Room Alert, AVTECH, and Security

Security is a critical component in every business continuity plan. That is why our Room Alert products offer the latest in security features, and why as a company AVTECH has several security measures and policies in place to protect both our staff as well as our customers around the world.

Room Alert Security Features

Our Room Alert PRO monitors offer a wide range of security features that help keep our customers data and networks protected. With so many industries and organizations adopting a “Shields Up” stance we want our Room Alert monitors to be some of the most secure appliances on our customers network. Everyone from government and military, to healthcare, to banking and finance, to education and more are understandably concerned with ensuring their network and data security.

All Room Alert PRO monitors offer the following security and data privacy features:

• 2048-bit encryption 
• SNMP versions 1, 2c, and 3 
• HTTPS/SSL web interface 
• SSL/TLS email notifications 
• SSL push for data to reach the Room Alert Account online portal
• Secure and advanced alerting via email, email-to-SMS, SNMP, JSON, HTTP Post, webpage update and more

These features are crucial for organizations that wish to follow security best practices such as DFARS, NIST SP 800-171 and ISO/IEC 27000.

Additionally, all Room Alert monitors use purpose built firmware that was developed and supported by our Engineering team at AVTECH. Room Alert monitor firmware does not use common operating systems or “off the shelf” utilities that have the potential to be exploited by external factors. Room Alert runs very specific firmware that is designed to only provide the functions the devices need to monitor and report on environment factors. For more information, please see:

AVTECH’s Corporate Security Policies

With customers in over 185 countries, we take security measures & precautions very seriously here at AVTECH to protect our corporate data and network, as well as the data of our customers.

AVTECH targets NIST 800-171 compliance for cybersecurity. This is important for all of our customers as it will ensure them that we are safeguarding the confidentiality of controlled unclassified information, which is of particular interest to those customers in government, military, and banking & finance. For more information on customer data privacy, click here to read our Privacy Notice.

When GDPR standards were introduced in the European Union, we undertook extensive research into the requirements and updated all our internal policies to ensure that we are in GDPR compliance. You can learn more about that research and policies here –  Taking Your Privacy Seriously – GDPR, Cybersecurity, and More.

Security and data privacy starts with your employees, no matter what type or size organization you are. Every AVTECH employee is required to undergo ongoing security training throughout the year so our team is cognizant of current potential threats, how to recognize them, and how to ensure our data and network remains secure.

We also work with an external security & data privacy management vendor to audit our network, processes and policies in an ongoing manner to ensure we meet accepted standards and certifications. It is our goal to maintain as secure a network as possible to protect our staff and our customer data from external threats.

Security is never a “set and forget” process for AVTECH with our internal policies as well as our Room Alert hardware and software, including our online Room Alert Account dashboard as well as our local Room Alert Manager software. You can rest assured that we continue to make security a priority and pledge to our customers that we will always do our best to protect them in every way we can.
