As of 2022, over 95% of hospitals in the United States use Electronic Health Records EHR systems. The volume of electronic health data is growing at an unprecedented rate, with the global EHR market projected to reach $47 billion by 2027.
The average healthcare data storage solution costs $10.93 million, highlighting the urgent need for secure systems and technology to protect sensitive patient information.
Outdated software and hardware systems are 25% more vulnerable to cyberattacks due to the inability to implement timely patches and updates of medical records.
In 2023 alone, over 20% of all healthcare data breaches involved IoT devices, 80% of these IoT devices remain unpatchable, leaving them highly susceptible to cybercriminal exploitation.
With our Instant Restore technology, you can rapidly restore large volumes of data, ensuring patient care is never interrupted. This technology enables your backup to start immediately as a Windows or Linux virtual machine directly from storage, while your data is seamlessly transferred in the background.
All backed-up data is encrypted to render it useless to cybercriminals. Our robust encryption helps you avoid costly regulatory penalties and maintain compliance. Enhanced compliance reporting with Data Protection Maps allows for detailed tracking of medical data storage, protection status, and critical files.
Central Data Storage offers disaster recovery solutions designed specifically to support healthcare applications, seamlessly complementing our HIPAA-compliant backup services. With our solution, you can ensure quicker recoveries, streamlined management, and unified protection against unforeseen incidents, safeguarding your critical patient data at all times.
Central Data Storage’s continuous data protection ensures that no in-progress work is lost. Our agent monitors all changes made within defined applications and backs them up continuously, ensuring your data is always current and secure.
We centralize your anti-malware protection and enable full disk backup scans from a single, centralized location. By detecting and remediating malware such as ransomware, we ensure that your backups are always clean and malware-free, providing peace of mind for your data restoration needs.
Central Data Storage provides industry-leading recovery time objectives (RTOs) and recovery point objectives (RPOs). Our storage solutions include malware-free recoveries, which avoid reinfection by failing over to recovery points that have been thoroughly scanned and remediated for vulnerabilities.
Our Advanced Disaster Recovery solutions are fully HIPAA-compliant, ensuring the highest level of care in handling sensitive patient data. Your healthcare institution can now achieve complete data resilience without compromising on patient confidentiality or compliance.
Our cloud based backup solutions scale effortlessly to manage and protect large volumes of healthcare and non-healthcare data. With flexible, cost-effective hybrid backup options, you can seamlessly manage on-site and off-site backups, accessible anywhere, anytime.
Central Data Storage supports over 30 different workload types through a single, user-friendly console. This flexibility makes it easier for your IT team to manage diverse workloads while reducing overall protection costs.
Healthcare data should be backed up regularly, with the frequency depending on the organization's specific needs, but typically daily or even more frequently for critical systems. Regular backups are essential to ensure data is recoverable in case of a failure or breach.
Data interoperability is crucial in healthcare because it allows different systems and providers to share and improve patient information seamlessly. This improves the quality of care, reduces errors, and ensures that patients receive timely and coordinated treatment.
Encryption secures healthcare data by converting it into a coded format that is unreadable to unauthorized users. During backup and recovery, encryption ensures that even if data is intercepted, it cannot be accessed or tampered with, protecting patient confidentiality and compliance.
On-site backups are stored locally within the healthcare facility, offering quick access and recovery. Off-site backups are stored in a different location, providing additional protection against disasters that might affect the primary site. Each has its advantages, and combining both can offer comprehensive protection.
Hybrid backup refers to a strategy that combines both on-site and off-site backups, leveraging the benefits of each. This approach ensures fast recovery times from on-site backups while also safeguarding data with off-site storage system in case of local disasters.
To recover from ransomware attacks, healthcare organizations should have a robust backup and recovery strategy in place. This includes maintaining clean, malware-free backups, regularly testing recovery processes, and having a well-documented incident response plan to quickly restore operations and minimize data loss.
