Re: Switch?

Actually, I can understand the hypersecurity (and for private industry, not government). In fact, I can think of three industries that certainly would not mind such security for their offsite data centers:

1. Heath care (insurance companies and hospital groups).
2. Utilities (electric utilities in particular).
3. Law firms.

These are, in fact, the three major industries that have been wracked by scandals involving LACK of security around their data and/or networks. And you are going to gripe about a data center that actually takes corporate security seriously?

They are for real. I have dealt with them personally and I know they are no scam. They actually provide better service than most any other company in the space. (at least ones I have dealt with)

Could this be just another "Bait" and "Switch" game?
They are apparently legit....Slashdot has a thread going about them and a link to the same Register article as here... Sounds pretty impressive but a bit overkill on the security for simple co-location IMO....would be good for NSA or CIA uses.......

-edit-removed redundant link...
