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.

Keysight and Synopsys Partner for IoT Device Cybersecurity

  • Synopsys Defensics® fuzz testing software embedded into Keysight’s IoT Security Assessment solution
  • Turnkey automated internet of things testing and validation platform reduces costs while speeding time-to-market
  • Solution enables device makers to comply with new White House cybersecurity standards

Keysight Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: KEYS) and Synopsys, Inc. are partnering to provide internet of things (IoT) device makers with a comprehensive cybersecurity assessment solution to ensure consumers are protected when devices are shipped to market. Under the arrangement, the Synopsys Defensics® fuzzing tool will be embedded as an option into the Keysight IoT Security Assessment solution.

The global IoT device market is experiencing notable growth due to the rise in adoption of IoT devices and is projected to reach a market value of $413.7 billion by 2031. According to Palo Alto Networks IoT Threat Report, the vulnerability of IoT devices makes them easy targets with 57% of IoT devices at risk of medium or high-severity attacks. With the proliferation of devices and of IoT cyberattacks, device makers are increasingly in need of assessment tools to identify and remediate device security vulnerabilities. One component of an effective, comprehensive security assessment is fuzzing, an automated software testing method that injects invalid, malformed, or unexpected inputs into a device to reveal defects and vulnerabilities.

With the addition of Defensics to the Keysight IoT Security Assessment, users now have a complete, comprehensive solution that combines known vulnerability assessments with a versatile fuzzer that can analyze over 300 different technology protocols used across diverse industries to quickly test for unknown vulnerabilities and weaknesses. In addition to reporting security flaws uncovered through fuzzing, the solution detects potential exploits resulting from weak authentication and encryption, expired certificates, Android vulnerabilities and Android Debug Bridge (ADB) exposures, known Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs), and embedded flaws in protocol stacks, such as Bluetooth Low Energy attacks like Sweyntooth and Braktooth.

In addition, the Keysight IoT Security Assessment solution makes it easy and cost-effective for manufacturers to test IoT devices now and achieve the new White House Cyber Trust Mark certification when it is released. This turnkey cybersecurity certification platform enables automated validation through a point-and-click interface, allowing device makers to quickly bring new IoT products to market without hiring a large team of cybersecurity experts.

Scott Johnson, Vice President of Product Management, Synopsys Software Integrity Group, said: “With billions of IoT devices in use and more on the way, security testing is more critical than ever to address new threats and evolving regulations. Our collaboration with Keysight will provide a comprehensive solution for customers that combines hardware and Defensics fuzz testing software to conduct automated IoT security testing.”

Ram Periakaruppan, Vice President and General Manager, Network Test & Security Solutions, Keysight, said: “Securing IoT devices against attacks has become exponentially more difficult for manufacturers with the demand for new devices and increased functionality. By partnering with Synopsys to add their best-of-breed fuzzing tool, Keysight can provide device makers with a comprehensive security testing solution to identify previously unknown protocol stack vulnerabilities in their devices while assessing them for known threats, all from a single, easy-to-use interface.”
