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.

ID R&D Introduces Voice Clone Detection for Protection Against Gen AI-based Identity Fraud

Voice cloning enables many beneficial applications, but can also help bad actors commit crimes and erode public trust by impersonating people without their consent

ID R&D, a Mitek company, and an award-winning provider of voice biometrics and liveness technology, today introduced voice clone detection as a new option for its IDLive® Voice liveness detection product. Detecting voice clones and audio deepfakes can prevent fraud and crime, deter bad actors, and help preserve trust in the authenticity of digital audio communication.

The software processes a recording of speech and uses AI to determine whether it was spoken by a person or a voice clone. The covert use of a voice clone is a strong indicator of criminal intent.

Generative AI has substantially accelerated the advancement of audio deepfakes and voice clones. Today’s voice clones, created using just a short audio sample of a person’s voice, are virtually impossible for people to differentiate from their source. It is a powerful technology with many compelling applications in communications, healthcare, and productivity, particularly when combined with text-to-speech and conversational AI. But it can also be used to commit fraud and other crimes by impersonating people without their consent. These include account takeover, identity theft, misinformation, extortion, defamation, and appropriation of identity.

President Biden has issued an Executive Order that established standards in AI security and safety in an effort to protect Americans privacy while seizing the promise of AI. Bruce Reed, White House deputy chief of staff spearheading the AI strategy of the Biden administration, recently said that what worries him most about AI is voice cloning.

“Just as deepfakes have made it harder to distinguish between fact and fiction in the digital world, voice clones make it hard to believe what we hear said by people we think we know and recognize,” commented Alexey Khitrov, ID R&D CEO and Co-Founder and Mitek GM. “In a world where deepfake impersonations are proliferating so rapidly, voice clone detection plays an essential role in preserving trust between people and technology, securing the voice interface from fraud.”

About IDLive Voice Clone Detection

ID R&D’s IDLive Voice clone detection product is delivered as an SDK and operates on the customer premise either as a standalone function or in concert with ID R&D’s other voice biometrics and liveness products. Just three seconds of a person speaking can be submitted to the API to get a score indicating the likelihood that it was created using cloning technology from among the leading providers. It can detect clone attacks using replays or more advanced software- and hardware-based hacking methods. The detection operates on audio played into a mobile device or any other device with a microphone.
