As of 2013[update], the operations centre is used to house a secure data facility.

This Allied Command Headquarters centre was protected from enemy bombs by metres of rock in every direction and contained the board room where the invasion of North Africa (Operation Torch) was planned[3] by Dwight Eisenhower.

[4] It had its own systems for fresh air, electricity, lighting and communication links to the outside world.

The space now contains a very secure data storage facility previously owned by Vault Technology Services[3] and now operated by Continent 8.

[5] The size of the data storage facility is 3,000 square metres (32,000 sq ft), which is split up into 80 separate rooms.
