关于客户
职业教育公司 (CEC) 是一家全球高等教育提供商。该公司通过在线、校园和混合环境为全球 75,000 多名学生提供博士、硕士、学士和副学士学位以及文凭和证书课程。CEC 在复杂且分布式的端点环境中运营，其学校、公司办公室、数据中心、在线招聘中心和远程用户位置拥有超过 20,000 个端点。该公司的 IT 基础设施包括混合操作系统环境和各种端点连接。
挑战
职业教育公司 (CEC) 正在使用一个分散的端点管理系统来跟踪 80 个校园和 10 个办事处的数千个端点。该公司需要一个集中式系统来管理软件和硬件资产。当三家软件供应商请求审查软件许可证时，对更强大的系统的需求就变得显而易见。现有系统无法处理这些请求，CEC 可能会因每次违规而面临高达 150,000 美元的违规罚款。该公司还拥有混合操作系统环境和多种端点连接，这增加了情况的复杂性。
解决方案
CEC 选择 IBM BigFix 解决方案作为其软件资产管理工具，并将其扩展到硬件资产管理、修补、防病毒更新和笔记本电脑加密。IBM BigFix 解决方案为从硬件资产管理和修补到桌面映像等所有方面提供了高度可扩展的解决方案。通过一些定制，CEC 还通过网络向公司笔记本电脑提供加密软件，并可以在笔记本电脑被盗时验证笔记本电脑的加密。鉴于保护学生信息的严格规定，这种验证极其重要。该解决方案的统一平台可轻松融入公司的混合 Microsoft Windows-Mac OS 环境和多设备环境。

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.

Edinburgh Napier University streamlines long-distance learning with Cisco WebEX
• Geographically dispersed campus made in-person meetings costly and inconvenient.• Distance-learning programs in Malaysia, India, and China required dependable, user-friendly online tools to maximize interaction in collaborative workspaces.• Virtual learning environment required a separate sign-in process, resulting in a significant administrative burden for IT staff and limited adoption of collaboration technology.

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.
