As someone who has actually had to service gear inside an equinox data center I’ll tell you this: mostly unstaffed yes but more secure than a bank. I had I think six layers of security to get through including badge readers, man traps, palm scanners and combination locks.

What is a man trap?
The thing you avoid by driving a stolen car into the outside wall.
