Data Center Physical Security
Our data center employs a multi-layered physical security architecture designed to prevent unauthorized access at every level — from the facility perimeter to individual server cabinets. Security is never an afterthought; it is built into every aspect of our operations.
Six Layers of Physical Protection
Each layer operates independently and is designed to detect, delay, and deny unauthorized access — ensuring that no single point of failure can compromise facility security.
Biometric Access Control
Multi-factor biometric authentication at every critical access point using fingerprint scanners and hand-geometry readers. Biometric credentials are unique to each individual and cannot be shared, duplicated, or transferred — ensuring only authorized personnel can enter restricted areas.
24/7 CCTV Surveillance
Over 200 high-definition IP cameras with infrared night vision cover every entrance, corridor, data hall, loading dock, and external perimeter. All footage is recorded at 30 fps and retained for a minimum of 90 days on dedicated, tamper-evident network video recorders.
Mantrap Entry Vestibule
A dual-door security airlock (mantrap) at the main entrance prevents tailgating by ensuring only one door can open at a time after successful multi-factor credential verification. Both biometric scan and key-card authentication are required in sequence before the inner door releases.
Fire Suppression
VESDA (Very Early Smoke Detection Apparatus) provides air-sampling smoke detection that identifies threats at the earliest possible stage. FM-200 clean-agent gas suppression activates automatically, extinguishing fires without damaging electronics or leaving residue. Pre-action dry-pipe sprinklers serve as a secondary system.
Visitor Management
All visitors must present valid government-issued photo identification, be pre-approved by an authorized client contact, and sign a facility access agreement. Visitors are escorted at all times by security personnel and are logged in and out with precise timestamps at every access point.
24/7 Security Guards
Trained, licensed security officers are stationed on-site around the clock — including weekends and public holidays. Guards perform scheduled patrols, monitor live CCTV feeds, manage visitor access, and respond immediately to any security alarm or incident within the facility.
Security Infrastructure Specifications
Detailed specifications of the physical security systems deployed across our facility.
Perimeter Security
Anti-climb perimeter fencing with motion-activated lighting and intrusion detection sensors. Vehicle access is controlled through security-staffed gates with anti-ram bollards and barriers. The loading dock is physically separated from the data halls with its own access controls.
Access Logging & Audit Trail
Every access event — successful, denied, and exception — is logged with a timestamp, credential identifier, door ID, and location. Access logs are tamper-evident, centrally stored, and retained for a minimum of 12 months. Reports are available to colocation clients on request.
Cabinet-Level Security
Individual server cabinets are secured with electronic locks accessible only to the assigned colocation customer. Customers manage their own cabinet access roster through our management portal. Cabinet-level access events are logged independently of room-level access systems.
Environmental Monitoring
Leak detection sensors beneath the entire raised floor area, seismic sensors, and environmental monitoring probes at rack, row, and room level. All sensor data feeds into the Building Management System (BMS) with automated alerting and on-site staff notification.
Intrusion Detection & Alarms
Window and door contact sensors, glass-break detectors, and volumetric motion sensors cover all non-occupied areas during off-hours. The alarm system is connected to both on-site security and a monitored central station for rapid emergency response dispatch.
Compliance & Certification
Our physical security program is designed to meet ISO 27001, SOC 2 Type II, PCI DSS, and HIPAA physical safeguard requirements. Independent third-party audits are conducted annually. Audit reports and compliance documentation are available to enterprise customers under NDA.
