Audiovisual solutions like collaboration systems, room scheduling panels and more are now fully networked IT assets. This means one thing: they must follow the same cybersecurity practices as every other device on your network. In this episode of Tech in 2, Percy Pineda breaks down how unsecured AV devices can create hidden vulnerabilities – and how to prevent them. Here are five best practices: 1️⃣ Keep firmware and software updated 2️⃣ Use strong passwords and MFA 3️⃣ Segment your network with dedicated VLANs 4️⃣ Limit admin access 5️⃣ Partner with AV providers who take security seriously Cybersecurity is part of AV. Protecting your systems means protecting your people, your meetings, and your data. Because great AV experiences begin with great security.
