In traditional AV systems, most of them are button-type or local control devices. Operations such as signal source switching can only be performed manually on the hardware. Of course, this prevents the system from being attacked by remote hackers, but it is undeniable that This greatly limits the convenience and functionality of the system.
Whether it is a traditional AV or an IP-based AV, the most useful AV products should have a command and control port that can remotely control the operation of the box, such as opening and closing or switching signal sources. For example, when it comes to touch panels or AV processors, a certain way can be used for remote command and control.
The signaling control layer can be protected by measures such as permissions, passwords or encryption. Whether it is a traditional AV product or AV Over IP product, it should bear the same security protection responsibility.
Video and audio content security
Will private assets like streaming media cameras be intercepted artificially? of course. Any video or audio input may face such problems, whether the video or audio is based on circuit-based analog or digital wiring, or based on the form of data packets on the IP network, in both cases, the audio and video signal source is possible Be cracked and accessed.
In terms of protecting video and audio, there is no substitute for rich expertise and responsible deployment. In fact, some people believe that the ability to encrypt packetized video and audio is better than traditional baseband video if they are worried that someone might try to invade and spy on these sources. It is worth noting that IP security issues have existed for a long time, and IP data and telephony have undergone multiple generations of continuous iterative improvements. In addition to information about IP network security and content encryption, there are many well-known consultants and experts in the security field who can help you-whether your requirements are complex or simple.
Cyber security
How to deploy an IPAV system is a question worth exploring. IP-based AV systems can be deployed on completely independent and isolated networks. Such networks will never coexist with data packets from other companies' data networks or communication networks. Or, deploy on the existing network infrastructure. Whether using a proprietary network or existing network facilities, the implementation and deployment of the AV system can be completed without affecting the security of the IT network. Nowadays, in many enterprises, the ability to integrate data, communication and AV use has often become a driving factor for the reinstallation or deployment of AV systems and promotes the development of the AV industry.
