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.

Coalition Publishes Risky Tech Ranking to Help Businesses Make Better-Informed Technology Decisions

By: via Business Wire

Cyber Insurer’s Inaugural List Based on Technology Providers Whose Products Were Vulnerable to Exploitation by Threat Actors

Coalition, the world's first Active Insurance provider1 designed to prevent digital risk before it strikes, today released the Risky Tech Ranking to increase public awareness of the technology providers whose products were vulnerable to exploitation by threat actors.

Designed to help businesses make better-informed decisions about the technologies they adopt, the Risky Tech Ranking was created by applying publicly available data to a proprietary methodology formulated by Coalition. Updated quarterly, the Ranking scores vendors by multiplying the number of vulnerabilities impacting a vendor’s products by the average Coalition Exploit Scoring System (Coalition ESS) score.

The top 10 riskiest vendors for Q1 2025, according to Coalition’s ranking scores, are:

  1. Microsoft (98.3)
  2. Google (32.2)
  3. Apple (30.9)
  4. Linux (30.3)
  5. Adobe (25.5)
  6. Cisco (24.7)
  7. Oracle (23.6)
  8. Apache (21.5)
  9. D-Link (20.6)
  10. Ivanti (20.2)

“The severity of today’s cyber landscape warrants greater visibility across technology providers selling to businesses globally,” said Tiago Henriques, Chief Underwriting Officer at Coalition. “The Risky Tech Ranking is meant to serve as an educational tool for businesses and an impetus for technology providers to make popular technologies more secure. We hope this not only provides businesses worldwide with greater peace of mind when making enterprise purchasing decisions, but also contributes to a safer digital environment for everyone.”

With Coalition’s Risky Tech Ranking, the company also released the second iteration of its patented vulnerability scoring system, Coalition ESS, to help risk managers mitigate potential cyber threats. Coalition ESS is a security risk prioritization scoring system that leverages real-time monitoring and dynamic scoring to enable businesses of all sizes to efficiently understand which vulnerabilities to patch first.

“One cannot mention the severity of cyber threats without discussing the frequency: we are seeing more vulnerabilities and exploitations materialize than ever before,” continued Henriques. “Between issuing a modernized Scoring System and releasing a risk ranking of vendors that is data-driven, it is our aim to equip businesses with everything they need to select a secure technology stack that won’t expose them to undue risk."
