International. Security services specialist Securitas recently launched its Global Customer Data Center Group, which is part of the company's Global Customer Program, which supports its customers with solutions and technology combined with international security expertise.
Currently, Securitas' Data Center Group secures 570 data centers in 36 countries.
"There's no business as usual inside a data center," says Milton Plet, senior vice president. "Data centers are highly secure environments with stringent operational and governance requirements. That is why it is essential to have specialized professionals who understand the peculiarities of the environment that protects and protects these facilities. Securitas excels in both technology and security, allowing us to offer a comprehensive solution for data centers."
Through this group, Securitas offers personalized support to help its data center customers. This includes:
* Global account leadership, governance and single point of accountability
* Advanced technology solutions and tools to help detect, prevent and predict threats
* Data center security expertise with a team of dedicated security professionals who can effectively support and complement our client's security operational requirements
Minimize the risk of human error
Much of data center security programming focuses on controlling physical access and mitigating opportunities for data theft. Working together with its customers, the company helps adopt a security posture based on least-privilege access principles.
"Allowing access to a data center solely to clean a camera lens or upgrade a fire extinguisher can be unwise," Milton concludes. "Our security specialists not only minimize the likelihood of errors for data center operators, but also save our customers money and help give them peace of mind."
In addition to human error, data centers face the potential risk of natural disasters such as earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, and wildfires, which can lead to power outages, equipment damage, and other disruptions. Cybersecurity threats are also a major concern, as hackers may attempt to steal or destroy sensitive data, install malware or ransomware, or take control of data center systems. In addition, power failures or other problems with the power grid can lead to downtime or data loss.
With nearly 90 years of experience in making the world a safer place, Securitas sees what others overlook. By combining expertise, technology and global reach, we can deliver unparalleled protection for data centers, no matter where they are.
