A Security Gatehouse is a staffed control point at a data center's perimeter entrance where personnel verify identities, check credentials, inspect vehicles, and manage entry to the site. It concentrates access control and monitoring at a single controlled gateway, allowing security officers to screen visitors and deliveries before they proceed into more sensitive inner zones.
