Enhancement of Security Management at the Data Centre
To enhance the physical security management of a data centre ("DC") with the aid of smart technology instead of totally relying on human escorting resource to prevent physical access control risk which may jeopardise information security, serviceability and reliability of the data centre and, with integration with the access control system and CCTV system of the DC, meet the following expected outcomes:
Infrastructure
Law and Security
To prevent plant room visitors from entering into unauthorised sub-areas. If attempt to enter an unauthorised sub-area is detected, an alert message will be sent to the monitoring system for triggering necessary alert/alarm to the operator and, by integration with other relevant systems, to assist the operator to take actions, such as bringing up the videos of the relevant surveillance cameras and the details of the visitors in the plant room. Tailgating should also be detected.
(Note: A plant room includes sub-areas A, B and C for different E&M facilities without physical separation.)
To prevent data hall visitors from entering into unauthorised cold/hot aisles. If attempt to enter an unauthorized cold/hot aisle is detected, an alert message will be sent to the monitoring system for triggering necessary alert/alarm to the operator and, by integration with other relevant systems, to assist the operator to take actions, such as bringing up the videos of the relevant surveillance cameras and the details of the visitors in the data hall. Tailgating should also be detected.
To have real time people counting solution for people working in the DC, down to aisle or room level of data halls, sub-areas or room level of plant rooms and specific rooms. It can also reconcile the people counting with the card reader access control system.
