The Security Advantages of Colocation with an Independent Provider

The Security Advantages of Colocation with an Independent Provider

Authored by: Chris Mirabello

With ever-evolving technology, comes ever-evolving threats. According to a recent report by Privacy Rights Clearinghouse, in Q1 of 2025 alone, over 32 million people were impacted by 658 distinct breach incidents in the U.S. With threats to our digital landscapes ramping up, increasingly complex compliance requirements are often put into place to combat them. This makes the decision of where to colocate your critical IT infrastructure more pressing than ever. While hyperscalers and large public providers are well-known for their capabilities, colocating with an independent provider offers distinct security advantages that could prove vital for safeguarding your business, data, and reputation.

Unlike large, multi-tenant hyperscale operators, independent colocation providers can focus on the unique needs of their clients. For example, at 365 Data Centers, security is woven into every aspect of our operations. Our 20 carrier-neutral data centers are strategically located across the U.S., each designed to deliver secure, reliable, and compliant colocation services. We operate with a laser focus on multi-layered security, combining robust physical protections, advanced network defenses, and rigorous access controls to create a comprehensive security perimeter for our clients.

Security & Compliance

While physical security is easy to overlook, this element is foundational to any effective data center strategy. 365’s facilities employ 24/7/365 monitoring, biometric access controls, and video surveillance to ensure that only authorized personnel can access sensitive areas. This multi-layered approach not only deters unauthorized access but also provides multiple opportunities for threat detection and rapid response. By maintaining direct control over facilities, independent providers can quickly adapt security protocols to address emerging risks, something that can often be lost in larger, less agile environments.

Compliance is another crucial piece of the puzzle. Our operations are built to exceed the requirements of leading regulatory frameworks, including HIPAA, PCI DSS, SOC 2, SSAE 18, and ISAE 3404. Our clients benefit from facilities that are not only compliant from day one, but are also audit-ready, with documentation and support available whenever needed. This proactive approach to compliance minimizes risk, reduces the burden on internal teams, and ensures infrastructure is always aligned with the latest regulatory demands.

Resilience, Recovery, & Support

Security goes beyond prevention; it’s also about resilience in the face of threats. 365’s network infrastructure is engineered with that in mind. We also integrate redundant power, cooling, and network systems to guarantee uptime and business continuity. We offer 100% uptime SLAs for customers leveraging both primary and redundant circuits, ensuring your data and applications remain available even in the face of unexpected disruptions. Our disaster recovery and real-time backup solutions further protect your business, enabling rapid restoration in the event of an incident.

One of the greatest benefits from working with an independent provider is the personalized service and accountability you can expect. Our experienced technical staff are always available to support your team, whether you’re facing a security question, compliance audit, or technical challenge. With 365 Data Centers, you have a single point of contact and a partner who is fully invested in your success, eliminating delays and focusing on what matters most: your business.
