Originally a high-security military bunker carved deep into the Swiss Alps, Swiss Fort Knox I is engineered to survive the most extreme scenarios. The facility is encased in solid rock, providing a natural shield against external threats. To bolster this geological defense, the data center features full EMP protection, bulletproof access gates, and explosion-proof safety zones, making it virtually impervious to sabotage, terrorism, and large-scale environmental disasters.
To ensure 100% uptime, the facility operates as a completely self-sufficient ecosystem. It utilizes an independent climate control system and an autonomous power supply that functions independently of the public grid. This infrastructure is further bolstered by N+1 redundancy across its UPS, cooling systems, and standby power, ensuring that the critical IT infrastructure remains operational even during a total external utility failure.
Access to the data center is governed by a multi-layered security protocol that blends physical barriers with advanced technology. Entry is restricted through a mantrap system and requires multi-factor authentication, including biometric scans and card access. The entire perimeter is under constant CCTV surveillance and is patrolled by onsite security staff 24/7, ensuring that only authorized personnel ever reach the sensitive storage areas.
Reliability is maintained through a rigorous "dual control" principle, where all processes are overseen by a dual operation center. This 24/7 monitoring ensures that every technical event is addressed in real-time. Additionally, the facility is ISO 27001 certified, reflecting a commitment to international standards for information security management, and is equipped with advanced fire suppression systems to neutralize internal risks before they can affect hardware.
Swiss Fort Knox I offers a versatile range of hosting options tailored to the specific needs of global enterprises. Clients can utilize everything from shared rackspace and partial cabinets to dedicated full cabinets. For organizations requiring higher levels of physical isolation, the facility provides private cages and suites. All clients also benefit from "Remote Hands" services, allowing for professional onsite technical support without the need for the client to travel to the Alpine location.
