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.

Oregon Department of Transportation Confirms Data Breach Leaking the Personal Information of 3.5 Million Oregon Residents

By: PRLog

An estimated 3.5 million Oregon residents are being notified that their personal information was compromised when hackers were able to exploit a vulnerability in a secure file-transfer tool used by the Oregon Department of Transportation.

MARLTON, N.J. - June 23, 2023 - PRLog -- The sensitive personal data of approximately 3.5 million people has been compromised as a result of a zero-day vulnerability in a software tool created by Progress Software, LLC. Now, residents' full names, addresses and other personal information may be in the hands of criminals who can use the stolen information to commit identity theft and other frauds.

The data breach attorneys at Console & Associates, P.C. are actively investigating claims on behalf of Oregon residents, hoping to inform them of the risks they face as a result of the breach and what their legal rights are in its aftermath.

On June 15, 2023, ODOT posted a public notice on its website describing a third-party data breach affecting those who have either an Oregon driver's license or identification card. ODOT explained that the incident resulted from a vulnerability in managed file transfer software created by Progress Software, called MOVEit. Evidently, Progress Software notified ODOT of the vulnerability and potential breach on June 1, 2023. In turn, ODOT conducted an investigation confirming that the hackers responsible for the breach were able to access ODOT data.

According to ODOT's notice, the data breach affected an estimated 3,500,000 Oregonians.

The list of sensitive information that was exposed includes:

Names,
Home addresses,
Mailing addresses,
Driver's license numbers,
State identification card numbers, and
The last four digits of Social Security numbers.

If you receive a data breach notice from ODOT, you could now be at risk of identity theft—and the life-changing financial and legal consequences that follow in its wake. This is especially the case because, at this time, ODOT is not providing complimentary credit monitoring or identity theft protection.

What to Do if You Receive an ODOT Data Breach Letter

Individuals who receive a data breach letter from the Oregon Department of Transportation should take all necessary steps to protect themselves. (See our Guide for Victims of Data Breach for more details at https://www.myinjuryattorney.com/consumer-privacy-data-breach-lawyers/if-your-information-has-been-compromised-in-a-data-breach/.) Additionally, data breach victims should consider speaking with a data breach lawyer immediately. Those individuals in receipt of an ODOT data breach letter may be entitled to financial compensation.

If you wish to discuss this data security incident, or if you have any questions regarding your rights following the ODOT data breach, please contact Console & Associates, P.C. at (866) 778-5500. Interested parties and potential plaintiffs can also learn more about this data breach and potential lawsuit at https://www.myinjuryattorney.com/oregon-department-of-transportation-data-breach-investigation/.
