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.

Windows 11 Recall Feature Tested to be a Security Concern

A new update of Microsoft that takes screenshots for memory, called the recall feature, is being deemed a ‘disaster’ by IT experts. The feature is a part of Copilot Plus PCs Microsoft is going to launch on 18th June. 

The new feature utilizes the latest AI algorithm to take timely screenshots of your screen and helps retrieve old data within seconds. Users can simply search for previous tasks through a scrollable timeline. The data will not be utilized for the training of AI models and remain private on the device.

Meanwhile, cybersecurity expert Kevin Beaumont finds the feature to be flawed. He tested the model for several weeks and found that the screenshots are saved in a plain file database that can be accessed easily if a hacker uses a malware program. However, the company claims that Copilot+ is an encrypted program and cannot be extracted remotely. 

“The program takes screenshots after every few seconds that are saved into an SQLite database through Azure AI. This database file provides access to everything a user has worked on,” explained Beaumont. “Recall may help hackers access personal data within seconds, breaching privacy of global users.”

Microsoft explains that Recall has built-in privacy controls such as the ability to disable URLs and not storing data protected by digital rights and InPrivate web browsing. The feature’s FAQ page is devoid of taking about malware stealing. “The snapshots are kept on Copilot Plus PCs and are protected using data encryption,” says Microsoft.

The loop-holes in the Microsoft Recall program has left campaigners concerned of their privacy. The feature’s announcement came a few weeks after Microsoft’s CEO said that we prefer security over latest features.
