Google: Only engineers are allowed to go in

Google : *has 6 layer security

Government: give me the data

This is a good example of physical security as well as authorization. I've worked in secure facilities, but never of this scale; it's truly immense.

Google Automated Gun Turret - Early Access - Coming Soon...

Do you think that Tom Cruise would make a scene which involves breaking in to Google data center? LOL

imagine breaking through all 6 layers but then realizing you don't know how to hack computers

Layer 1: Armed Guards

Building: *Caught on fire

Google: Shows off their security

NSA: "Thanks but we are gonna use the back door"

I've done work inside these types of data centers. Going through the 5-6 layers of security takes about 45 minutes. It's called "commuting in/out". I've worked on the data floor and in the destruction room. I've also worked in the modular date pods that are often out back of these facilities. It's critical infrastructure. Can't be done for less.

I thought it was 6 layer deep in "Digital Security", would love to see that.

Google: We have 6 layers of security at our data center

Security Layer Timestamp

I've gone to a Google data center in Atlanta. That one was interesting. Had similar features but one that stood out was, instead of an iris scanner they had a wrist scanner that scanned your veins since your veins are also different from one person to the other.

" less than 1% of googlers get to see this place. its very secure and private"

mmm yes 6 layers of security so only we can sell your data

In computer science saying "using locked doors in your data storage room" is a valid answer to "name x ways to keep your data secure", and I always thought this was the freest one point you could get on the paper but I see it's important
