Often by the time you’re aware of a problem, it’s too late, and disaster has already struck. You’re forced to pick up the pieces—downtime, reduced productivity and lost data.
When your PC goes down, IT comes to the rescue. That’s a reactive approach. In many cases, IT can predict when your PC will fail, based on remote monitoring and diagnostics.
Wouldn’t it be nice if there were a way to fix mass spectrometer issues before they snowballed into an instrument failure? This is where LC-MS remote monitoring comes in.
Mass spec remote monitoring allows your team to observe the current health your system efficiently—from anywhere, at any time. That means fewer surprises and maximized uptime.
Your SCIEX LC-MS systems are compatible with StatusScope® Remote Monitoring service. If you have a service or support contract, you just need to have it turned on by your SCIEX service professional. Enabling the StatusScope service will also require some help from your IT department.
A Case for StatusScope Remote MonitoringWhile most IT teams are familiar with the benefits of remote monitoring, network security and stability are their highest priority. Check out the following FAQ’s to help you explain the StatusScope service to your IT department, and address their concerns.
Question: How can I convince my IT team that StatusScope Remote Monitoring is secure?Answer: The StatusScope Remote Monitoring is unidirectional. This means all communication is initiated from inside your firewall. All communication is outbound-only, through port 443 with end-to-end encryption.
Only instrument operating parameters are monitored. Proprietary data is safe and not transmitted.
Question: What about encryption standards?Answer: All SSL communication supports only strong encryption standards (TLS 1.2 only) with no downgrade negotiation
StatusScope Remote Monitoring only supports Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.2), with no downgrade negotiation. Thus, you can be confident that all your instrument operating parameters are within a highly secure environment.
Question: I need to be sure my research data is secure. How do I ensure it won’t get leaked?Answer: Only instrument operating parameters are monitored. Proprietary data is safe. SCIEX does not collect or retain any analytic or assay information from connected devices.
Question: How do I know SCIEX is a reliable cloud provider?Answer: StatusScope Remote Monitoring is built on the Axeda Machine Cloud platform from PTC Corp, an industry leader in IoT. PTC has Tier 1 data centers in global locations and is ISO 27001 certified. SCIEX is not running its own cloud; all data transactions happen in the PTC cloud.
Question: I like the idea of mass spec remote monitoring services, but how do I convince my IT team to take on the project?Answer: Your IT Team can implement the StatusScope Remote Monitoring Services with little effort. IT only needs to facilitate outbound HTTPS traffic. There is no need to open any new ports. A small number of external IP addresses need to be whitelisted for the StatusScope service to work.
Question: With all the data my research generates, how do I know StatusScope Remote Monitoring will not fill up our bandwidth?Answer: StatusScope requires low bandwidth, similar to someone performing occasional web browsing.
For more than 20 years, the CDCO has supported academic, commercial, and not‑for‑profit drug discovery programs with deep expertise in pharmaceutical lead optimization. Within the bioanalytical group, their role is to enable rapid and reliable decision‑making through quantitative analysis of candidate drugs in biological matrices.
PFAS are increasingly at the center of regulatory change, scientific research, and industry discussion worldwide. As analytical capabilities improve and expectations around environmental responsibility continue to evolve, understanding the role PFAS play, and how they are being addressed, has never been more important. This blog provides an overview of what PFAS are, why they matter, and how responses from regulators and industry are changing.
Pesticides are widely used in agriculture to protect crops and maintain yield, but their presence in food must be carefully monitored. To safeguard consumers, regulatory authorities worldwide set maximum residue limits (MRLs), often at very low concentrations and across a wide range of compound classes.
