Belgium Data Center Physical Security Market Size (2024 - 2029)

Belgium Data Center Physical Security Market Analysis

The Belgium Data Center Physical Security Market size is estimated at USD 21.14 million in 2024, and is expected to reach USD 41.42 million by 2029, growing at a CAGR of 14.40% during the forecast period (2024-2029).

The security measures can be categorized into four layers: perimeter security, facility controls, computer room controls, and cabinet controls. The first layer of data center security is to discourage, detect, and delay any unauthorized entry of personnel at the perimeter. In case of any breach in the perimeter monitoring, the second layer of defense restricts access. It is an access control system using card swipes or biometrics.

The third layer of physical security further restricts access through diverse verification methods including: monitoring all restricted areas, deploying entry restrictions such as turnstile, providing VCA, providing biometric access control devices to verify finger and thumb prints, irises, or vascular pattern, and using radio frequency identification. The first three layers ensure entry of only authorized personnel. However, further security to restrict access includes cabinet locking mechanisms. This layer addresses the fear of an 'insider threat', such as a malicious employee.
