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.

Technology maestro, Kieran Upadrasta: Cloud Computing Attacks On The Rise

As Companies Opt in to Cloud Computing, Security Issues Must Be Considered At All Layers To Avoid Becoming Hacker Playground

Enterprise. Cloud computing. It’s a cost-effective way for businesses to scale up quickly and offer more sophisticated applications. However, public cloud providers introduce a unique set of security challenges for solution providers and with more customers increasingly shifting workloads to the more cost-effective platform the concerns about data loss, hacking and malware  also increase. Businesses can get peace of mind by hiring a credentialed expert with cloud computing security expertise. One such expert, Information Security Governance and Cyber Security Consultant Kieran Upadrastra (www.kieranupadrasta.com) keeps his customers up to date with the most effective architecture improvements for their information security systems while continually reviewing the latest white papers and security threats. 

“Vulnerabilities in the cloud virtual machine environment,” explains Upadrastra. “pose a direct threat to the privacy and security of Cloud services. Some of the main factors that can easily cripple usage of Cloud services are items such as the live migration of data via the Internet, entrusting the provider for data security and privacy, and even vulnerabilities at the browser’s API.”

Specializing in helping companies with incident response, crises management, major incident management, threat analysis and risk management, Upadastra has been able to not only build a reputation of trust as an expert, but has built one of the leading leading cyber security management firms – Cybersecurity CG (www.cybersecuritycg.co.uk) within the cybersecurity and information systems field.

“Adding a level of difficulty to understanding security vulnerabilities in Cloud computing are the layers,” says Upadrastra. “There are so many computations of issues within each layer. Take the Microsoft Azure product. Since it is a trusted environment that can be set up for free, Azure has been abused far more by attackers. Simply put, attackers are familiar with the Microsoft ecosystem and although Microsoft has produced protocols of prevention and patches, it requires vigilance to maintain. The most important thing is that companies maintain good data files on attacker tactics, security incidents, and breaches and share that information to identify between firms more quickly.”

Upadastra and his firm have helped many businesses secure their data and resources. He specializes in reviewing infrastructure and putting together exactly the right team to secure it protecting firms and their data so their bottom line isn't affected.
