The line of defense starts in the data center – security in peace, crisis, and war
We at Skygard are proud to be part of this week’s episode of Digitaliseringspådden, one of Norway’s most influential podcasts on technology and digitalization. The topic couldn’t be more relevant: responsible security in data centers – in peace, crisis, and war.Our own Bjørn Almås, Security Director at Skygard, was invited to the studio to share experiences, perspectives, and concrete measures on how we work with security at every level – from physical protection and clearance routines to preparedness and handling of threats that may affect national infrastructure.With a background from the police, the telecom sector, and now the data center industry, Bjørn has unique insight into how to build security both in depth and in height – quite literally. In conversation with hosts Dag Rustad and Jens Christian Bang from Digitaliseringspådden, he discusses topics such as:
How the threat landscape changes from peace to crisis and war
The responsibilities of data centers – and what rests with their customers
Physical security, access control, and crisis management
What it means to be an operator within Critical National Functions (GNF)
Being given the opportunity to share how we at Skygard think and work with security – on a platform that reaches the entire Norwegian tech community – is something we truly value.🎧 Listen to the episode here
