DCI is an independent, privately-owned company with several bank clients serving as owners, board members and user-group leaders. For over 50 years, this bank-driven ownership and collaborative relationship has differentiated DCI through a more personal approach to technology development and customer care.

挑战
In 2010, DCI expanded the scope of their internal auditing requirements to include access related areas such as user privileges, password rotation policies, review of access sessions, and access history. To address compliance requirements, the team also decided to lock down the development, test and internal business servers to protect vast amounts of sensitive data. This meant that they had to fully restrict root access, reset all passwords after each use, and periodically rotate them — whether they were used or not. Even SSH access had to be limited. To fulfill these needs, DCI required a procedure to delegate and authorize specific limited functions on each server, when access was required. They also wanted different login IDs for different functions on each server, plus a workflow whereby two managers could grant access to specific functions at particular times. Activity on the servers also had to be tracked by ID, including the functions allowed by each ID.
解决方案
DCI sought a privilege and password management solution that they could efficiently deploy to meet immediate compliance needs, while future-proofing their processes for upcoming financial services regulations. They also required a solution that could accommodate 1,500+ users and support a multitude of access rules and policies across the entire IT environment. DCI selected BeyondTrust PowerBroker for Unix and Linux to delegate portions of privileged accounts on the Solaris, Ubuntu, and SUSE servers, as well as PowerBroker Password Safe to manage the approval process and rotate server passwords. PowerBroker for Unix and Linux has flexible policies that enabled delegation and enforcement of the different IDs, each for a portion of the privileged account functions on each server. A master server handles password requests and updates passwords on all systems. Loggers record all activity on each server. Since the initial policies were established, maintaining the PowerBroker solution has required minimal effort and only occasional updates. PowerBroker Password Safe provided the key to managing privilege passwords at DCI. The appliance was easy to deploy, and the solution now encrypts and rotates all passwords at DCI. It also audits all password use and records all privileged sessions for replay when needed. Password Safe’s workflow capabilities enable IT administrators to schedule and submit requests for passwords required to conduct server maintenance. The required two managers receive alerts and can approve password requests at their convenience. In the end, DCI’s IT administrators can be confident that they will have access to the systems they requested during their maintenance windows.

Real-time In-vehicle Monitoring
The telematic solution provides this vital premium-adjusting information. The solution also helps detect and deter vehicle or trailer theft – as soon as a theft occurs, monitoring personnel can alert the appropriate authorities, providing an exact location.“With more and more insurance companies and major fleet operators interested in monitoring driver behaviour on the grounds of road safety, efficient logistics and costs, the market for this type of device and associated e-business services is growing rapidly within Italy and the rest of Europe,” says Franco.“The insurance companies are especially interested in the pay-per-use and pay-as-you-drive applications while other organisations employ the technology for road user charging.”“One million vehicles in Italy currently carry such devices and forecasts indicate that the European market will increase tenfold by 2014.However, for our technology to work effectively, we needed a highly reliable wireless data network to carry the information between the vehicles and monitoring stations.”

Safety First with Folksam
The competitiveness of the car insurance market is driving UBI growth as a means for insurance companies to differentiate their customer propositions as well as improving operational efficiency. An insurance model - usage-based insurance ("UBI") - offers possibilities for insurers to do more efficient market segmentation and accurate risk assessment and pricing. Insurers require an IoT solution for the purpose of data collection and performance analysis

Smooth Transition to Energy Savings
The building was equipped with four end-of-life Trane water cooled chillers, located in the basement. Johnson Controls installed four York water cooled centrifugal chillers with unit mounted variable speed drives and a total installed cooling capacity of 6,8 MW. Each chiller has a capacity of 1,6 MW (variable to 1.9MW depending upon condenser water temperatures). Johnson Controls needed to design the equipment in such way that it would fit the dimensional constraints of the existing plant area and plant access route but also the specific performance requirements of the client. Morgan Stanley required the chiller plant to match the building load profile, turn down to match the low load requirement when needed and provide an improvement in the Energy Efficiency Ratio across the entire operating range. Other requirements were a reduction in the chiller noise level to improve the working environment in the plant room and a wide operating envelope coupled with intelligent controls to allow possible variation in both flow rate and temperature. The latter was needed to leverage increased capacity from a reduced number of machines during the different installation phases and allow future enhancement to a variable primary flow system.

Automated Pallet Labeling Solution for SPR Packaging
SPR Packaging, an American supplier of packaging solutions, was in search of an automated pallet labeling solution that could meet their immediate and future needs. They aimed to equip their lines with automatic printer applicators, but also required a solution that could interface with their accounting software. The challenge was to find a system that could read a 2D code on pallets at the stretch wrapper, track the pallet, and flag any pallets with unread barcodes for inspection. The pallets could be single or double stacked, and the system needed to be able to differentiate between the two. SPR Packaging sought a system integrator with extensive experience in advanced printing and tracking solutions to provide a complete traceability system.

Transforming insurance pricing while improving driver safety
The Internet of Things (IoT) is revolutionizing the car insurance industry on a scale not seen since the introduction of the car itself. For decades, premiums have been calculated using proxy-based risk assessment models and historical data. Today, a growing number of innovative companies such as Quebec-based Industrielle Alliance are moving to usage-based insurance (UBI) models, driven by the advancement of telematics technologies and smart tracking devices.

MasterCard Improves Customer Experience Through Self-Service Data Prep
Derek Madison, Leader of Business Financial Support at MasterCard, oversees the validation of transactions and cash between two systems, whether they’re MasterCard owned or not. He was charged with identifying new ways to increase efficiency and improve MasterCard processes. At the outset, the 13-person team had to manually reconcile system interfaces using reports that resided on the company’s mainframe. Their first order of business each day was to print 20-30 individual, multi-page reports. Using a ruler to keep their place within each report, they would then hand-key the relevant data, line by line, into Excel for validation. “We’re talking about a task that took 40-80 hours each week,” recalls Madison, “As a growing company with rapidly expanding product offerings, we had to find a better way to prepare this data for analysis.”
