About the customer
Customer challenges
Our client is a forward-thinking digital infrastructure organisation headquartered in Dublin, operating across the UK, Ireland, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia.
Their team of experts in intelligent design, engineering, research, and sustainability develops and operates environmentally responsible data centres, with over 200MW of IT capacity live or under development.
Guided by the principle of “data centres for good”, the organisation is committed to creating local employment, supporting communities, and investing in environmental restoration.
The client required a comprehensive security solution for a new data centre build - one that could scale with growth and integrate technology for smarter oversight.
Key challenges included:
- Greenfield new build security: Recruiting and training a dedicated on-site team from the ground up.
- Real-time information and reporting: Traditional reporting lacked agility for a dynamic data centre environment.
- Service delivery intelligence: The need for data-led insights to anticipate risks and enhance performance.
- Ad-hoc resource management: Flexible deployment of additional security resources as required.
Our solutions
The integrated solution delivered centralised command and control of all security functions.
Securitas Ireland designed and deployed a multi-layered, tech-driven security strategy to meet the client’s unique operational needs:
- Specialist data centre guarding: Recruitment and training of a dedicated, highly skilled on-site security team.
- Mobile patrol & alarm response: Rapid-response units ensuring continuous protection and incident readiness.
- Securitas guarding platform and MySecuritas: Implementation of an intelligent platform enabling real-time monitoring, data analytics, and performance tracking across all security activities.
Key benefits achieved:
- Central control of security functions: The client gained centralised control over all security functions, streamlining operations and ensuring a cohesive approach to safeguarding their digital infrastructure.
- Real-time security and performance Intelligence: With the Securitas Guarding Platform and MySecuritas, the organisation achieved real-time insights into security activities, allowing for immediate responses to potential threats and the ability to track performance metrics over time.
- Enhanced control for employees and visitors: The implementation of the security solution provided an additional layer of control for employees and visitors, creating a secure environment conducive to innovation and collaboration.
