    As part of my job I have been to data centers for housed servers a few times. Even tho I just saw like 2 or 3 ppl working there, they had tight security. I had to show ID, be on a list and got a visitor lanyard. There were security cams. Also there was a gate that only let you in when the receptionist/guard buzzed you thru. They had free ear protection available. The lanyard would only let you open the heavy metal doors where your servers are and a room with some terminals I didn’t need to use. No windows.

    I think you would’t make it to the devices before the cops arrive.

    Maybe a long term infiltration strategy could work, but even if you pull it off, I doubt it’s worth the hassle.

      The big red key opens many doors, fed boy.

      That and gasoline and matches are cheap. Just start in the generator room, where the diesel is.

      I’m pretty certain 5-10 people with intent could make sure a DC gets razed.
