:-) In the early 00's we were looking for data centers to host our infrastructure and I remember a couple of the tours we took. On all the tours we saw the man-traps and the fancy hand scanning bio-metric locks as they touted how seriously they took the security of our servers... ...but as we were touring one of the facilities, a large back door was wide open to the outside directly into the main server room. As far as we could see it was unattended. To be fair, I'm sure there was someone around... somewhere... and that the door couldn't have been left open like that for long (forget about access controls, environmental controls were compromised by that one, too!) At another facility during that same RFP, the sales guy was trying to get us into a room and the fancy hand scanner wasn't accepting his hand for entry. So in a fit of frustration he just opened the door... it actually wasn't locked at all. Ah... good times...
