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.

Clayton County Public Schools Protects Critical Data From Ransomware Attacks with SaaS Data Isolation and Recovery Offering from Cohesity

By: via Business Wire

Georgia School District Leverages Cohesity FortKnox SaaS Offering for Added Protection Against Ransomware and Other Cyberattacks

Cohesity, a leader in next-gen data management, today announced that Clayton County Public Schools (CCPS) has adopted Cohesity FortKnox, a SaaS data isolation and recovery solution, to protect and rapidly recover data in the event of a cyberattack such as a ransomware attack. CCPS is the fifth largest school district in Georgia, serving over 50,000 students.

The Cohesity FortKnox SaaS offering is designed so that the school district’s critical data can easily be saved and accessed through a virtually air-gapped and immutable data copy stored in the cloud.

If the school district is hit by a cyberattack, this copy can help the district quickly recover data, avoid paying the ransom, and keep schools operating as efficiently as possible. The addition of Cohesity FortKnox also enabled the district to qualify for cyber insurance, while improving business continuity, and offering greater efficiency, time, and cost savings.

“Like many enterprise environments, we at Clayton County Public Schools were looking to update our 3-2-1 backup strategy to enhance cyber resiliency and protect against increasingly sophisticated ransomware attacks. The simplicity and convenience of the Cohesity FortKnox SaaS offering was just what we needed to achieve this while reducing operational complexity and meeting demanding SLAs,” said Kurt Pritchett, senior network engineer, Clayton County Public Schools. “With Cohesity FortKnox, we now have an isolated, immutable copy of our critical data in the cloud without having to manage an offsite data vault ourselves, saving a lot of time and budget that can be utilized to better serve our students and teachers.”

Traditional do-it-yourself offerings to create a data vault, such as shipping tape offsite or maintaining parallel infrastructure are ill suited for today’s multicloud, hybrid world. Cohesity FortKnox offers an easy-to-use, managed solution that eliminates much of the complexity and overhead of traditional offerings, while helping meet stringent recovery service level agreements (SLAs). Cohesity FortKnox helps maximize the school district’s IT resources by supplementing the IT team’s existing skill sets with proactive threat monitoring and protection combined in one consolidated interface.

“Honestly, it doesn’t get any easier than this. SaaS solutions are what every K-12 needs when you are hard-pressed to find the right talent pool. It was easy and fast to deploy and has simplified our entire environment. With Cohesity FortKnox, we were able to vault all our data to the cloud in a couple of hours without having to deal with the overhead of managing cloud storage buckets ourselves,” adds Pritchett.

Cohesity FortKnox

Cohesity FortKnox is a SaaS data isolation and recovery offering that is part of Cohesity’s Data Management as a Service portfolio of offerings that run on Amazon Web Services (AWS). Cohesity FortKnox is designed to provide an additional layer of off-site protection through geographical, network, and management isolation, while dramatically simplifying operations and lowering costs compared to magnetic-tape and self-managed data vaults.
