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.

Riskified (NYSE: RSKD), a leader in ecommerce fraud and risk intelligence, and Appriss Retail, a top provider of return and claim authorization solutions, are excited to announce a groundbreaking partnership set to transform the retail landscape. This innovative collaboration aims to address the growing challenges of omnichannel fraud and abuse by integrating comprehensive data on consumer shopping patterns throughout the entire customer journey — both in physical stores and online. From checkout to post-fulfillment, this initiative will deliver real-time protection for retailers across all channels, ensuring a secure and seamless shopping experience for their customers.

Riskified and Appriss Retail are committed to pioneering smart solutions that address the evolving challenges of modern retail. By utilizing cutting-edge technology and data-driven insights, these industry leaders are setting a new standard in fraud prevention.

"The return and claim landscape is evolving quickly, and fraud and abuse continue to be significant challenges for merchants, hitting over $100 billion in losses for retailers, as highlighted in our annual returns report with Deloitte,” said Michael Osborne, CEO, Appriss Retail. “The challenge for merchants has been achieving a comprehensive omnichannel view, which, until this alliance with Riskified, did not exist. Together, we're equipping merchants with the tools to combat return and claim fraud across all channels while delivering the best possible experience for their consumers. By combining our individual strengths, Appriss Retail and Riskified have created an unparalleled omnichannel solution for merchants."

“As return and refund abuse continues to escalate, merchants today face the dual challenge of enhancing customer satisfaction while managing this significant risk. Our new partnership with Appriss Retail directly addresses this issue by offering, for the first time, true omnichannel fraud and policy abuse protection. This comprehensive offering seamlessly integrates online and offline channel data, streamlining workflows, reducing overhead costs, stemming losses, and providing a unique, unified view of customer interactions. We’re excited to leverage this partnership to deliver greater value and innovation to our clients,” said Eido Gal, CEO of Riskified.

Key benefits of the partnership:

  • Omnichannel protection: By integrating Riskified and Appriss Retail capabilities, merchants can confidently prevent fraudulent returns and abusive claims regardless of whether they originated from an in-store or online purchase.
  • 360-degree view: This joint solution will provide a unique, holistic understanding of a customer's identity and shopping patterns, stitching together consistent decisions across the customer journey and across all channels.
  • Better customer experience: With an omnichannel view of the customer’s true identity, retailers can deliver superior experiences and robust policies with confidence, ultimately driving higher sales and maximizing profits.

According to new research from Opinium and Cebr, commissioned by Riskified, returns, refunds, and exchanges constitute a staggering $394 billion expense for retailers in key ecommerce markets, and only three in 10 merchants have implemented a strategy to prevent fraudulent returns and refunds.
