关于客户
Centre Technologies is a company that prides itself on seeing a problem from the customer’s perspective and creatively using technology to provide a solution. Unlike many companies who sell technology products, Centre takes the approach of putting people first and then using technology to help them do their jobs better, faster, and more securely. This philosophy has served the company well, and it has propelled Centre’s growth from a single office in Houston to multiple offices across Texas and Louisiana. Since many of Centre’s customers are small and do not have large IT teams, they rely on Centre to partner with them and guide their technology decisions. Among their customers, cybersecurity has become one of the most critical focus areas, aligning with the growing awareness of companies, big and small, being potential targets for cyber attacks. Threats such as ransomware have made cybersecurity even more critical, especially for small businesses, for which an attack can literally bring a company’s operations to a halt with disastrous consequences.
挑战
Most security vendors focus on Internet and network perimeter defense, but in today’s threat environment that is not enough. Security experts agree that the best strategy is not to assume that you can keep breaches from happening, but to have a robust detection and response program in place for when a breach occurs. Mobile workers and the Internet of Things have increased the attack surface exponentially, and there is no way to ensure that bad actors will not find a way into a company’s network. Many enterprises have realized this and rely on a security operations center (SOC) for end-to-end security. As cybercriminals have become more sophisticated, SOCs have become an essential part of modern cybersecurity. However, SOCs are complex and costly, often costing companies millions of dollars. Large enterprises enjoy the luxury of a large budget to support this cost, but SMBs and smaller enterprises do not, yet they face many of the same security, audit and compliance challenges. Centre understood this market dynamic and realized that a more comprehensive SOC service would be the best solution for its customers and differentiate them in the market.
解决方案
Centre realized that offering a world-class SOC-as-a-Service required unique capabilities including collecting large volumes of log and network data, large scale incident investigation, and expert threat hunting in log data and indicators of compromise. They evaluated Arctic Wolf’s solution and decided AWN CyberSOC would reduce time to market and help them provide their customers with an enterprise-class SOC service. They were drawn to Arctic Wolf because unlike solutions from other companies, AWN CyberSOC includes a Security Engineer and unlimited log collection at a fixed, predictable price designed for SMBs and mid-sized enterprises. Centre found AWN CyberSOC to be a natural extension of its service portfolio, and its customers quickly grew to appreciate that Centre had a solution to help them combat today’s sophisticated cyberattacks. Partnering with Arctic Wolf has helped the Centre team strengthen relationships with customers, expand its footprint within accounts, and stand out in the ever increasingly competitive value-added reseller industry.

UBM plc: Taking the pulse of the business and engaging employees with a far-reaching strategic transformation
UBM, a leading global events business, was undergoing a significant strategic transformation named 'Events First'. As part of this transformation, the company was preparing to complete the largest acquisition in its history - Advanstar, a US-based events and marketing services business valued at more than USD970m. The company faced the risk of human capital flight if it was unable to effectively engage top talent with the new strategic direction. UBM needed to make significant structural, process and systems changes, uniting its previously autonomous regional businesses. The challenge was to ensure all of its employees were engaged and aligned with the new future vision.

Darwin Ecosystem: Accelerating discovery and insight through cutting-edge big data and cognitive technologies
Darwin Ecosystem was founded with a unique vision of harnessing chaos theory mathematics to uncover previously hidden connections in unstructured data. The company’s algorithms can look at all the data generated by any source (such as news, RSS feeds and Twitter), and analyze how a specific set of concepts within that data are evolving over time. This is particularly valuable in situations such as business and competitive intelligence, social research, brand monitoring, legal discovery, risk mitigation and even law enforcement. A common problem in these areas is that a regular web search will only turn up the all-time most popular answers to a given question – but what the expert researcher is actually interested in is the moment-tomoment evolution of the data available on that topic. Darwin’s algorithm is computationally intensive, and the sources of data it correlates can be vast. To bring its benefits to a larger commercial audience, Darwin needed to find a way to make it scale.

Wittmann EDV-Systeme launches IT monitoring services
Small and medium-sized businesses often lack the know-how and resources required for thorough IT system monitoring. Wittmann EDV-Systeme wanted to launch a solution to plug the gap – enabling it to improve its own competitiveness and that of its customers. IT landscapes are becoming ever more complex and outsourcing is gaining popularity, IT systems must nonetheless remain easy-to-use and extremely reliable at all times. Automated, round-the-clock system monitoring therefore represents an immensely valuable proposition for companies: downtime for business-critical applications can be avoided, and IT systems remain available at all times.

Delivering modern data protection with cloud scale backup from Cobalt Iron and IBM
Organizations are struggling to modernize their legacy data protection environments in the face of growing demands around new infrastructure, new applications, and budget consolidation. Virtualization and modern application development processes have significantly outgrown legacy backup architectures. In response, infrastructure teams have created multiple backup solution types to handle the varying SLAs (performance, scale, cost) required by their business sponsors. However, the sheer number and variety of solutions in this uncontrolled expansion creates huge amounts of work, threatening to overwhelm the IT team in many organizations. Today, developers may add new applications and virtual server instances by the hundreds per day without accounting for the restrictions of the existing backup infrastructure. They leverage the cloud for immediate compute and storage resources, yet rarely communicate succinctly with corporate IT to ensure that the appropriate data protection services are in place.
