关于客户
Equinix 是一家总部位于加利福尼亚州雷德伍德城的科技公司。该公司拥有 4,100 名员工，年收入达 24 亿美元。Equinix 采用了新一代云服务，使其员工能够快速轻松地采用在线工具，从而提高工作效率。然而，该公司在管理其影子 IT 云使用情况以及为 Box 实施安全、合规和治理政策方面面临挑战。
挑战
科技公司 Equinix 在识别员工使用的云服务方面面临挑战。批准新云服务的过程非常耗时，需要由三名安全专家组成的小型团队进行大约 30 个小时的尽职调查。该团队必须手动验证安全实践并评估风险因素，这非常繁重。此外，他们缺乏管理专注于云服务风险的日志文件的工具。该公司需要一种工具，可以发现和识别正在使用的所有云服务，减少审查云服务的时间和成本，提供异常检测以发现可能表明数据泄露的行为，并防止访问高风险云服务。
解决方案
Equinix 利用 Skyhigh 的云访问安全代理来发现其云服务足迹的真实范围，并使新云服务的冗长审批流程更加高效。使用 Skyhigh，Equinix 能够发现所有正在使用的云服务并快速评估其风险。这使 Equinix 能够实施支持其业务部门各种用例的新服务。该公司还利用 Skyhigh 与其防火墙和代理的集成来提供即时教育信息，指导用户远离高风险服务，转而使用企业认可的服务，例如 Box。通过有效管理影子 IT 云的使用，他们将重点转向为其认可的服务实施安全、合规和治理政策。通过将 Skyhigh for Box 添加到 IT 产品组合中，Equinix 能够确保遵守内部政策和行业法规。

Enel Secures Italian Power Generation Network
Electric energy operators around the world are working to increase the reliability and cyber resiliency of their systems. This includes Enel, a global power company that manages and monitors the Italian power grid. This grid:• Serves 31 million customers• Has a net installed energy capacity exceeding 31 gigawatts• Includes more than 500 power generation plants,including hydroelectric, thermoelectric, and wind• Is managed and monitored by Enel 24/7/365• Is operated by Terna, the Italian Transmission System Operator (TSO)Enel is responsible for the availability of the grid’s underlying ICS and industrial network. It also manages Regional Control Centers and Interconnection Centers which connect with the TSO. The TSO manages the flow of energy to the grid plus controls and remotely regulates the power generation of power plants, increasing and decreasing power production as required. The complex system of interaction and cooperation between Enel and the TSO has strong security implications as well as operational and business challenges.

Securing the Connected Car Ecosystem
In-vehicle communications and entertainment system hosts high-value or sensitive applications. API libraries facilitate communication and sharing of vehicle data. These API libraries are vulnerable to reverse engineering and tampering attacks and may even result in loss of passenger safety. Attackers can inject malware that may be able to migrate to other in-car networks such as the controller-area-network (CAN) bus which links to the vehicle’s critical systems. Software provided for dealers to interface with cars through the OBD2 port is vulnerable to reverse engineering and tampering attacks. Hackers may be able to abuse these tools to inject malicious code into the ECUs and CAN bus. Attackers can lift the cryptographic keys used, and use that to build their own rogue apps/software. Their cloned version of the original app/software may have altered functionality, and may intend to gain access to other in-car networks.

Secure and Cloud-based Data Marketplace
The great promise of new connected concepts of industry like 'Industry 4.0' is their ability to deliver a historically unparalleled level of responsiveness and flexibility. While modern supply chains are already heavily integrated and designed to be fluid and fast moving, a large swathe of manufacturing still remains beholden to economies of scale, large production runs, and careful preplanning.The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is set to change this by allowing small-batch or even custom manufacturing on a truly industrial scale. With machines whose functions are not set in stone, but flexible and determined by their operating software and with a new form of connectivity bringing industrial engineers, product manufacturers, and end users closer together than ever before. Ad-hoc adjustments to automotive parts, for example, during active product runs or the bespoke manufacturing of custom sneakers become very viable options indeed.Much of this remains a theoretical vision, but IUNO, the German national reference project for IT security in Industry 4.0 demonstrates the new capabilities in action with a secure technology data marketplace running a smart drinks mixer.

Expedia Hosted by 2lemetry Through AWS
Expedia is committed to continuous innovation, technology, and platform improvements to create a great experience for its customers. The Expedia Worldwide Engineering (EWE) organization supports all websites under the Expedia brand. Expedia began using Amazon Web Services (AWS) in 2010 to launch Expedia Suggest Service (ESS), a typeahead suggestion service that helps customers enter travel, search, and location information correctly. According to the company’s metrics, an error page is the main reason for site abandonment. Expedia wanted global users to find what they were looking for quickly and without errors. At the time, Expedia operated all its services from data centers in Chandler, AZ. The engineering team realized that they had to run ESS in locations physically close to customers to enable a quick and responsive service with minimal network latency.

OTA Software Updates for Smart Energy (gridX)
gridX has a requirement for over-the-air software updates for their gridBox devices and used the Yocto Project for their builds. The driver for the requirement was having the ability to quickly support new features, as well as deploying bug fixed and path known security vulnerabilities. New software updates with a US stick manually to all gridBox devices in the field would be prohibitively expensive and labor-intensive.

Transformed IT Infrastructure Improves Business Agility
A global security, storage, and systems management software provider planned to demerge into two separate companies. To prepare, it undertook a major overhaul of its IT infrastructure and operations strategy. A key requirement: streamlining the Hosting Group, which handled compute, storage, and middleware operations. These functions had grown complex and had a wide geographic distribution. The company planned to bring them under closer in-house management.The company looked to increase its business agility so it could quickly and creatively respond to customer demands with improved internal collaboration and optimized go-to- market and IT service delivery capabilities. Modernizing IT functions, and making them more responsive, was critical to achieving these goals.
