A system failure on Monday morning with a full waiting room is no reason to panic with the right backup – just a restore.
Patient data is among the most sensitive information there is – backing it up is an obligation, not a precaution.
Backups are stored immutably via the object lock function of S3 Object Storage: within the retention period they cannot be overwritten or deleted – not even with stolen credentials.
Backups run to schedule without anyone having to remember. Failed runs report themselves instead of failing silently.
Certificates with scope, documentation of technical and organisational measures and the data processing agreement are available in the Trust Center – the basis for your processing register.
A backup is only as good as the last successful restore. Test restores can be scheduled instead of becoming an experiment in an emergency.
The GDPR requires both: keeping data available as long as retention obligations demand, and deleting it afterwards. Both belong in the backup strategy, not in a handwritten note. Retention rules in the object storage let periods expire automatically – and anything inside the period is protected against modification. Which periods apply to your institution is your decision; you get the technical implementation.
Clinics and medical institutions typically implement IT security with these modules – combinable and extensible at any time.
GDPR-compliant backup of patient data requires automated runs, immutable storage and documented retention and deletion periods. The core building block is S3 Object Storage from 5,00 € per month with object lock, complemented by cBacks for automation and cProtect for fast recovery. The infrastructure runs in our own German data centres, certified to ISO 27001 based on IT-Grundschutz (BSI certificate BSI-IGZ-0773) and with an unqualified BSI C5:2020 Type 1 attestation. New accounts receive €200 in starting credit.
