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.

Millions lost as exploits hit major platforms Mango, Lamden, Binance and others

By: Get News
Millions of dollars worth of crypto were lost over the month of October as exploits impacted large platforms like Mango, Lamden, and Binance. More than $3 billion in crypto has been lost in 2022 so far according to a report from Fortune.com, and almost a billion of that was in October alone.

Earlier in the month exploiters attacked the Solana-based decentralized finance platform, Mango, extracting nearly $114 in funds. The exploiters were able to manipulate the platform’s native token MNGO via loopholes in the smart contract protocol. One of the exploiters later returned $67 million of the funds.  

On October 18, Moola, a decentralized finance platform on the Celo blockchain, reported a breach of $9 million. The hacker manipulated the price of the platform’s MOO token to then borrow a large amount of tokens using the MOO as collateral which enabled them to drain the protocol of funds. The hacker negotiated a bounty and returned nearly 90% of the funds.  

The Binance Smart Chain was hit by an even larger exploit on October 7. Nearly $570 million was stolen when a hacker minted an additional two million BNB tokens, the native token for Binance.  

In late September, the Python-based blockchain platform Lamden was impacted by a hacker who created a contract that was able to modify the blockchain state and mint tokens to the value of nearly $250,000. The hack was quickly identified and the bridge used to move tokens from Lamden to BSC was frozen. This allowed the team to recover a portion of the stolen funds.  

According to a report by Token Terminal, “Bridge exploits account for around 50 percent of all DeFi exploits, totaling ~$2.5 billion in lost assets.” This reinforces the need for better testing, bounty programs, and auditing processes. 

White Hat Hackers   

Many of the hacks have been performed by bad actors but there are some white hat hackers, ethical hackers who search for exploits to collect bounties, who’ve exploited the vulnerabilities but immediately returned the funds.  

As an example, the Olympus DAO smart contract was exploited for nearly $300,000 but returned within hours.
