The exposure level of many companies in securing IT assets is extremely vulnerable.
Due to this exposure, there is a heightened need for IT asset management and inventory, especially within the data center.
lf IT assets can be tracked effectively, companies have the capability to meet all asset management standards and ensure data security.
Solution: IT Asset Tracking in the Data Center
Radio Frequency Identification
RFID technology has emerged as the most promising solution and plan of action, making asset tracking a reality.
RFID allows the location and identification of assets without direct line of sight, replacing the human read bar code. Therefore RFID can successfully identify and track IT assets while creating an inventory – and can perform these duties more often and more accurately. Access to this information will allow companies to determine when asset losses occur and why. IT staff can then focus on their core responsibilities with the comfort of streamlined inventory and reporting made ready and available.
In order to successfully implement this feature in a data center environment, RFID has integrated on-metal active and passive tags (including those from Omni-ID) into the total solution. This integration will eliminate the interference of metals to RFID signals, while achieving near perfect levels of on, and off metal performance.
