Data Centers

Proof of physical presence where critical systems live.

Credentials prove possession.
Not presence.

Badges, PINs and phones confirm that a credential was presented. They cannot confirm that its authorized holder was physically there. In a facility where one person at the wrong rack can take down a customer’s service, that gap is the risk.

Data Hall & Secure Cage

Admit authorized personnel who are physically present, not whoever is holding the badge.

Remote Hands & Vendor Maintenance

Give tenants evidence that the authorized technician was on site when the work was done.

Critical Operations Authorization

Require an authorized human, physically present, before high-consequence actions run, whether an operator or an AI agent starts them.

Where METAiD Applies

Eight control points in a data center, the gap each one leaves open today, and the solutions that close it.

Scenario	The gap today	METAiD solutions
Main Entrance & Mantrap	Badges, PINs and mobile credentials can be shared, cloned or handed over. None of them proves the authorized holder is the one at the door.	Secure Physical Access AI-Resistant Physical Verification Access Control Management
Data Hall	Restricted server zones often rely on the same transferable credentials as the lobby, with no assurance that the authorized holder is the one physically entering.	Secure Physical Access AI-Resistant Physical Verification Access Control Management
Secure / Customer Cage	Multi-tenant facilities must keep each tenant’s permissions separate and show tenants that only their authorized people entered.	Secure Physical Access In-Person Authorization Access Control Management
Remote Hands	Tenants need evidence that the authorized technician was on site when work was performed on their equipment.	Secure Physical Access In-Person Authorization Time & Attendance Management
Vendor Maintenance	Contractors receive time-limited credentials, but most systems cannot show the credential was used by the person it was issued to.	Secure Physical Access Time & Attendance Management Access Control Management
NOC / Control Room	High-privilege actions need an accountable record that an authorized operator was physically present.	Secure Physical Access In-Person Authorization Access Control Management
Power, UPS & Cooling	Local intervention can interrupt service instantly, yet a digital permission alone does not prove an authorized person is on site.	Secure Physical Access In-Person Authorization AI-Resistant Physical Verification
Automated & AI-Agent Actions	Automated and agent-driven actions execute in seconds. High-consequence steps need independent evidence that an authorized human was physically present to approve them.	In-Person Authorization AI Agent Authorization AI-Resistant Physical Verification

Built for how data centers already run.

Keeps your access control system

METAiD readers connect to existing access control panels over Wiegand or OSDP. No rip-and-replace of the systems your security team already operates.

No color camera inside customer cages

Depth sensing only, with no RGB sensor by design. Nothing captures a photographic image of people, tenant equipment or screens.

Presence records you can audit

Every verified entry and authorization is recorded in IAMS and available to your own systems through the Enterprise API.
