OPTEX has launched a new whitepaper examining how data centre operators can strengthen physical security as facilities grow in scale, complexity and strategic importance.
‘Physical security for datacentres: A new era’ explores the risks of unauthorised access, sabotage and operational disruption and is said to set out practical guidance on strengthening perimeter protection, securing restricted areas and server rooms and improving overall resilience across the entire site.
“Security teams under pressure”
“Data centres are expected to deliver resilient, always-on operations, so physical security needs to be just as robust as the digital defences protecting the data inside,” said Mark Cosgrave, Marketing Director, OPTEX EMEA.
“With sites becoming more complex and security teams under pressure to respond quickly and accurately, advanced detection technologies can support a more layered and reliable approach to detection.”
