    That’s… Not quite true. Usually they take access quite seriously. If in a multi tenant space every space will be separated and the physical cages around the machines locked and monitored.

    All the same they are designed to keep small numbers of mostly law abiding people out, not an angry mob with torches.

      Agree. I live in Winnipeg, Canada, and I have visited local datacentres - anything built in the last twenty years would be very hard to physically penetrate with stealth alone.

      There are older ones which might be a bit less sophisticated, but that’s not the norm.
