Data centres are critical to global connectivity, making them prime targets for physical threats such as unauthorised access, infrastructure tampering and data tapping. FFT provides advanced intrusion detection solutions that help secure these high-value facilities with unmatched accuracy and reliability — helping data centres respond quickly to any type of physical intrusion threat. Operators receive immediate, location-specific alerts, allowing for rapid verification and response before threats escalate. The technology can also be used to monitor the health of buried cables, such as data centre interconnects (DCI) alerting teams to potential issues like damage or degradation that could impact uptime and service continuity. Designed for seamless integration into existing security platforms, FFT’s DAS (Distributed Acoustic Sensing) solutions deliver high detection performance with minimal false alarms — ensuring operational efficiency and robust protection.
FFT’s fibre optic sensing technology offers data centre operators real-time, location specific alerts for perimeter breaches, buried infrastructure interference and data line tapping.

Whether fence mounted or covert buried, FFT’s intrusion detection technology is suitable for data centre perimeters of all sizes, works effectively in all environments and delivers the highest probability of detection with the lowest nuisance alarm rate.

Working stand-alone or in conjunction with existing NMS platforms, FFT’s data network solution delivers a complete snapshot of physical network security and operational health by monitoring the physical cable.

Using DAS-based fibre optic sensing technologies along a power cable, tampering, theft and disturbance events too can be detected in real time allowing operators to protect cable infrastructure at the earliest possible stage.
