关于客户
德克萨斯州最大的独立学区 (ISD) 之一，为哈里斯县的多个城市、城镇和部分地区提供服务。2018-2019 学年，该学区招收了 40,000 多名学生。两年来，该学区从未遭遇过任何大规模攻击或大量攻击，因此他们认为其内部基础设施（即防火墙）提供的 DDoS 保护足以满足他们的需求。疫情爆发后，他们的需求发生了变化，他们被迫将学生和教师需要通过网络访问的所有内容转移到虚拟环境中。
挑战
德克萨斯州的独立学区 (ISD) 在两年内没有遭受过任何重大攻击或大量攻击，因此他们认为其内部基础设施（即防火墙）提供的 DDoS 保护足以满足其需求。然而，疫情爆发后，他们的需求发生了变化，他们被迫将学生和教师需要访问的所有内容转移到虚拟环境中。在测试期间和开学前，他们没有感受到 DDoS 活动的任何影响，因此他们认为防火墙可以解决这个问题。一旦开学，网络就会被教师、学生和家长等合法用户淹没，他们试图访问虚拟会议、虚拟教室和电子邮件，漏洞开始显现，许多学区的利益相关者无法访问网络。这被确定为非法流量与合法流量共同压垮了系统。
解决方案
ISD 的可信赖合作伙伴向 NETSCOUT Arbor 团队寻求帮助。在初步分析中，他们不确定应该推荐哪种产品，但在与网络运营商讨论后，他们决定选择 AED 2600。ISD 要求进行概念验证 (POC) 或在购买之前先试用和购买。在 POC 期间，他们意识到他们目前的员工没有足够的带宽来管理和维护 AED，因此他们可以通过微调设备来充分利用 NETSCOUT Arbors 来自 ATLAS® 和 ASERT 团队的世界级威胁情报。在 POC 结束时，他们决定聘请 NETSCOUT 的托管服务团队来管理和维护他们的 AED 实施。AED 是一种本地、始终在线的边界防御，可以识别和缓解进入其网络的所有 DDoS 流量。 AED 还将识别并阻止任何试图与外界通信的 IoC，从而消除恶意软件或勒索软件造成的潜在数据泄露。

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.
