Maintaining the global IT infrastructure necessary for Manitowoc’s business operations is vital to the company’s continued success. A central part of those efforts is ensuring that its hundreds of servers and thousands of workstations are maintained within its internal IT security policy, that misconfigurations are spotted and fixed, and that outdated patch levels are made current. This, most security experts agree, will ensure that systems not only run more smoothly, but also make them resilient to attack and infiltration.Click here to read more on Manitowoc Company, Inc

Case Study about AnnAik Limited

AnnAik manufactures high-pressure forged steel fittings, flanges, and piping products that are used in shipbuilding, oil and gas, semiconductors, food processing, and other industries. After becoming a publicly listed company on the Singapore stock exchange in 2003, AnnAik expanded its business upstream—opening manufacturing plants in China—and downstream—expanding into engineering construction and environmental business.
