I wonder how the security is. It's just a matter of time until organized crime will start paying attention to this. Perhaps a bet for polymarket?

Better than most businesses. Most data center campuses I've seen, regardless of construction, were behind a substantial permitter fence and had some on-premise guard force. Like razor blades, they would be better to intercept GPUs or other equipment when in transit though there have been decades of rumors that such goods are usually done by trucking companies with ties to organized crime.
There was a recent case in the UK where a trucking company was sold. The new owner then proceeded to steal shipments.
Imagine a drone dropping incendiary payload. I dub thee ransomhardware.
