This data center is protected by a fortress of defense. It meets all the Department of Defense anti terrorism force protection physical requirements. That's what the QTS Richmond Data Center has. Here's what they employ to put up a fight against any attack:
500 foot setback to all buildings surrounded by an energized fence protecting the campus perimeter
K-12 delta vehicle barriers with K-12 rated fencing at all vehicle entrances
Hardened 24x7x365 visitor screening facility rated National Institute of Justice (NIJ) Ballistic Level 3
Metal detection devices and x-ray scanning instruments screen all visitors
Central command center with 24x7x365 security staff with roving armed security officers
Security monitoring with video surveillance and security cameras
Card access, biometric fingerprint and iris scan identification systems throughout the facility
You'll probably only be able to break in if you were Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible. The QTS Richmond Data Center had originally been a semiconductor fabrication facility but went through a conversion process to amp up its security. It's more of a vault than it is a data center it seems. Check out the video below: [Quality Tech]
