关于客户
德克萨斯大学 MD 安德森癌症中心位于德克萨斯州休斯顿德克萨斯医学中心庞大的校园内。它是世界上最受尊敬的中心之一，专门致力于癌症患者护理、研究、教育和预防。该中心最初由德克萨斯州立法机构于 1941 年创建，现已发展成为 1971 年《国家癌症法案》指定的全国最初的三个综合癌症中心之一。如今，MD 安德森中心是 40 个此类中心之一，并荣获享有盛誉的“嘉许认证”——医疗机构认证联合委员会给予的最高评级。 MD 安德森癌症中心开创了多学科癌症治疗的先河，并以保护患者隐私而自豪。
挑战
德克萨斯大学 MD 安德森癌症中心是世界上最受尊敬的专门致力于癌症患者护理、研究、教育和预防的中心之一，在维护患者隐私方面面临着重大挑战。该中心每年接待约 65,000 名患者，即使在联邦和州法规强制执行之前，该中心始终优先考虑患者隐私。作为道德准则的一部分，患者信息是保密的，未经患者同意不得向第三方透露。然而，随着互联网的出现及其带来的机遇，例如远程医疗、远程访问患者记录、与患者的主治医生进行远程会诊以及移动医疗服务，该中心必须找到一种方法来平衡这些技术进步与医疗保健服务。 HIPAA 的严格要求。这一挑战不仅是由于患者数量庞大，而且还因为大量员工、志愿者、学生、博士后研究员和其他需要获取教育和远程学习机会信息的人。
解决方案
为了应对这一挑战，MD Anderson 求助于 Check Point Software Technologies 及其 VPN-1 Pro 产品。该解决方案紧密集成了 FireWall-1 和 VPN-1，支持所有部署类型，包括远程访问、站点到站点连接和外联网 VPN。它还提供简单的一键式 VPN 部署和安全管理架构 (SMART)，使安全策略的所有元素都可以从单个控制台进行定义和管理。该解决方案部署在诺基亚 IP 安全平台上，之所以选择该平台是因为其固有的安全性和经过特殊强化的 IPSO 操作系统。选择该平台的另一个原因是其可靠性、卓越的性能，以及它预加载和预配置的 VPN-1 Pro，使部署快速且几乎万无一失。 Check Point 和诺基亚之间的密切合作产生了一个解决方案，该解决方案提供卓越的可靠性、可扩展性和高可用性，满足 MD 安德森的需求。

Data Capture for Afghanistan Forces
Electronic equipments on the field of Afghanistan provided information on the status of the vehicle and to identify potential threats surrounding it to the British Force. The monitoring and interpretation of this data requires robust and sophisticated digitization for data capture and communication.

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.

Major Aerospace Company Automates Asset Management
The O&M division of an aerospace and global security company was using spreadsheets to manually track more than 3,000 assets assigned to students and staff. Maintaining audit trails for this high volume of equipment became increasingly time-consuming and challenging. The chore involved knowing precisely what equipment was on hand, what had been issued, its location and the name of the custodial owner of each item. Every aspect of this task was carried owner of each item. Every aspect of this task was carried out by individuals with spreadsheets. Manually documenting the full lifecycle of each asset added to the burden. This included tracking maintenance requirements and records, incidents and damages, repairs, calibrations, depreciation, and end-of-life data.

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.
