As AI workloads reshape the data center, operators are managing facilities that carry more critical infrastructure, more sensitive data, and greater financial value than ever before.
A security incident that might once have been considered a localized operational issue can now have significant financial, operational, and reputational consequences.
For Etienne Van Der Watt, vice president at Axis Communications, this changing landscape requires operators to rethink how they approach security:
"If we look a little bit deeper, the risks that we see today aren't entirely new. What’s really changed is the value of what’s being protected."
Expanding workloads, increasingly complex operations, and evolving threats are forcing operators to adopt a more agile mindset. As technology cycles continue to develop at pace, long-standing security strategies must upgrade in tandem.
