Manchester Data Centre operator TeleData has invested £125,000 into an advanced security system at its Wythenshaw facility.
Founded in 2007, TeleData UK provides colocation, cloud hosting, workplace recovery and data centre services.
The investment will see the operator install thermal imaging detection, number plate recognition and a site-wide audio challenge facility.
TeleData said systems will be permanently monitored.
Matthew Edgley, commercial director for TeleData, said: “The enhanced technology allows our security operatives to effectively monitor our facility at night time when visibility is poor.
“Security is about keeping assets, property and people safe.”
He continued: “For this to be effective there has to be a focus on proactivity; a method of intervention that stops any potential incidents of threat, crime, damage or vandalism before they develop into a negative or catastrophic event.
“Effective prevention systems that utilise the latest in technological security advancements, ensure round the clock protection of our Manchester data centres.”
