Healthcare backup

Backup and recovery for hospitals and clinics

SIMPANIX Pro protects every server, virtual machine, database and device in your healthcare systems. From your main EHR systems to remote clinics. Your IT team can set it up, run it and trust it.

Healthcare backup
  • Locked backups that ransomware cannot change
  • Encryption and audit logs for healthcare rules
  • Self-hosted, SaaS or offline
The challenge

Why healthcare backup is different

Healthcare IT has many types of systems: EHR, PACS, clinical databases, virtual apps, clinic computers and NAS storage. They are often in many places, run by a small team, and must never go down.

Here are 3 ways healthcare backup is different:

One console for every system

Healthcare can include Windows file servers, Oracle databases, VMware clusters, medical image storage and devices, often at many sites. A gap in one place becomes a recovery problem everywhere. Most tools protect most systems. Healthcare needs all of them.

Restore the right data, not just fast

In healthcare, you must restore the right data to the right point in time. Speed alone is not enough. You need to restore a database to an exact point, or one file from a VM.

Ransomware attacks backups

Ransomware now attacks backups first, then live systems. Healthcare is a top target. You need locked backups at the storage level, that not even admins can change or delete. This is a must.

Features

How SIMPANIX Pro protects healthcare data

Here is what SIMPANIX Pro gives healthcare teams:

Locked backups stop ransomware

  • Object Lock on AWS S3 and Wasabi
  • No one can change, encrypt or delete backups until the lock ends. Not even admins.
  • You can still restore, even if ransomware steals your backup server passwords
  • Snapshot rules block deletion

30+ system types. Restore single files.

  • Windows and Linux servers, VMware, Hyper-V, Proxmox, MS SQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, Microsoft 365 and devices
  • One console. No separate tools, no gaps.
  • Restore one file from a VM, or a database to an exact point

Only changes are backed up. Lose less than 1 hour of data.

  • One full backup, then only the changed parts
  • Dedup, compression and encryption on your side
  • Up to 90% less storage
  • Old restore points restore as fast as new ones

Flexible deployment

  • SaaS on Azure, self-hosted, or fully offline
  • Use your own storage and mix places for the 3-2-1-1-0 rule
  • Data stays where your rules say
  • Backups run at quiet times, so clinical work is not slowed

Many layers of security

  • AES-256 encryption on your side, TLS 1.2/1.3 on the move
  • Data goes from source to storage, never through SIMPANIX Pro servers
  • Role-based access for approved staff only
  • Every access, change, backup and restore is logged for audits

Which healthcare systems does SIMPANIX Pro protect?

SIMPANIX Pro covers 30+ system types, including:

  • Windows and Linux servers
  • VMware vSphere, Hyper-V and Proxmox VE virtual machines
  • Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle RMAN, MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL and MongoDB
  • Microsoft 365 (Exchange Online, SharePoint, OneDrive, Teams)
  • Disk images, file systems, NAS shares, and Windows and Mac computers

You manage everything from one console.

How does healthcare backup and restore work?

SIMPANIX Pro only downloads the data blocks it needs for a restore. It does not rebuild the full backup. So old and new restore points restore at the same speed.

For MySQL, MariaDB and PostgreSQL, you can restore to an exact point in time (PITR), not just to last night’s backup.

For VMware vSphere and Hyper-V, you can restore one file or folder without restoring the whole VM.

Restore time depends on data size, your hardware and your network.

How are our backups protected from ransomware?

SIMPANIX Pro uses Object Lock storage on AWS S3 and Wasabi. In Compliance Mode, no one can change, delete or encrypt backups until the lock ends. Not even admins.

Snapshot rules stop backups from being deleted.

If you need full separation from the network, SIMPANIX Pro can run fully offline, with no internet.

Locked cloud storage plus an offline local copy protects you from network attacks and from stolen passwords.

Can we run it fully on-prem or offline?

Yes. SIMPANIX Pro has three options:

  • SaaS, hosted by SIMPANIX on Azure
  • Self-hosted on your own servers, with internet
  • Fully offline, with no internet

The offline option is software only. No special hardware is needed. It is made for strict sites where the network must be kept apart. See air-gapped backup for details.

What is the difference between self-hosted and SaaS?

Self-hosted: you install and run the SIMPANIX Pro backup server on-prem, in a private cloud or in an offline data center. You control everything.

SaaS: SIMPANIX runs the backup server on Microsoft Azure. You do less admin work, and we can help fix problems remotely.

Both work for healthcare providers of any size. In both, only your team holds the keys to decrypt your data.

How does SIMPANIX Pro handle backups across many sites?

You manage all sites from one console. Add devices automatically or in bulk with MDM and scripts. One person can manage backups at hundreds of remote sites, with no one on site. Set schedules, rules and storage, and check them all, from one place.

How does SIMPANIX Pro lower storage costs?

SIMPANIX Pro splits data into small parts before sending. After the first backup, it only sends the parts that changed. With zstd compression, this cuts storage by up to 90%.

SIMPANIX Pro also charges per protected system, not per GB stored. So you save even more as data grows.

How does SIMPANIX Pro help with disaster recovery tests?

SIMPANIX Pro has built-in practice restores. IT teams can run disaster drills and check they are ready, without touching live systems. You can test as often as the rules require, with no downtime for clinical work.
