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.

DigiCert Publishes PQC For Dummies, DigiCert Special Edition

Lehi, Utah, Jan. 22, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DigiCert, a leading global provider of digital trust, today announced the release of PQC for Dummies, DigiCert Special Edition, published by Wiley. This book serves as a primer on the imminent challenges posed by quantum computing and equips organizations with the knowledge and strategies needed to adopt post-quantum cryptography (PQC) to secure their digital infrastructure. 

PQC for Dummies, DigiCert Special Edition dives into the critical need to prepare for a post-quantum world, where quantum computing could render current cryptographic algorithms obsolete. Readers will learn about the importance of layering quantum-safe encryption alongside existing security controls, adopting contingency plans, and building organizational adaptability. Real-world insights provide practical steps for organizations to stay ahead of quantum threats and ensure resilience in their security posture. 

“Quantum computing is no longer a distant possibility; it’s a rapidly approaching reality,” said Amit Sinha, CEO of DigiCert. “Organizations must start preparing today by adopting post-quantum cryptographic solutions to protect their sensitive data and digital ecosystems. PQC for Dummies, DigiCert Special Edition provides an accessible and actionable guide for this critical journey.” 

The increasing pace of quantum computing innovation has made the transition to quantum-safe cryptographic methods a pressing priority. DigiCert is a leader in the advancement of PKI standards in CAB Forum, IETF, ETSI, and elsewhere, uniquely positioning it to provide expert guidance to organizations about quantum-related challenges ahead. 

PQC for Dummies, DigiCert Special Edition explores: 

    • The impending risks posed by quantum computing to current cryptographic systems. 
    • The steps to begin layering quantum-safe encryption alongside existing security measures.
    • Strategies for contingency planning and building adaptability within an organization.
    • The importance of prioritizing PQC as part of a forward-looking cybersecurity strategy.
    • Real-world examples illustrating how organizations are preparing for quantum computing.
     

Post-quantum cryptography is designed to withstand the computational power of quantum computers, which can break many of today’s encryption standards. DigiCert is at the forefront of helping organizations adopt PQC by providing tools for certificate discovery, management, and automation to ease the transition to quantum-resistant algorithms. 

“By preparing now, organizations can ensure a smooth and effective transition to quantum-safe systems, safeguarding their digital assets against future threats,” added Sinha. “This book serves as an essential resource for understanding and implementing PQC strategies that can protect data well into the future.”
