American Sound and CybrIQ Partner to Deliver Vulnerability Management for AV Systems

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: American Sound and CybrIQ partner to deliver continuous vulnerability management for AV and collaboration systems.

The partnership pairs CybrIQ’s security scanning platform with American Sound’s software engineering and managed service teams, giving organizations a single path to discover, assess, and remediate vulnerabilities across their audiovisual and collaboration technology.

INDIANAPOLIS, IN — June 8, 2026 — American Sound and CybrIQ today announced a strategic partnership to deliver continuous security scanning and vulnerability management for audiovisual and collaboration systems. CybrIQ provides the software platform that discovers and assesses AV and IoT devices, and American Sound serves as the implementation and managed service partner that deploys it, operates it, and turns its findings into remediation inside client environments.

The joint offering extends vulnerability management to a class of devices that traditional security tooling has rarely reached. Codecs, room controllers, displays, signage players, and other connected AV endpoints often run embedded operating systems and cannot accept managed agents or MDM enrollment used elsewhere in the estate. CybrIQ’s platform identifies these devices, scans them for known vulnerabilities and audiovisual-specific misconfigurations, and produces auditable reporting. American Sound’s engineers and Remote Operations Center act on that reporting, handling deployment, configuration, ongoing CVE monitoring, and the hands-on remediation that saves the day.

For both companies, the partnership reflects a shared commitment to treating AV as connected infrastructure that deserves the same security discipline as the rest of the enterprise. Instead of leaving these systems as an afterthought, the offering gives organizations a defined program for keeping them visible, assessed, and current over time.

“AV has spent too long as a technology stack that nobody was watching,” said Doug Schaefer, Chief Technology Officer at American Sound. “CybrIQ gives us a platform and a tool built to see these devices clearly, and our teams give clients the resources to act on what is discovered. Together, that is a mission-critical outcome for organizations around the globe.”

AV and IoT devices have been some of the most overlooked assets in enterprise security programs. American Sound brings the technical depth and managed service capability to turn CybrIQ’s continuous device intelligence into real outcomes for clients—faster remediation, stronger compliance posture, and a clear picture of everything connected to the network. That is exactly the kind of partnership we were looking for.” said Shai Moshe, Founder and CEO at CybrIQ.

Security scanning and vulnerability management for AV systems is available now through American Sound’s Cybersecurity practice within the Client IT Solutions (CITS) portfolio. Organizations can request an initial assessment through their American Sound account team or at www.asei.com.
