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.

Entrust Fights Deepfakes, Phishing, and Account Takeover Attacks with AI-Powered Identity-Centric Security Solution

Building on the Onfido acquisition, Entrust can now combine AI-powered biometrics and global Identity Verification with Identity & Access Management in an integrated solution

Entrust, a global leader in trusted payments, identities, and data security, today announced a single-vendor enhanced authentication solution that integrates identity verification (IDV) and identity and access management (IAM) to fight deepfakes, phishing, account takeover (ATO) attacks and other threats.

By enhancing Entrust Identity as a Service (IDaaS) platform with Onfido’s AI-powered document and biometric verification, customers will be able to deploy next-level identity authentication before allowing a privileged action or making a high-value transaction. This equips the IDaaS platform with a new layer of hardened security that resists identity fraud and phishing, secures digital interactions, and safeguards sensitive information.

Entrust was recognized in the 2023 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Access Management. In that report, Gartner predicted "By 2027, integration with identity verification for onboarding, credentialing & recovery will be a standard feature of access management tools, potentially reducing account takeover attacks against these processes by 75%.”

"As physical and digital credentials merge, identity has become central to security. AI-driven threats, deepfakes, synthetic identities and ransomware gangs are driving a rising need for confidence in the identities of the people seeking to connect, access, and transact,” said Bhagwat Swaroop, President of Digital Security at Entrust. “That’s why identity-centric security is essential to making Zero Trust work. Entrust is the only provider that can integrate world-class IDV and IAM to enhance fraud prevention, reduce manual intervention, and improve the user experience.”

With the combined power of these solutions, organizations can:

  • Securely and efficiently authenticate users and validate their identities in real-time to protect against fraud, phishing and other account takeover attacks – last year Onfido saw a 3000% increase in deepfake attempts, speaking to the critical need for identity verification.
  • Seamlessly deploy IDV with ID and biometric checks as step-up authentication for employees or customers attempting a privileged action, such as a high value transaction, or being issued a passkey or phishing-resistant token.
  • Help prevent lateral movement in the event of a breach by incorporating AI-driven facial biometrics and the IDV process enabled by risk-based adaptive authentication to enforce a higher level of assurance.
  • Stay ahead of evolving deepfakes and cheapfakes.

The integrated solution is expected to be rolled out to customers in the coming months and will be demoed at the upcoming RSA Conference in San Francisco from 6 – 9 May 2024.

As well as demoing the newly integrated IDaaS platform at its booth (#5361N), Entrust will also run a series of demos and presentations including:

  • Fight Phishing: With credential compromise on the rise and involved in more than half of breaches, organizations need to implement an identity-centric security strategy
  • Neutralize Deepfakes: As the advancements of deepfakes create a critical challenge to businesses in their onboarding process, learn how the strategic deployment of AI techniques can detect deepfakes, ensure accuracy, and enhance client verification
  • Helping Ensure Compliance: Whether meeting regulatory standards, implementing Zero Trust, or preparing for post-quantum – make sure you’re on the right side of compliance
  • Safeguard Your Data: As we explore the benefits of AI and confront the looming threat of post-quantum, digital security strategies should center around data now more than ever

This news comes as updated data from Onfido’s 2024 Identity Fraud Report reveals that in the last six months digital forgeries accounted for 34.8% of document fraud the company caught – nearly double the 16.7% seen in 2023 (and roughly 12 times the amount of digital forgeries seen in 2021). This data and more will be released in a new special edition of the Fraud Report for RSAC.

To see these demos, get a copy of the new Identity Fraud Report, book a meeting with Entrust or learn more about Entrust’s new capabilities with Onfido, visit us at RSAC at booth #5361N in Moscone North Expo.
