Secure Data Center Services Since 2002

Security is a must for any data center and with threats and exploits becoming more sophisticated every year no one can afford to take chances. Brass Valley’s enviable track record in keeping data centers safe isn’t a matter of luck. It’s the product of diligent adherence to established best practices and developing more effective protocols that exceed industry standards.

We Keep Your Data Safe


Our diligence in keeping your data safe extends to every service we provide, from deployments and set-up of new data centers to
decommissioning, IT asset disposition, and everything in between. Brass Valley’s incorporation of a shared risk model and High-Reliabilty Organization (HRO) principles makes us unique in our industry.

Layers Of Protection


Our
High-Reliability practices are a key differentiating factor that makes Brass Valley the service provider trusted by some of Massachusetts’ largest data centers. Innovation and imagination are assets we use to ensure both redundant layers of protection and heightened awareness of emerging threats and potentially catastrophic failures.

Data centers in Massachusetts trust Brass Valley because of:

  • Our stellar track record of zero breaches since our founding in 2002.

  • A comprehensive range of services including decommissioning and ITAD.

  • The Shared Risk Model we employ ensures we have ‘skin in the game’.

  • High-Reliability Organization practices that far exceed industry standards.

High-reliability data center services:

  • Exhibit more resilience than ordinary data center protocols.

  • Anticipate risks and errors and use redundant systems to guard against them.

  • Continually evolve based on new information and case studies.

  • Offer not only superior protection but more rapid responses to problems.

High-Reliability Support For Data Centers

The High-Reliability Organization (HRO) standard evolved in academia when experts in Normal Accident Theory sought to develop a set of best practices for risk mitigation. The HRO standard was developed for the hypercomplex systems found in a variety of fields from nuclear energy to air traffic control.

Robust Protocols And Procedures

High-reliability data center services go beyond ordinary protocols by using case studies of data center failures to develop more robust protocols and procedures. Proactivity, an acknowledgment of complexity, a refusal to cut corners, and a stalwart commitment to resilience are all key elements of our High-Reliability Organization (HRO).

Our High-Reliability Standards

Simply put, Brass Valley’s incorporation of high-reliability standards means peace of mind for our clients. We do more than simply run a tight ship and hope for the best. We continuously test and improve upon procedures and practices to both prevent breaches or accidents and to rapidly respond to the unexpected.

Our Elite Shared Risk Model

Since 2002, Brass Valley has been building a reputation for exceptional data center services. Our relentless focus on managing risk for our clients inspired our adaptation of High-Reliability Organization (HRO) practices. HRO standards help keep data more secure and ensure data center uptime. But it’s also important to us that every client feels that we are equally invested in their data security.

Our Shared Risk Model

This is why Brass Valley incorporated our industry-leading shared risk model. Like any great data center support provider in Boston or anywhere else — we direct a great deal of focus and energy toward data security. What makes us different is that we also focus on failure. Namely, what happens if and when systems fail.

We Protect Client’s Interests

Our shared risk model means that our client’s interests are always protected, first and foremost. In the event of a catastrophic loss, our insurance takes effect right away. You will never have to chase after us for reparations or anything else. That means we’ve got ‘skin in the game’, so to speak, and it’s more than most of our competitors can say. This extraordinary vote of confidence in our capabilities is just one more way Brass Valley delivers not only excellent service but peace of mind.

Brass Valley’s shared risk model:

  • Protects our client’s interests first and foremost.

  • Exceeds the coverage offered by the majority of our competition.

  • Ensures that Brass Valley has more at stake than just our reputation.

  • Demonstrates the confidence we have in our capabilities and systems.

Data Center upgrades: multiple vendors or consolidation?

Annoying delays out of your control

Multiple vendors are difficult to manage. And support can be sketchy. Picture the technician arriving on site, after driving halfway across the state, without:

  • valid ID to access your data center
  • all the proper tools
  • an entry ticket number to access your data center
  • knowledge of site power or connectivity issues
  • the crucial equipment or cable left at HQ

Corners cut and risk multiplied

Use an integration company and it’s not just delays that are out of your control. Sub-contractors…

One or more may not understand the risk of a data breach or environmental event. And what about recycling?

Can you be certain your integration company hasn’t gone for the cheapest option?
