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.

Concealed Facebook Security Breach with Implications for Minors Uncovered By Planet Zuda Security

Undisclosed Facebook Data Breach Exposed By Planet Zuda Cybersecurity

CAMARILLO, Calif. - Nov. 9, 2023 - PRLog -- Cybersecurity Firm Uncovers Concealed Facebook Security Breach

Cybersecurity firm Planet Zuda has uncovered a concealed security breach within Facebook's systems, leading to a pivotal policy change allowing individuals with banned accounts to access some personal data. This development stemmed from Planet Zuda's discovery that hackers had gained control of Facebook's moderation system to ban accounts. Initially focused on a single client's account, the effort expanded to reinstate all accounts affected by the undisclosed hack discovered in August 2023.

Planet Zuda's investigation revealed that account bans were executed through a breach in Facebook's moderation systems by hackers, not by Facebook's internal team. These unauthorized entities stealthily imposed bans, operating in coordinated pairs.

Facebook confirmed the breach following Planet Zuda's bug bounty program filing. Planet Zuda then escalated efforts, engaging with legal authorities, government agencies, and media. A Reddit thread was instrumental in tracking compromised accounts.

On October 25th, a mass restoration of banned accounts began, secured pending ownership verification. This marked a significant step in addressing the breach's consequences.

Concerns for Families and Minors

The breach raises alarming concerns for families. Hackers with moderator-like powers could have compromised minors' accounts, potentially exposing or selling their private communications. This risk is underscored by Meta employees' testimonies about challenges in protecting teen users. Parents should note the vulnerability of children under 13 using Facebook during the breach.

Despite these advancements, Planet Zuda notes the absence of a mandatory breach filing with California's Attorney General Data Security Breach system and urges Facebook to inform the affected users.

As this cybersecurity advocacy chapter concludes, the incident highlights digital vulnerabilities and the need for robust online protections, especially for younger users. While Planet Zuda has brought these issues to light, Facebook bears the responsibility for resolution and ongoing security measures.
