ICT Best Practises - Provide adequate physical protection

Physical protection of IT systems is an often overlooked but critical component to any IT security plan. If someone has physical access to your machines, (s)he would have the ability to bypass most logical protection methods described elsewhere in this document. Technicians should:

• Ensure that physical access to all critical servers is restricted.
• Provide adequate climate control for all critical servers
• Technicians should consider the use of DICTS' Intelligent Infrastructure to host their servers through the office of the Director DICTS.
