THE INDUSTRY & COMPANY
Data security is a core need for companies in manufacturing
Many companies will often invest heavily in research and development to create innovative products, processes, and designs that impact their competitive advantage. At the same time, it’s inevitable for these companies to exchange sensitive information with suppliers, contractors, and partners as part of the supply chain. Because of that, data security and cyber security are essential to safeguarding IP from leaks, theft, or espionage, which can harm a company's reputation and revenue.
THE CHALLENGE & PAIN POINTS
Devices with hardware-based restrictions often do not meet security standards
For this particular manufacturing company, their current devices were simply not built with data security as a top-priority. Since they were using standard-grade laptops, all the I/O ports were open without doors, which was not secure enough for their liking. Since they dealt with confidential information, the device needed to be highly secure, which meant ensuring that the user could not use the data transfer function to download or upload information.
THE TAILORED SOLUTION
Tailor-made laptops offer more flexibility and protection
The company used a Getac S410 laptop to provide customer support and maintenance on their own high-tech solution. To meet their needs of enhanced data and cyber security protection, the device was customized with two main features:
1) BIOS settings: including a BIOS password setting and a BIOS enable/disable function for WiFi, Bluetooth, 4G, and USB ports
2) A secure door to block the I/O port: this was done with a bracket cover and a special temper screw that allowed for the flexibility to open the door when needed.
This was thoughtfully done to lower the device management effort by creating a general configuration. That way, based on their own customer’s requirements, they could decide to enable or disable the functions or the I/O ports easily.
THE RESULTS & BENEFITS
Custom solutions lower maintenance costs, time, and effort in the long run
Getac’s premium service support provided advice every step of the way and allowed this company to engineer a solution tailored to its exact needs while maintaining the full functionality and ruggedness of the S410 device. By providing a custom tablet that met their data and cyber security requirements, Getac was able to help lower the time, effort, and cost associated with maintaining these IT devices. High-level that gave them peace of mind and allowed them to focus more energy on innovating their services.
