Secure-24 opens $5 million data center in Plymouth

Secure-24 is secure in the thought that it has found just the right place for its new data center in Plymouth.

"It has all of the cool things that make a data center a data center," says Matt Wenzler, vice president for Secure-24.

The new 17,000-square-foot facility will allow the Southfield-based information security provider to continue its torrid pace of growth. It has added 35 people since March of 2008, rounding out to a staff of 105.

"We plan to expand a lot at a pretty dramatic pace," Wenzler says. "A great deal of the reason we choose that location is because of the efforts of Wayne County. We were originally looking at building outside of the state."

Secure-24 has hit triple-digit growth in recent years. That growth helps explain why the company has been named as one of Michigan's 50 Companies to Watch by the Edward Lowe Foundation.

The firm manages the IT of financial, payroll and logistic services for companies like Foresee Results and GM Racing, among others. The company was formed in 2000 by two men, Matthias Horch and Volker Straub, who relocated from Germany. The pair decided to locate to Metro Detroit over California.
