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.

DAT’s New Risk Assessment Engine Enables Unprecedented Industry Trust and Transparency

By: via Business Wire

Proprietary data, AI-powered engine will automate the vetting process

DAT Freight & Analytics today introduced an innovative new risk assessment engine that uses artificial intelligence and DAT’s extensive proprietary data to give customers an unprecedented level of insight into a potential partner’s risk profile and performance.

The announcement was made at DATCON23, DAT’s annual conference and networking event for freight brokers and shippers.

DAT’s new risk assessment engine uses machine learning and AI to aggregate data and produce the industry’s most comprehensive, real-time measure of a motor carrier’s risk exposure to a broker. The engine factors several types of information into its assessment:

  • Monitors data exclusive to DAT, including search and posting behaviors on DAT One.
  • Continuously checks the completeness and accuracy of carrier profile information.
  • Automatically flags suspicious activity.

By integrating DAT's existing Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) with Verosint’s (DAT’s ID verification vendor) in-depth identity verification data, we can now provide an unparalleled assessment of risk, ensuring even tighter access to the DAT marketplace.

As cyber threats become more sophisticated, DAT remains committed to safeguarding its users through advanced technological measures. This innovative risk assessment engine is the next step in offering shippers, brokers, and carriers a secure, reliable environment to manage their freight.

“Spot market transactions rely on speed and are often conducted without brokers and carriers ever meeting,” said Satish Maripuri, DAT president and CEO. “Trust and transparency are essential to a successful relationship, especially at a time when brokers and carriers need to be vigilant about the authenticity and performance of potential partners. With more than 350 million truck and load posts on the DAT One marketplace this year, DAT is uniquely positioned to equip customers with the information they need to confidently make the right choice.”

DAT’s risk assessment engine is integrated into the DAT One platform, allowing customers to review risk assessments without leaving the load board. It also can streamline a cumbersome carrier onboarding process, which can disrupt workflows and lead to misjudgments about risk and performance.

DAT will apply its risk-assessment engine first to carrier performance, followed by a similar approach to evaluating brokers. It will be available starting in early 2024.

“DAT has the advantages of vast amounts of data, a wide range of customers to collaborate with and a proven ability to deliver AI, machine learning and data science at scale,” said Maripuri. “Other onboarding and monitoring services rely predominantly on public sources. Our risk assessment engine combines that information with DAT’s depth of proprietary data. I am especially proud of the velocity of our DAT teams, who are bringing this innovative solution to market in record time.”

The risk assessment engine is one of several initiatives introduced this year by DAT to promote transparency and reduce the risk of fraud in spot market transactions. These include:

  • Predictive fraud detection, identity verification and multi-factor authentication to detect and stop suspicious logins and activity on the DAT network.
  • An expanded Network Integrity Unit (NIU) dedicated to investigating reports of fraud.
  • Anti-fraud education and training for customers.
  • Collaboration with customers and industry partners, law enforcement agencies and regulators in the fight against fraud.
