Structure and Security
We're a single-story, low-profile facility that is staffed and monitored 24/7. Multiple levels of access control and security procedures ensure only authorized employees and clients have access to the data center, cages and cabinets. Main entrance to the data center is through a secure man-trap while other data center access points require key fob authentication.
A secure data center environment is critical. Continuum continuously monitors all our internal and external critical data center systems and environments. Alarms are sounded to alert Continuum personnel to any changes in the optimal condition of critical environments and systems. Continuum was constructed with an EPDM, leak-proof rubber membrane and enclosed downspouts. It employs Cummins Diesel and Kohler Power Backup Generator Systems, a dry-pipe fire protection system and strategically located fire extinguishers.

From our Network Operations Center, Continuum's team of technology professionals maintain 24x7 visibility of the data center environment, bandwidth and power through the use of customized monitoring tools and constant visual inspections.
