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.

LastPass Launches Passkey Support for Seamless, Secure Access Across Devices

LastPass, a leader in password and identity management trusted by over 100,000 businesses worldwide, today announced the general availability of passkey support, giving users and businesses a simpler, more secure way to log in across a variety of devices, browsers, and operating systems. Starting now, passkeys can be created, stored, and managed directly in the LastPass vault, alongside passwords, making secure access easier than ever.

This release marks a major step in LastPass’s Secure Access Experiences strategy, designed to help users and businesses move beyond password fatigue, phishing risks, and ecosystem lock-in.

“Passkeys are changing how people log in, using a much more secure method,” said Don MacLennan, Chief Product Officer at LastPass. “We’ve built support to store passkeys across platforms and without friction. It’s a smarter, simpler way to stay secure.”

Why Passkeys, Why Now?

The shift to passkeys is well underway. Major platforms support them, and IT leaders are eager to adopt them: 92% say passkeys will improve their security posture. LastPass helps achieve this with:

  • One vault for all credentials: Passwords and passkeys managed together
  • Cross-platform access: Passkeys sync across devices, browsers, and operating systems
  • Stronger security: Passwords and passkeys stay encrypted in the vault, not on third-party servers

Built for Scale, Designed for Simplicity

Passkeys are cryptographic key pairs that replace passwords. They’re designed to be immune to phishing, can’t be reused, and only the public key is stored with the website or app, while the private key stays encrypted within the user’s LastPass vault. This helps make users’ logins resistant to server-side breaches and credential theft.

Users can manage passkeys just like their passwords, using the LastPass browser extension or mobile app. IT teams can benefit from easier user adoption, reduced helpdesk workload, and faster, better security hygiene across the organization.

Continuing the LastPass Commitment to Secure Access

LastPass was the first password manager to achieve FIDO2 certification for its server infrastructure. Passkey support builds on that foundation, joining other recent LastPass innovations like SaaS Monitoring and SaaS Protect to help consumers and businesses secure every login, everywhere.
