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.

Carat from Fiserv Introduces Fraud Mitigation Solution to Simplify How Large Businesses Manage Risk

Modular solution provides access to fraud and risk controls, transaction scoring, and chargeback management via a single integration

Fraud Mitigation leverages enterprise-wide data from Fiserv to strengthen decisioning

Fiserv, Inc. (NASDAQ: FISV), a leading global provider of payments and financial services technology solutions, today introduced a new fraud mitigation solution designed to simplify how large enterprises manage omnichannel risk. Accessible through the Carat global commerce platform, the modular solution empowers merchants with controls that can be customized based on a firm’s risk appetite, along with simplified access to transaction scoring, chargeback management and other capabilities.

Fiserv is debuting Fraud Mitigation this week at the Merchant Risk Council (MRC) in Las Vegas, March 6-9 (Booth #631).

While online fraud continues to proliferate, as evidenced by an estimated $41 billion lost to ecommerce fraud in 2022, it may be surprising that only 27% of merchants say reducing fraud losses is guiding their fraud mitigation philosophy. Instead, merchants indicate they are focused on maximizing sales, minimizing user friction, reducing false declines, or balancing sales with fraud losses.

“As omnichannel fraud becomes more sophisticated, businesses are trying to strike a balance between reducing risk and driving revenue – whether that is by maximizing authorizations, limiting false declines, or preserving consumer trust,” said Jason Paguandas, Vice President and GM of Merchant Fraud at Fiserv. “By providing businesses with a highly configurable and scalable solution, merchants can align fraud controls to their business strategy and easily augment their tech stack without integrating to additional vendors.”

The modular solution simplifies how businesses manage risk via:

  • A flexible, rules-based fraud prevention engine, which provides control over risk thresholds.
  • Monitoring and scoring capabilities, which help stop suspicious transactions by leveraging machine learning, behavioral analytics, and industry-leading link analysis.
  • Trusted chargeback protections, which safeguard against consumer chargeback abuse.

Data Advantages in Fraud Prevention

The rules-based engine powering Fraud Mitigation is augmented by acquiring, card, network, and issuer data from Fiserv – providing a horizontal viewpoint across payment activity. These highly differentiated data sets are ingested by machine learning tools to improve decisions and provide optimal outcomes, such as improved authorization rates and a reduction in false declines, for ecommerce transactions.

“Card not present transactions have historically been challenging from a fraud mitigation perspective, as very limited data passes through the authorization stream from the merchant to the issuer,” said Julie Conroy, Head of Risk Insights and Advisory at Aite Novarica. “Augmenting decisioning with a wide variety of data sources can significantly strengthen the customer risk profile, especially when a business is able to connect merchant and issuer data.”

Fraud Mitigation is part of Carat, the global commerce platform from Fiserv that orchestrates payments and experiences for the world’s largest businesses. With Carat, leading brands can unify their commerce, optimize transactions, and imagine and realize new ways to engage with customers.
