The perimeter

Respond to threats before they reach the building. Intelligent cameras and ground radar provide broad coverage to track people, vehicles and license plates. Intrusion detection and access control systems give additional early warning.

Data center facility security
Building and common areas

Secure buildings and common areas with credential-based entry, biometrics and visitor management. Real-time monitoring and intelligent cameras continuously track activity in shared spaces.

Data center facility security
Infrastructure areas

Ensure only trained personnel access mechanical rooms, electrical panels and network closets with electronic locks and monitoring systems and centralized access control.

Data center facility security
High-risk assets

Protect server rooms and data vaults with multi-factor authentication, cabinet-level locks and continuous surveillance. Unauthorized attempts trigger alerts, and all activity is logged for forensic review.

Data center facility security

Integration and correlation

Collecting and analyzing data from all security systems provides a clearer view of potential threats, enables faster and more appropriate response, and simplifies compliance and audits. Centralization also facilitates event log storage, supporting post-incident forensic analysis.
