关于客户
Leader Summaries S.L. is a company founded in 2002 and headquartered in Madrid, Spain. The company operates in the Media & Entertainment industry, providing a library of business summary books for professionals around the world through its website, www.leadersummaries.com. The website attracts over 21,000 unique visitors per day who view and download a library of volumes in areas such as Management Skills, Innovation, Business Leadership, General Management, Marketing & Sales, and Human Resources. Leader Summaries leverages a subscription model for its revenue generation, which has traditionally worked well as customers can subscribe and fulfill their research goals easily at leadersummaries.com. The website serves a customer base that spans six continents. However, with the majority of their content published in Spanish, Leader Summaries earns the majority of subscriber revenue from loyal readers in Spain and the countries of South America.
挑战
Leader Summaries, a company providing business summary library books for professionals, was facing a significant challenge with its website performance. The company's website, leadersummaries.com, was experiencing a surge in popularity across South America. However, many subscribers were visiting the website from telecom networks that delivered unreliable performance. As subscriber volumes grew, so did the time it took to deliver content from the Leader Summaries datacenter in Spain to users in South America. This resulted in latency-induced delays driving page-load times up to 20 seconds in areas of Argentina, Brazil, Chile, and Peru. The poor website performance led to a rise in customer complaints and cancelled subscriptions, placing the company's entire business model at risk.
解决方案
To address the issue, Leader Summaries decided to use a Content Delivery Network (CDN) to boost performance everywhere while enabling the fastest deployment possible. The company evaluated various CDN options, focusing on performance, data security, and global presence. The company chose CDNetworks Global CDN due to its ability to drastically improve page download and application speeds across South America. CDNetworks also provided robust data security, specifically in the management of SSL infrastructure. The unified CDNetworks architecture enables automated SSL security, which makes necessary security functionality as fast as possible. The implementation of leadersummaries.com onto the CDNetworks global infrastructure improved website and content download times by 80-85 percent across the countries of South America and all other world regions.

Remote Temperature Monitoring of Perishable Goods Saves Money
RMONI was facing temperature monitoring challenges in a cold chain business. A cold chain must be established and maintained to ensure goods have been properly refrigerated during every step of the process, making temperature monitoring a critical business function. Manual registration practice can be very costly, labor intensive and prone to mistakes.

Case Study
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.

Retail Uses RFID to Enable Cold Chain Monitoring
Like most grocery retailers, Hy-Vee is faced with the challenge of providing the highest quality products to its shoppers. Shoppers want the longest possible shelf life from perishable products and expect a consistent product experience each time they shop. Controlling the quality of products sold leads to shopper loyalty, which is of paramount importance to the success of Hy-Vee. Before products arrive in stores, Hy-Vee's distribution centers (DCs) handle items including dairy products, fresh meats, seafood, deli items, produce and frozen goods, all of which have different temperature needs and sensitivities. During transit from suppliers to DCs, Hy-Vee has limited visibility and temperature management abilities due to large amount of supplier managed transportation. For instance, during a week-long transit, a supplier's carrier equipment may malfunction, causing an item to thaw and then refreeze once repairs are made. Hy-Vee sought help from TempTRIP, an RFID solution provider that focuses on shipping, storage, receiving, and temperature control. TempTRIP's EPC RFID tags use Impinj chips to monitor and report temperature readings throughout the shipping and receiving process. The tags can also be re-configured and re-used, a unique feature within the current market of temperature monitoring devices.
