About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

musa Technology Partners, One of the Nation's Leading Managed Services Providers, Achieves SOC 2 Type 2 Attestation, Reinforcing Commitment to Data Security and Operational Excellence





The fact that musa was able to achieve SOC 2 Type 2 in such a short amount of time, and with no findings (major or minor), shows our team's commitment to the process.

BOSTON, MA, May 13, 2025 /24-7PressRelease/ -- musa Technology Partners, a leading provider of managed IT and cloud services, announced that it has successfully completed its System and Organization Controls (SOC) 2® Type 2 examination, conducted by an independent third-party auditing firm. This achievement demonstrates musa's ongoing commitment to the highest standards of information security and controls.

SOC 2 Type 2 attestation is a rigorous, industry-recognized framework developed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). More vigorous than SOC 2 Type 1, it evaluates an organization's internal controls over a specified period—typically 3 to 12 months—based on the Trust Services Criteria. This attestation assures customers and partners that musa Technology Partners has implemented effective security measures and operational procedures that are maintained over time.

"Achieving SOC2 Type 2 is musa's commitment to our clients and partners that we are doing things correctly. There are a lot of MSPs to choose from and not much in the way of industry regulation, which is concerning for such a critical role with access to the most sensitive information our clients hold – from scientific through HR and finance. By achieving our SOC 2 Type 2 attestation our partners have the comfort of knowing that not only do we have sufficient procedures that have been vetted by an external authority, but we also have the proof, from an independent auditor, that those procedures are being followed," said Joshua Campbell, COO, musa Technology Partners.

SOC 2 Type 2 compliance strengthens overall cybersecurity posture by validating that security controls are not only well-designed but consistently operated to protect client data against evolving threats. The benefits of this are pivotal for organizations working with sensitive data and intellectual property as the threats within the cybersecurity landscapes continue to grow and be more intricate.

Jeff Beard, Director, Engineering and Operations, says, "As organizations mature, they inevitably face increasing demands for robust cybersecurity and risk management. These demands often stem from business partnerships with requiring specific technical controls, clinical research involving protected health information, or regulatory compliance requirements like Sarbanes-Oxley. Such requirements lead to greater scrutiny of service providers and suppliers. By maintaining strong security policies, procedures, and SOC 2 Type 2 attestation, we distinguish ourselves from many service providers who lack these essential controls, making us better positioned to support our clients' evolving needs."

Campbell adds, "Cyber security and compliance are constantly evolving needs for the companies that we support. Cyber insurance carriers are raising rates and dropping coverage for companies who do not meet the increasing requirements. Our SOC 2 Type 2 work puts our clients in the position to be sure that when asked by insurance companies or partners if they have vetted their MSP, they can answer with a resounding 'YES'."

The audit confirms that musa Technology Partners not only designed robust security controls but also operated them consistently and effectively over the audit period. This distinction is especially critical for clients in regulated industries, such as finance and life sciences, where data protection is paramount.

Key highlights of the SOC 2 Type 2 report include:
• Proven effectiveness of access controls and data encryption
• Resilience of infrastructure against security threats
• Documented incident response procedures
• Reliable system uptime and performance monitoring
• Confirmation processes are being followed

musa Technology Partners' SOC 2 Type 2 report is available upon request under NDA to clients and partners seeking assurance regarding the company's controls and practices.
