Property and Data Protection
The floorstand model is protected against unauthorized opening with the lock.
The server is also fitted with an intrusion detection switch which enables the
ServerView
programme to detect and log any removal of the left cover or housing
cover and the cover for the HDD modules.
To prevent it being removed from its location, the floorstand model can be
secured to a fixed object with a steel cable run through the tab on the back.
The rack model is protected against unauthorized access by means of a
lockable rack door.
To protect your system and data internally against unauthorized access, you
can use the

security functions.
