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.

Tufin’s New TOS Discovery Automates Network Topology Mapping to Drive Faster, Smarter Security Operations

Real-Time Device Discovery Streamlines Troubleshooting, Strengthens Policy Enforcement, and Frees Teams from Manual Maintenance

Tufin, the leader in network and cloud security policy automation, today announced the launch of Tufin Orchestration Suite (TOS) Discovery, a new solution that helps security teams ensure their network topology is always accurate and up-to-date.

Maintaining up-to-date network topology is a crucial task - one that enables proper enforcement of security policies and access validation - and is critical for mitigating vulnerabilities and troubleshooting issues. Despite its importance in establishing and maintaining a safe and secure enterprise network environment, it is traditionally a manual, time-consuming task that is often deprioritized when more immediate network security needs come to the forefront.

Tufin’s TOS Discovery automates device discovery and onboarding, delivering accurate, real-time topology to fuel improved security, access, and compliance outcomes. It is the industry’s first live network topology onboarding solution that’s integrated natively into network security policy management.

“Today’s hybrid mesh network environments are evolving on a daily basis - and if your topology doesn’t reflect those changes, devices and equipment will be missed, leading to security issues and an inaccurate representation of how secure your environment really is,” said Shay Dayan, SVP of Products and Engineering at Tufin. “TOS Discovery is an example of how security automation should work; removing a time-consuming task in a way that strengthens overall security for the long term.”

TOS Discovery enables network security teams to:

  • Ensure always-accurate, real-time network topology with zero manual effort
  • Accelerate secure access provisioning, policy changes and policy enforcement across hybrid environments
  • Enhance troubleshooting agility and reduce mean time to resolution (MTTR)
  • Improve service-level agreement (SLA) compliance
  • Deliver real-time network visibility that reduces operational risk and enables smarter, faster decision-making across NetOps and SecOps teams

TOS Discovery is built into the Tufin Orchestration Suite, and automates discovery of all Cisco routers/switches on a user’s network, keeping topology always accurate and up-to-date. Device discovery is fully automated, meaning they are onboarded in real-time, eliminating manual scripts, spreadsheets, and reliance on professional services engagements. Updates are scheduled to maintain accuracy, and the solution can be deployed rapidly with minimal setup - meaning teams realize value immediately.

Most importantly, devices can be grouped by IP range, credentials, or device type - giving teams scalable, efficient topology maintenance that ensures new additions to the environment are not missed.
