挑战
新西兰奥克兰的一家公用事业公司 Watercare Services 在保护其网络以及优化其 IIoT 和 IoT 设备的随处工作 (WFA) 和远程访问方面面临重大挑战。该公司最初使用多种安全解决方案(包括安全云网关和虚拟专用网络 (VPN))度过了第一波 COVID-19 封锁。然而,在第二次封锁期间,这些解决方案被证明是不够的。该公司现有的安全云网关很突兀,在用户中不受欢迎。此外,Watercare 的主要 VPN 产品在第二次封锁前崩溃,公司迫切需要一个更可靠、更全面的解决方案。该公司致力于采用零信任安全方法,需要一个能够提供卓越用户体验同时提供强大安全性的平台。
关于客户
Watercare Services 是一家位于新西兰奥克兰的公用事业公司。该公司每天将约 4 亿升收集的淡水转化为大奥克兰地区 170 万居民的饮用水。它还处理类似数量的废水并将其安全地返回沿海水道。除了这些服务之外,Watercare 还经营一个大型建筑部门来完成和维护其各种设施。该公司拥有约 1,100 名员工,为 170 万居民提供服务,并在 1,300 个地点开展业务。 Watercare 致力于有效地利用技术来提高生产力和用户体验。
解决方案
Watercare 决定在 Zscaler Zero Trust Exchange 平台上实现标准化,该平台包括精细的用户体验监控和分析解决方案 Zscaler Digital Experience (ZDX)。该公司在不到半天的时间内将其 Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) 部署扩展了 800 人,确保了对其数据中心和多云环境中运行的 Watercare 应用程序的访问。ZPA 将用户和设备连接到应用程序而不是网络,从而防止横向感染,同时使用户和应用程序对外部威胁不可见。该平台还检查流量(包括加密流量),以有效预防威胁和数据丢失。Watercare 还采用了 Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA) 来加快互联网连接速度并提高安全性。最后,该公司实施了 ZDX,以改善用户体验并更有效地解决应用程序性能问题。

Predictive Maintenance for Industrial Chillers
For global leaders in the industrial chiller manufacturing, reliability of the entire production process is of the utmost importance. Chillers are refrigeration systems that produce ice water to provide cooling for a process or industrial application. One of those leaders sought a way to respond to asset performance issues, even before they occur. The intelligence to guarantee maximum reliability of cooling devices is embedded (pre-alarming). A pre-alarming phase means that the cooling device still works, but symptoms may appear, telling manufacturers that a failure is likely to occur in the near future. Chillers who are not internet connected at that moment, provide little insight in this pre-alarming phase.
