However, you must consider the physical security of your data centre just as much as its online security. In this blog post, we explore the importance of data centre perimeter security.<\/p>\n<h2>Why is physical data centre security important?<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zaun.co.uk\/blog\/data-centre-security-case-knowing-onions-2\/\" title=\"Data centre security is a case of knowing your onions\">Data centre security<\/a> is important for several reasons. Firstly, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zaun.co.uk\/blog\/data-centre-security-case-knowing-onions\/\" title=\"Data centre security is a case of knowing your onions\">data centre security<\/a> is important to ensure hackers or individuals with malicious intent cannot easily enter your premises and access your servers. Such individuals may plan on vandalising your servers or compromising their quality, leaving you and your clients open to serious <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zaun.co.uk\/blog\/major-threat-protection\/\" title=\"Securing major organisations against major threats\">security threats<\/a>. If such a breach were to happen to your company, not only would you have to replace and repair your servers, which would be incredibly expensive, but you would also lose the trust of your clients.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly, installing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zaun.co.uk\/products\/perimeter-fencing\/\">perimeter security<\/a> measures is important for a data centre to ensure your employees feel safe and comfortable whilst at work.
