With recent stories like AWS dropping the social media platform Parler for violating its terms of service, data centers are now a target from potential bad actors.
Basic, low-level protection is not sufficient to protect modern data center centers. According to Anixter, the average cost of a breach is $5.5 million with 39% of breaches caused by negligence and 37% caused by malicious attacks. Data center security managers must follow best practices and enforce the 5 Ds of perimeter security (deter, detect, deny, delay, and defend) to ensure the physical security of their data center sites or risk costly physical intrusions.
Safeguard your facility and data with these best practices to improve...

Today’s organizations face an unending stream of requests for IT resource capacity to store and process the data and applications necessary to support innovative technologies like the Internet of Things (IoT), big data, artificial intelligence (AI), and machine learning. This has a massive impact on modern data center environments and drives their ever-increasing complexity and density.
Although technological advancements in intelligent rack PDUs and compute devices often provide greater efficiency, the energy cost to power a single server rack in a data center in the US can be as high as almost $30,000 a year depending on its configuration. In a data center with 100 cabinets, the cost to po...

Colocation data center use is on the rise. In fact, according to 451 Research, nearly half of all enterprises plan on increasing their use of colocation services over the next two years.
In our recent webinar Best Practices for Remotely Managing Your Colo Infrastructure, Tom Wysocki, Data Center Manager, KPMG shared that they use colocation data centers to increase floor space at a much lower cost, provide greater scalability of power, increase the tier rating of their data center, and reduce the effort and time of having to manage and maintain mechanical equipment and use that time to focus on the actual data center infrastructure.
“One big factor,” Wysocki explained, “is getting colocation...
