IT Security Goes Nuclear, at least that's what they say.
"Venture capitalists are predicting a "business boom below ground" as blue-chip companies turn to nuclear bunkers built at the height of the Cold War in the battle to protect sensitive electronic data. The latest private equity investor to move in on the area is Foresight Venture Partners, which has just taken a 20 per cent stake in The Bunker Secure Hosting."
But no matter how deep underground you are, you would still be providing an Internet connection given you're a hosting company. That's an open network, compared to a closed one which is more easy to control -- thick walls wouldn't matter when it comes to connectivity and insiders. It's logical for any data to be stated as secure in that type of environment, but an authorized/unauthorized "someone"will want to use and abuse it for sure.
VCs often exagerate to develop a market sector they somehow envision as profitable in the long term, the real issue is that, while the idea is very marketable, you cannon base future trends on this fact only. They'd better invest in market segments such as portable security solutions, or risk management companies such as Vontu and Reconnex, which I covered in a previous post related to insiders abuse.
