Rack Armor: Secure, Notify and Report
Rack Armor is more than just a lock for your server racks. This high-tech tool combines technologies like video surveillance equipment and card readers to create a comprehensive security solution that will keep your physical data centers safe from a variety of threats. Features include:
Dynamic Mapping

Ideal for large organizations with multiple data centers scattered across different locations, Rack Armor data center security’s dynamic mapping feature makes it easy to see which center your alert is coming from.
Rack and Door Actions

Rack Armor’s helpful rack action screen allows you to quickly verify the status of your server racks, including both the front and back doors. This single screen serves as a one-stop shop for checking the status of your racks, including a link to live video feeds.
Alarm Acknowledgement

Rack Armor data center security allows for a number of different alarm notifications to be delivered. Aside from being notified when a server rack is opened, Rack Armor can tell you how it was opened, by whom and show live video of the rack.
Multi-party Control

For organizations seeking the maximum amount of security, multi-party control is an excellent security feature. Also known as a “two-man rule”, multi-party control requires that two cards be swiped within a ten-second time frame in order for access to be granted.
Video Integration

Rack Armor data center security can be integrated to work with an existing video surveillance system, providing an additional layer of security for your server racks. Video can be called up when a rack is opened, or can be used for review in case of tampering or other issues.
Reports Generator

Part of monitoring your server racks is creating records of employees who access them. Rack Armor makes this easy with a robust report generator that will provide you with a detailed report covering who accessed your racks, when and what actions were performed.
