BT Data Centre Traka - Professional Security Magazine Online
BT?s flagship International Data Centre in Cardiff has 250 staff managing requirements of BT?s customers worldwide, BT Cardiff is a 60,000 sq. ft. facility comprising a 30,000 sq. ft. data centre made up of three 10,000 sq ft. data halls and 30,000 sq. ft. of office space with many areas and rooms that only authorised personnel are allowed to access.
As for security, on site, all keys and electronic cards are tagged with Traka?s management systems to ensure access to and within the building is controlled, as only authorised users gain access to keys, with clear audit trail capability.
What they say
Philip Richards, of BT Security, says: ?There is no doubt of the extensive demand for internet-related services such as web and content hosting, web design and data management across homes and businesses, on a global basis. The BT data centre in Cardiff stands as a globally inspiring ?hub? of creativity and development. As such, it has a multi-layer security mechanism, both physical and logical, enabling us to provide the extremely high levels of security demanded by many of our customers.
?Every element of the security is critical, but perhaps the most resource-heavy is key management. We have invested in the most sophisticated, internet enabled biometric scanning system possible, but essentially, if keys go missing, then security is swiftly breached. Traka was a critical component to protect the key systems in place and maintain overall security on site.?
Traditionally, keys had been stored in a basic key box and managed manually by management using a log book. Given businesses are busy and IT is vital, so management access to key IT equipment with such a time-intensive process, liable to security breaches from lost keys to unauthorised staff mistakenly gaining access, was not efficient.
With Traka?s product, keys on site are permanently attached (using a tamper-proof security seal) to a metal iFob, to ?electronically tag? the keys with unique identities. The iFob, with keys attached, locks into a receptor strip within a key cabinet until released by an authorised user via an automated and audited process. Traka cabinets, as installed at BT Cardiff are run with software and can be networked across numerous locations on sites, managed by one central administrator.
BT reports better access management. Not only are keys misplaced less, but the time spent managing the process has been greatly reduced and the automated authorisation makes for security. Personnel simply cannot access areas or use technology they are not authorised.
User profiles uploaded to the Traka system contain training details for all staff. This alerts managers when machine licences need to be renewed and staff re-trained, avoiding time-intensive manual tracking of staff qualifications.
Paul Mazaher, Major Accounts Sales Manager of Traka adds: ?As data becomes more business critical for BT customers and for the company itself, the need for failsafe secure data centres to create and deliver new IT solutions is critical. Even when it came to security systems, BT Cardiff looked for inspirational technology, and Traka systems have been an integral part of the security infrastructure for over a decade. The benefit to BT is the significant cost and efficiency savings for the security team, as every key and electronic card is accounted for, at all times, even without the team being on site.?

Apple brings iBooks to the Mac
iBooks has been limited to iOS devices for the past three years, but that's changing today: as of OS X Mavericks, Apple is bringing its reading app to the Mac. The software preserves all the features of its mobile counterparts, including highlights, notes and textbooks. Naturally, you can shop for books from the app as well. Apple only gave us a brief preview of iBooks at WWDC, but we can already say it's a more than welcome update for those who don't stop reading just because they're at their desks.
Follow our liveblog for all of the latest news from WWDC 2013.

Assad may prevail in Syria's civil war: Israeli minister
By Dan Williams
JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, backed by Iran and Lebanon's Hezbollah, may prevail in the more than two-year-old uprising against him, Israel's intelligence minister said on Monday.
Though the assessment was quickly disavowed by others in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition government, it reflected the difficulties facing Israel and Western countries in predicting Syria's destiny and weighing intervention.
Yuval Steinitz, minister for international affairs, strategy and intelligence, was asked at a briefing with foreign journalists whether recent successes by Assad's forces against outgunned rebels might herald victory for the Syrian leader.
"I always thought that it might be the case that at the end of the day Assad, with a very strong Iranian and Hezbollah backing, might gain the upper hand," Steinitz said.
"And I think that this is possible and I thought that this is possible already a long time ago."
Steinitz, who is not a member of Israel's security cabinet but does have access to intelligence updates as well as Netanyahu's ear, said Assad's government "might not just survive but even regain territories" from the rebels.
He declined to comment further on a possible Assad victory, citing Israel's policy of not meddling publicly in Syria.
"MISINFORMED"
The defense and foreign ministries received Steinitz's remarks coolly.
"This is Steinitz's personal informed - or rather, misinformed - position," said one Israeli diplomat who asked not to be named.
Netanyahu spokesman Mark Regev said Steinitz was speaking for himself and that the Israeli government did not have a formal position on Assad's prospects.
In June 2011, only three months after the Syrian uprising began with peaceful protests, then-Defence Minister Ehud Barak, the lone centrist in the previous government also led by Netanyahu, forecast Assad's fall "within weeks".
Months later, after a full-fledged insurgency had developed, a senior Israeli official said Barak had been trying to "jump the gun" and encourage Assad's foes to hasten his overthrow - an outcome that Israel viewed as inevitable at the time.
Yet the current Netanyahu government appears more cautious, given the four decades of stability Assad and his father before him had maintained on the Syrian-Israeli frontline.
Israel does not want chaos there, especially as it estimates that one in 10 of the anti-Assad rebels are radical Islamists.
Government officials also say privately they have urged Western counterparts to consider any aid to Syrian rebels carefully, lest the weaponry end up being used against Israel.
Israel has carried out at least three air strikes on Syrian sites that intelligence sources described as advanced weaponry in transit to Hezbollah. Israeli forces on the occupied Golan Heights have occasionally fired in response to Syrian gunfire when troops and rebels battle near the frontlines.
Alluding to Israel's superior military might, Steinitz said: "It is in his (Assad's) interest not to provoke us so that we get involved."
