rAVe Security Edition

Hi #AVtweeps! I hope you’re all doing well! It’s our very last issue of the security newsletter for the year, and even though we haven’t been sending this one for very long, I’m so proud of how it’s grown over the past year and how much security news we’re covering!


You all are the biggest reason it’s growing, so thank you! I am so very excited to see how the security industry grows and changes over the next year (and I’m talking both physical and cyber here) and I believe we will see it become even more closely tied with AV.


By the way, did you know we did a whole day event just for security? It was our security symposium, and we covered a lot of ground. Make sure to read the wrap-up article here from Peyton Scheele and you can also watch the full day of content on demand if you would like!


Enjoy and happy holidays!
