Latin America. This standard provides clear and up-to-date guidance and practices for securing networked AV systems. This includes the recognition of risks in audiovisual systems and the development of a mitigation management plan to address these risks.
Responsibility for the development of such a plan should include the AV team, integrators, consultants and manufacturers; each of them has an important role in the process. Companies that follow the steps outlined in this practice can form a baseline for establishing a robust antivirus security management program, regardless of their size or experience.
AVIXA's standards development process is accredited by ANSI, a private non-profit organization that administers and coordinates voluntary standardization and conformity assessment systems in the United States. ANSI is the only U.S. representative of the two major international standardization organizations: the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and, through the National Committee (USNC), the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).
The accreditation given by ANSI guarantees that the procedures used by AVIXA are in accordance with the development of the American National Standards and comply with the essential requirements of the Institute for openness, balance, consensus, right of appeal and due process of law.
