。该工具缺乏自动化，导致配置和部署新设备的速度缓慢且繁琐。这种低效率影响了该公司在行业中保持竞争优势的能力。该公司需要一种可以简化配置流程、释放资源并为其服务产品增加价值的解决方案。
关于客户
Security7 是一家托管安全服务提供商 (MSSP)，总部位于马萨诸塞州梅休因。该公司帮助企业利用 IT 资源来保持竞争优势。他们使用 LM Config 管理 250-500 个 Fortinet 防火墙的配置。在此之前，他们使用内部工具进行设备配置管理。然而，该工具速度慢且缺乏自动化，难以有效地配置和部署新设备。该公司的首席信息安全官是 Ray Scholl。
解决方案
Security7 采用 LM Config 来管理设备配置。LM Config 简化了配置过程，只需添加主机名和 SNMP 社区字符串即可启动和运行设备。这比他们以前的工具有了显著的改进。LM Config 还提供了使用已保存配置恢复设备的功能，这一功能为 Security7 的客户带来了立竿见影的价值。该公司可以向新客户保证，他们可以在短短 4 小时内配置替换设备并恢复服务。此外，LM Config 的用户界面是优于供应商专用工具的一个关键优势，可以轻松快速地在设备的运行配置和性能数据之间进行切换。

Improving Vending Machine Profitability with the Internet of Things (IoT)
The vending industry is undergoing a sea change, taking advantage of new technologies to go beyond just delivering snacks to creating a new retail location. Intelligent vending machines can be found in many public locations as well as company facilities, selling different types of goods and services, including even computer accessories, gold bars, tickets, and office supplies. With increasing sophistication, they may also provide time- and location-based data pertaining to sales, inventory, and customer preferences. But at the end of the day, vending machine operators know greater profitability is driven by higher sales and lower operating costs.
Case Study
Remote Wellhead Monitoring
Each wellhead was equipped with various sensors and meters that needed to be monitored and controlled from a central HMI, often miles away from the assets in the field. Redundant solar and wind generators were installed at each wellhead to support the electrical needs of the pumpstations, temperature meters, cameras, and cellular modules. In addition to asset management and remote control capabilities, data logging for remote surveillance and alarm notifications was a key demand from the customer. Terra Ferma’s solution needed to be power efficient, reliable, and capable of supporting high-bandwidth data-feeds. They needed a multi-link cellular connection to a central server that sustained reliable and redundant monitoring and control of flow meters, temperature sensors, power supply, and event-logging; including video and image files. This open-standard network needed to interface with the existing SCADA and proprietary network management software.

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.
