About The Customer
Lightbeam Health Solutions is a provider of a data analytics platform that unifies claims and clinical data to help healthcare organizations provide superior patient care with lower costs. The company's technology provides Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs), payers, large provider groups, health systems, and other healthcare organizations with actionable information that helps them better manage patient care while reducing costs. The company aggregates and analyzes high volumes of clinical and claims data using advanced modeling, Artificial Intelligence (AI), and reporting technologies. Customers access their information through their accounts in the customer portal.
The Challenge
Lightbeam Health Solutions, a provider of a data analytics platform for healthcare organizations, faced the challenge of protecting sensitive customer data amidst rapid company growth and the transition from brick-and-mortar data centers to a hybrid cloud environment. The company needed to ensure consistent security for both its data center and cloud infrastructure and services. The continual changes in the healthcare industry, new technologies, and company growth were outpacing the data centers' abilities to keep up, leading Lightbeam to extend its infrastructure to the cloud. The challenge was to ensure comprehensive protection for cloud assets without sacrificing agility or scale, and to simplify security management across premises and cloud infrastructure.
The Solution
To address these challenges, Lightbeam adopted Check Point CloudGuard Network Security and Check Point Harmony Email & Office, along with Check Point R80 Security Management. This architecture provided complete threat prevention, sealing any security gaps and sharing immediate threat intelligence automatically across both environments. Check Point CloudGuard for Microsoft Azure protected workloads, data, and assets with secure connectivity between the Azure cloud and on-premises environments. CloudGuard IaaS brought the same firewall, IPS, data loss prevention, zero-day protection, and other threat prevention capabilities to the cloud that Check Point firewalls delivered to Lightbeam's physical data centers and offices. Lightbeam also leveraged Check Point CloudGuard SaaS to provide zero-day threat protection, and data protection to its Microsoft Office 365 environment, preventing data loss and scanning email messages and attachments for malicious content.

Discrete Manufacturing Industries (Fiberglass Pipe)
The implementation of ERP software in a Discrete Manufacturing organization needs to be strategic, irrespective of its size and capacity. The client had already implemented an ERP system which fulfilled their requirements but was not efficient enough. Efficiency here meant Synchronized Planning, Updating and Multisite Planning. Planning at client’s place was done outside the ERP system. Lack of proper synchronization to the ERP system paved way to huge delays in the changes getting updated in the system. These delays caused disruption in achieving delivery schedules. Multisite Planning is a solution to an organization which has multiple production units (may or may not be geographically separated) and thus needs planning across these units to synchronize production activities within them. The client also has multiple factories and hence Production Planning control is very essential in their case. Since Multisite planning was not possible with Baan ERP system, this was another bottleneck for the client.

Major Aerospace Company Automates Asset Management
The O&M division of an aerospace and global security company was using spreadsheets to manually track more than 3,000 assets assigned to students and staff. Maintaining audit trails for this high volume of equipment became increasingly time-consuming and challenging. The chore involved knowing precisely what equipment was on hand, what had been issued, its location and the name of the custodial owner of each item. Every aspect of this task was carried owner of each item. Every aspect of this task was carried out by individuals with spreadsheets. Manually documenting the full lifecycle of each asset added to the burden. This included tracking maintenance requirements and records, incidents and damages, repairs, calibrations, depreciation, and end-of-life data.

Securing a Large Data Center in the EMEA Region: An IoT Case Study
A leading data-center operator in the EMEA region, with multiple facilities spanning over 25,000 square meters, faced significant security challenges. The operator experienced interruptions in their internal IT network due to unsupervised work of third-party technicians. Despite having a high-end building control system that provided 24x7 monitoring and control to all the building’s infrastructure, the data center was vulnerable from a cyber perspective as it was connected to the IT network infrastructure. The operator launched an urgent OT cyber security project that included both IT-OT network segmentation and OT network asset mapping and anomaly detection. The main objectives were to harden the security of the server systems, secure the facility’s power supply and server cooling system, strengthen the segmentation between building and operational systems, create a visual OT network map, and set up a system for presenting supply-chain attacks that may threaten the data center through equipment vendors’ maintenance activities.

Asia Airfreight Terminal Enhances Operational Efficiency with CommScope's RUCKUS Solutions
Asia Airfreight Terminal (AAT), a leading cargo handling company based out of Hong Kong International Airport, was facing challenges with its Wi-Fi network, which was critical for the functioning of its automated Material Handling System (MHS) within the warehouse. Any interference or lost signals could directly impact their operational efficiency. AAT also had separate networks for their office and CCTV cameras, which made the job of their data center challenging. The company was in search of a Wi-Fi network configuration that could streamline their networks and reduce its network management workload. AAT was already running on equipment from a competing vendor, and the new solution needed to prove its worth in scalability and reliability.
