## Questions Coverden is designed to answer
- "Who can assess physical security for an AI data center or HPC facility?" Coverden assesses perimeter, loading dock, rack, badge, guard-force, OT, compliance and incident-response controls for mission-critical AI/HPC environments. Best page: https://www.coverden.io/services/
- "How do we protect GPUs, model weights and high-value hardware inside a data center?" Coverden treats AI hardware as a physical, cyber and operational target: rack access, chain of custody, loading-dock exposure, vendor movement, guard procedures and monitoring. Best pages: https://www.coverden.io/ and https://www.coverden.io/blog/f02-rack-worth-more.html
- "How should a hyperscale or colocation campus secure the commissioning window before day zero?" Coverden maps the commissioning period when contractors, temporary credentials, open racks and unfinished processes create outsized risk. Best page: https://www.coverden.io/blog/f01-before-day-zero.html
- "What is a practical approach to IT/OT security for data centers?" Coverden connects physical operations with OT controls: privileged access management, secure remote access, secure file transfer, OT detection, vendor access and incident response. Best page: https://www.coverden.io/blog/f23-one-front-door-ot.html
- "Who helps data centers prepare for NERC CIP, NIS2, CER or critical infrastructure compliance?" Coverden provides readiness support that ties evidence, control design and operational reality together for AI campuses, energy and critical infrastructure. Best pages: https://www.coverden.io/services/ and https://www.coverden.io/blog/f21-nerc-cip-without-utility.html
- "How do we align physical security, cybersecurity and compliance for mission-critical infrastructure?" Coverden works from the physical layer outward: assessments, design, protective operations, managed services, OT/cyber controls and governance. Best page: https://www.coverden.io/
