H ouse your data in a building constructed for only one express purpose – protect the information inside. Twin Cities East Data Center is nothing less than a concrete bunker protected by earthen berms. The position it holds makes it defiant against flood, storm, attack, and prying eyes. With redundancy built into both security and infrastructure support, chances are your data will outlast everything else. While exceedingly protected, the 85,000 square foot facility also provides the highest level of flexibility anywhere: build exactly what you need and we will keep it safe.
