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.

CyberArk Helps Modernize Identity and Access Management for Linux Machines With New Identity Bridge Capability

CyberArk (NASDAQ: CYBR), the global leader in identity security, today announced Identity Bridge, an endpoint identity security capability that will support identity and privilege sprawl reduction on Linux machines. Identity Bridge will enable organizations to authenticate to Linux systems using centralized accounts, minimizing dependence on outdated authentication methods. This helps modernize Identity and Access Management (IAM) without leaving Linux environments behind.

Like all critical IT infrastructure, Linux systems are prime targets for cyberattacks, particularly via identity compromise. Managing identity and access on Linux systems requires either configuring access to each system individually or using a third-party solution to bridge Linux systems to Active Directory (AD) for centralized authentication. As organizations transition to cloud-native architectures, they look to evolve IAM programs to support modern, cloud-based directories and modern authentication methods. However, traditional AD bridging tools often fail to offer this flexibility. In addition, these tools often don’t feature strong phishing-resistant multi-factor authentication (MFA), including passwordless capability.

Identity Bridge from CyberArk will address this gap by offering a centralized and user-friendly approach to managing user access and authentication for Linux environments – reducing management overhead, improving visibility, and enhancing security.

Benefits of Identity Bridge:

  • Accelerates IAM Modernization: With Identity Bridge, businesses can accelerate their IAM modernization programs, seamlessly integrating their Linux systems with both Active Directory (AD) and modern cloud Identity Providers (IdPs).
  • Simple and Efficient: Identity Bridge streamlines identity and access management (IAM) and endpoint privilege management (EPM), helping organizations implement centralized access and least privilege policies, securing access for IT administrators and developers with minimal complexity.
  • Integrated: Identity Bridge works seamlessly with CyberArk Secure Infrastructure Access to bolster defense-in-depth, improving business resilience and strengthening critical assets against the most comprehensive cyberthreats, including ransomware.

“Being able to manage user authentication and authorization across the entire IT infrastructure from a single, centralized location is a must to avoid identities and permissions sprawl, privilege escalation challenges, and excessive management overhead,” said Peretz Regev, Chief Product Officer, CyberArk. “Identity Bridge is a directory-agnostic, flexible approach to Linux IAM centralization and modernization that will mean organizations can reduce access-related cyber risk across their Linux estates with modern authentication and maximal visibility.”

Identity Bridge seamlessly integrates with CyberArk’s industry-leading privileged access management and identity tools, enabling continuous authentication and Just-In-Time access. Identity Bridge augments CyberArk’s existing Linux offerings. Customers will be able to use centralized accounts for authentication and targeted least privilege policies via a single agent and a single management console.
