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.

New Zero Trust Solutions from Entrust Enhance Security of Applications, Encryption Keys and Secrets

  • Launches Code Signing as a Service to establish application provenance and help secure the software supply chain.
  • Extends security policy control over virtual infrastructure resources as well as cloud operations with single solution.
  • Solves for organization-wide visibility and control over key and secrets management policies.
  • Enables developers to protect applications easily in an HSM environment with the same level of security as they do cryptographic keys and secrets.

Entrust, a global leader in identity and data security, today announced new capabilities to help organizations enhance their security posture and advance their Zero Trust maturity journey. The new features extend protections, visibility, and governance over virtual infrastructures, code and application development, and cryptographic key management.

“IT and security leaders are being challenged to secure the enterprise, anticipate, and plan for new threats, ensure compliance, and enable the organization to advance and grow. Zero Trust offers a framework for organizations to enhance their security posture, while enabling today’s hybrid, multi-cloud operations. These latest innovations from Entrust help organizations gain greater visibility and governance over how they manage encryption keys, secrets, and applications across on-premise, virtualized and multi-cloud operations,” said Bhagwat Swaroop, President, Digital Security Solutions at Entrust.

Specifically, Entrust has enhanced the ability for customers to address the following aspects of the Zero Trust framework:

  • Securing the Software Supply Chain: New cloud-based Code Signing as a Service simplifies application security for developers, while enhanced CodeSafe solution capabilities enables secure application development within the protected boundary of the Entrust nShield hardware security module (HSM).
  • Data Security with Key Management: The new Compliance Manager for KeyControl solution provides visibility of encryption keys and secrets across on-premises and multi-cloud operations – a foundation of Zero Trust architectures.
  • Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) for Virtual Environments: Entrust has extended verifiable trust policy management for virtual environments as well as multi-cloud operations through its CloudControl solution.

Entrust has created a new Zero Trust Maturity self-assessment to help organizations understand how their posture aligns with the CISA Zero Trust Maturity model. Read below for more details on how each of these innovations help organizations enhance their Zero Trust frameworks.

Automated Code Signing as a Service

The new Entrust Code Signing as a Service (CSaaS) is a fully hosted cloud-based solution to obtain and manage code signing certificates that ensure software authenticity and integrity. Authenticated code signing combined with a software bill of materials (SBOM) gives organizations visibility into their software supply chain. The CSaaS solution provides organizations with a centralized location to safeguard code signing certificates and keys without the need to manage secure hardware and can be connected to existing automated code signing applications and workflows.

Secure Application Development within an HSM

The Entrust nShield CodeSafe solution lets developers write and execute sensitive applications securely inside the boundary of an nShield HSM. New capabilities provide a standardized container development environment and enable adoption of common engineering processes across all application deployment environments. Entrust also has released an SDK to enable customers to test the NIST Post Quantum Cryptography (PQC) draft algorithms in the secure CodeSafe solution environment.

Gain control and visibility into encryption key and secrets management, across clouds and on-premise

With the new Compliance Manager for KeyControl solution, organizations can establish an encryption key inventory and have full visibility into related key information across on-premises and cloud environments. This patent pending solution provides a unified dashboard to view and monitor compliance of an organization’s cryptographic assets centrally, whether located across one or many vaults or configured locally or geographically distributed.

CSPM for Virtual Environments

The Entrust CloudControl cloud security posture management solution now extends to virtual infrastructures, ensuring that requests to access virtual resources across data centers and private clouds must be authenticated and authorized before access can be granted. Workloads are secured and only run under multi-layered security and authorization controls, including secondary approvals, risk-based access control (RBAC), and multifactor authentication (MFA). The CloudControl solution also facilitates data sovereignty compliance by disabling virtual machines if they are moved out of defined areas.
