Even better than data security through graffiti, some helpful folks seem to believe that they can secure our data center through use of graffiti. On a door leading from the loading docks that is never locked, and which plainly enters into the main data center floor (with jillions of bucks worth of equipment, etc) is a sign that reads “THIS IS NOT A DATA CENTER ENTRANCE”.
Some cheeky person scrawled “THIS IS NOT A DOOR” on it, and then another person wrote “WHAT IS IT?”. I had to respond myself, writing “THIS IS NOT A QUESTION.”
