International. Boon Edam announced that RagingWire Data Centers has installed the company's Tourlock 180+90 security revolving doors as part of its integrated access systems that protect its data centers in Ashburn, Virginia and Sacramento, California.
Founded in 2000, RagingWire was one of the first companies to help build the multibillion-dollar global data center colocation industry. Now, RagingWire is the North American data center platform within NTT Communications' portfolio that operates 140 data centers in 20 countries worldwide, making RagingWire one of the largest and most financially sound data center companies in the world.
RagingWire uses Tourlock security revolving doors in its Ashburn VA3 data center, which features 245,000 square feet of space and 16 megawatts of critical power, and its Sacramento CA3 data center, which is a 180,000-square-foot facility with 14 megawatts of critical power. VA3 and CA3 are part of RagingWire's portfolio of data centers in Ashburn, Northern California, and Dallas, Texas.
"As the colocation data center of choice for some of the most demanding cloud enterprises and enterprises, RagingWire is recognized as an industry leader in data center security and overall customer experience," said Mark Borto, CEO of Boon Edam Inc. "We are proud to provide an important part of RagingWire's sophisticated multi-layered integrated security system."
Boon Edam's security revolving doors provide efficient passage for hundreds of people daily in RagingWire's data centers. Doors avoid using a combination of sensors to recognize shapes, sizes, and volumes in three dimensions, and then stop the door when a breach occurs. The state-of-the-art system also generates an accurate picture of who is in the building at all times.
"Our customers expect our security inputs and anti-tailgating technologies (which prevent an unauthorized user from leaking closely following another authorized user) to be extremely fast and accurate," said Eddie Ankers, Director of Corporate Security at RagingWire. "By adding these doors to our defense-in-depth security strategy, we are providing the best possible protection system for our customers' mission-critical equipment."
In addition to Boon Edam's ourlock security revolving doors, RagingWire's layered security approach features highly trained 24x7 security personnel, biometric scanners, license plate readers, high-definition intelligent video cameras that analyze suspicious behavior, anti-tailgate mantraps (double door security system), a building within construction design, anti-ascent perimeter fencing, concrete bollards in front of the building entrances, and an anti-ram security door.
