We believe that <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cisco.com\/c\/en\/us\/products\/security\/what-is-cybersecurity.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">cybersecurity<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is crucial for all organizations because without it, you\u2019re not actively protecting any and all sensitive information, such as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.upguard.com\/blog\/personally-identifiable-information-pii\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">personally identifiable information (PII)<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This means that your data is out in cyberspace where cybercriminals will try to steal it and potentially use it against you. By securely protecting your company, employee, customer and personal data, you\u2019re helping to prevent costly and irreversible downtime.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Any business that wants to be successful should evaluate all potential risks for cybersecurity threats in a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/avtech.com\/articles\/18896\/effective-business-continuity-leaves-no-ambiguity\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Business Continuity Plan<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. In this clear and concise written document, you should identify all of the specifics on how to handle any cyberthreats that may come up. A cybersecurity threat is an attack where someone or something is trying to steal your sensitive information. Understanding and following these procedures within your organization will ensure you\u2019re dramatically minimizing the likelihood and extent of losing employee productivity, company reputation, revenue, resources, data and more. In today\u2019s world where technology and online presence is highly prevalent, it\u2019s increasingly critical to protect all information you have in cyberspace so others cannot access it and cause harm or damage.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the ways that we internally emphasize the importance of cybersecurity to our team is by requiring every employee of AVTECH to engage in frequent cybersecurity training. Our extensive cybersecurity training aims to educate our employees on how to make safe and responsible decisions regarding sensitive information and data. This includes but is not limited to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.consumer.ftc.gov\/articles\/how-recognize-and-avoid-phishing-scams\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">phishing<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> via emails, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/us-cert.cisa.gov\/Ransomware\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ransomware<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/wirecutter\/blog\/why-you-need-a-password-manager-yes-you\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">password managers<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and much more.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another way we highlight Cybersecurity Awareness is with our proactive environment monitoring Room Alert monitors, sensors, accessories and services. Our advanced and secure Room Alert environment monitoring has always kept customer data and information private and secure. Since 1988 AVTECH has been dedicated to preventing and minimizing environment-related downtime, data loss and more for our Room Alert users.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This year, the theme for National Cybersecurity Awareness Month is \u201cDo Your Part. #BeCyberSmart.\u201d According to the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cisa.gov\/national-cyber-security-awareness-month\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CISA<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, \u201cThis theme encourages individuals and organizations to own their role in protecting their part of cyberspace, stressing personal accountability and the importance of taking proactive steps to enhance cybersecurity.\u201d We\u2019re proud to offer our Room Alert customers with products and services that put into practice all of the intentions behind National Cybersecurity Awareness Month. We always want to take every opportunity to show our customers that they are safe and protected with Room Alert environment monitoring.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><b>Room Alert Environment Monitoring in 2020<\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Though expressing a clear understanding of cybersecurity awareness through our Room Alert product line is nothing new, this year we are celebrating National Cybersecurity Awareness Month with more advanced and secure environmental monitoring than ever before. In January of this year, we launched the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/avtech.com\/articles\/17163\/advanced-security-encryption-room-alert-32s\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Room Alert 32S<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The Room Alert 32S was created out of a need to offer Advanced Security, Data Encryption and more in our highest capacity Room Alert available. To design this product and the basis of our \u201cS\u201d models, we built off of the success of our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/avtech.com\/Products\/Environment_Monitors\/Room_Alert_32E.htm\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Room Alert 32E<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> while also expanding additional features for a targeted focus on security and secure connections. This was especially for our users who look to follow DFARS, NIST SP 800-171 and ISO\/IEC 27000 best practices. Some of the benefits of the Room Alert 32S are\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">HTTPS\/SSL web interface\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SSL\/TLS email notifications\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SSL push for data to reach the Room Alert Account online portal\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">SNMP v1, 2c and 3\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Secure &amp; Authenticated firmware updates<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2048-bit encryption and more\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We saw unprecedented success with the Room Alert 32S, so we didn\u2019t stop there. In July of this year, we launched the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/avtech.com\/articles\/19062\/room-alert-pro-line-room-alert-12s\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Room Alert 12S<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The Room Alert 12S provides Room Alert customers with secure and advanced environment monitoring in a smaller, more compact monitor, which is ideal for monitoring facilities that require less sensor capacity. The Room Alert 12S is the best solution for proactive environment monitoring in secure settings such as Banking, Government (Military) and Telecom facilities. Just like the Room Alert 32S, the Room Alert 12S also offers security options so users can meet FCC, among other, industry requirements. The Room Alert 12S includes all of the same high-level features as the Room Alert 32S listed above.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><b>The Room Alert PRO Line<\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/avtech.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/room-alert-PRO-screenshot.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19508\" width=\"244\" height=\"132\" srcset=\"https:\/\/avtech.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/room-alert-PRO-screenshot.png 630w, https:\/\/avtech.com\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/room-alert-PRO-screenshot-300x163.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 244px) 100vw, 244px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Together these two environment monitors, the Room Alert 32S and the Room Alert 12S, make up a new and unbeatable level of professional environment monitoring, the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/avtech.com\/articles\/19339\/introducing-highest-security-room-alert-pro-line\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Room Alert PRO Line<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The Room Alert PRO Line provides superior monitoring to customers who want to prevent and minimize threats of costly environment-related downtime while\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keeping customer and employee data secure\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ensuring high performance\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Maintaining a large number of users\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Managing busy networks<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Following DFARS, NIST SP 800-171 and ISO\/IEC 27000 best practices\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Room Alert 32S was designed with larger facilities in mind, because that is where many different kinds of environment conditions may need to be monitored. The Room Alert 12S on the other hand, was designed with smaller facilities in mind as it is best suited for spaces that require less sensor capacity. Both with the Room Alert 32S and the Room Alert 12S, we\u2019ve seen customers thrilled to receive environment monitoring that meets their safety and security needs. In the future, we look to expand our Room Alert PRO Line with more options for advanced and security environment monitoring.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><b>Contact Us<\/b><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have any questions about Room Alert or want additional information on how AVTECH keeps the data we have about you safe, please <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/AVTECHVideoChannel\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">visit our YouTube Channel<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or visit our <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.avtech.com\/contact\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Contact page<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> for a free consultation with one of our dedicated Product Specialists today!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last year we wrote an article for National Cybersecurity Awareness month to detail some of the ways that we demonstrate an understanding of Cybersecurity Awareness all year long here at AVTECH, both to keep our company safe internally as well as our customers safe.
