About The Customer
Rosedale Union School District is a Kindergarten – 8th Grade Public School District that educates more than 5,800 students at nine schools. A school district in Bakersfield, California, the Rosedale Union School District looks to educate all students in the district to make them career and college-ready. Nine schools recognized by the California Department of Education as Distinguished, Gold Ribbon, and National Blue Ribbon operate under the school district. A key objective of the Rosedale Union School District is providing a child-centered learning environment with high expectations for student achievement and parent involvement through common goals. To this end, a comprehensive 21st-century core curriculum with high standards is emphasized and the diversity of learners is valued so that each student will reach their full potential. Relevant and practical guidance is given to students, which improves self-worth and self-discipline through critical and creative thinking, as well as the acquisition of curricular and technical skills. The Rosedale Union School District looks to achieve this using technology.
The Challenge
To deliver 21st-century learning methods to students that allow it to achieve its mission and goals, the Rosedale Union School District wanted a solution that would make it easy and secure to manage the computers on its network. The COVID-19 pandemic forced the nine schools under the Rosedale Union School District to move to a distance learning environment to conduct classes and provide educational material – which they saw as an opportunity to try modern learning methods. However, the school district was aware of the potential threats of conducting learning in an online environment. The district’s IT department searched for a solution that provided the flexibility and security needed to conduct and manage online or distant learning for its students. The IT department then started searching for ways to consolidate its security and IT management. And this is when they came across Comodo.
The Solution
The Rosedale Union School District partnered with Comodo to make its distance learning environment secure and flexible. They evaluated Palo Alto Traps and ESET but decided to work with Comodo because of all the tools that were wrapped into a single package. The Rosedale School Union District chose Comodo’s Dragon Platform with Advanced Endpoint Protection (AEP), a patent-pending auto containment technology with active breach protection that neutralizes ransomware, malware, and cyber-attacks. Comodo has architected its cybersecurity product to maximize intelligent sharing between every component of the platform, therefore providing superior security, which is a sentiment shared by the team at Rosedale School District. Comodo allows Rosedale School Union District and the like to continue providing quality education to students in times where social distancing protocols have limited in-person learning. Key features and benefits of Comodo Dragon Platform include a complete cloud-native framework that delivers zero trust architecture to protect and defend endpoints, activate breach protection, and eliminate alert fatigue with cloud-native architecture and threat detection.

IoT platform Enables Safety Solutions for U.S. School Districts
Designed to alert drivers when schoolchildren are present, especially in low-visibility conditions, school-zone flasher signals are typically updated manually at each school. The switching is based on the school calendar and manually changed when an unexpected early dismissal occurs, as in the case of a weather-event altering the normal schedule. The process to reprogram the flashers requires a significant effort by school district personnel to implement due to the large number of warning flashers installed across an entire school district.

Revolutionizing Medical Training in India: GSL Smart Lab and the LAP Mentor
The GSL SMART Lab, a collective effort of the GSL College of Medicine and the GSL College of Nursing and Health Science, was facing a challenge in providing superior training to healthcare professionals. As clinical medicine was becoming more focused on patient safety and quality of care, the need for medical simulation to bridge the educational gap between the classroom and the clinical environment was becoming increasingly apparent. Dr. Sandeep Ganni, the director of the GSL SMART Lab, envisioned a world-class surgical and medical training center where physicians and healthcare professionals could learn skills through simulation training. He was looking for different simulators for different specialties to provide both basic and advanced simulation training. For laparoscopic surgery, he was interested in a high fidelity simulator that could provide basic surgical and suturing skills training for international accreditation as well as specific hands-on training in complex laparoscopic procedures for practicing physicians in India.

Implementing Robotic Surgery Training Simulator for Enhanced Surgical Proficiency
Fundacio Puigvert, a leading European medical center specializing in Urology, Nephrology, and Andrology, faced a significant challenge in training its surgical residents. The institution recognized the need for a more standardized and comprehensive training curriculum, particularly in the area of robotic surgery. The challenge was underscored by two independent studies showing that less than 5% of residents in Italian and German residency programs could perform major or complex procedures by the end of their residency. The institution sought to establish a virtual reality simulation lab that would include endourological, laparoscopic, and robotic platforms. However, they needed a simulator that could replicate both the hardware and software of the robotic Da Vinci console used in the operating room, without being connected to the actual physical console. They also required a system that could provide both basic and advanced simulation training, and a metrics system to assess the proficiency of the trainees before they performed surgical procedures in the operating theater.

8x increased productivity with VKS
Before VKS, a teacher would spend a lot of time showing a group of 22 students how to build a set of stairs within a semester of 120 hours. Along with not leaving the teacher much time to provide one-on-one support for each student to properly learn carpentry, it also left a considerable amount of room for error. Key information would be misinterpreted or lost as the class was taught in the typical show-and-tell way.

Scalable IoT Empowering GreenFlex's Sustainable Growth
GreenFlex, a company that supports sustainable development, decarbonization, and energy efficiency, faced several challenges in its quest to expand its business. The company needed to deploy a robust and sustainable IoT technology to support its growth. It was crucial for them to monitor and control devices at customer sites in a safe and reliable manner. They also needed to integrate devices across a range of communication protocols and gather and act on data to meet efficiency targets. GreenFlex had previously built IoT capabilities into its digital platform, GreenFlexIQ, to monitor and manage customer sites remotely. However, they soon realized that they needed a new platform to support their ambitions. They needed a platform that could scale to connect more devices for production management and make it easier for the operations team to manage devices in the field.
