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.

1Kosmos BlockID Adds Passwordless Authentication to Amazon Cognito

Integrated solution makes identity-based MFA available to Amazon customers from AWS Marketplace

1Kosmos, the company that unifies identity proofing and passwordless authentication, today announced it has completed the integration of its 1Kosmos BlockID platform with Amazon Cognito. As an AWS Advanced Technology Partner, 1Kosmos enables Amazon customers to seamlessly add passwordless multi-factor authentication (MFA) to their customer-facing web and mobile application journeys.

Customers can deploy and directly procure BlockID from the AWS Marketplace to implement phishing resistant passwordless MFA on AWS Cognito that delivers a frictionless user experience through non-spoofable, live biometrics with verified identity. The BlockID cloud service is designed to prevent identity impersonation, account takeover and fraud while delivering a convenient, frictionless login experience.

“Unlike traditional passwordless and MFA platforms, 1Kosmos BlockID uses identity-based verification to transparently authenticate users and prevent account compromise and fraud,” said Huzefa Olia, Co-Founder and COO for 1Kosmos. “This integration with Amazon Cognito makes it fast and easy for Amazon customers to add a flexible array of MFA options to end user journeys based on their unique identity assurance and security requirements.”

BlockID MFA supports biometric authentication including TouchID (fingerprint) and FaceID with liveness detection, as well as one-time passwords (OTP) via SMS and email, time-based one-time password (TOTP) from a linked mobile authenticator, and push notifications. This enables Amazon customers to choose the MFA methods best suited to the needs of their application ecosystem.

It is delivered as a stand alone or embedded cloud service or via a managed service as a Credential Service Provider for residents.
