Orion Entrance Control, Inc. launches DataGuard™

Live at Orion Experience Center: DataGuard™, an automated modular entry room, built for ROI and Autonomous Operation

Today, Orion DataGuard™ enters live operation at the Orion Experience Center in Laconia, New Hampshire.

Purpose-built for data centers and critical infrastructure, DataGuard™ addresses a growing challenge across mission-critical environments: how to increase security assurance while reducing operational overhead. Traditional mantraps and layered entry systems often require dedicated guard presence at multiple checkpoints. As campuses scale, staffing scales with them.

DataGuard™ was engineered to change that equation.

By integrating advanced screening, biometric authentication, AI-enabled surveillance, asset management, and Orion DoorGuard™ LiDAR tailgating detection into a single synchronized workflow, DataGuard™ enables a largely self-service, unmanned entry model — without compromising security. Engineered specifically for the operational realities of modern data centers, environments that require high assurance, rapid throughput, compliance visibility, and scalable architecture.

At the Orion Experience Center, visitors can now see the complete ingress journey in operation:

• Credential verification
• AI-confirmed single-person entry
• Personnel screening
• Biometric authentication
• Integrated video verification and event logging
• Secure transition into controlled environments

DataGuard™ is not a collection of security components.

It is a turnkey automated entry room engineered and delivered by Orion — built to align security performance with operational ROI.

The result:

• Reduced reliance on dedicated guard staffing
• Increased assurance against tailgating and piggybacking
• Full audit trail visibility at every access point
• Scalable architecture for multi-building or hyperscale campuses

All synchronized through Orion’s proprietary AI platform, Infinity™.

We’re proud to launch DataGuard™ alongside industry-leading technology partners whose systems are integrated into this unified environment.

Today marks the beginning of a more autonomous, economically efficient approach to data center entry security.
