Current situation

Digitization of government agencies and municipalities is an important goal of federal and state governments. The introduction of digital file processing and archiving requires secure, reliable and low-maintenance storage systems. Lawmakers and the GDPR also impose strict guidelines for audit-resistant and data protection-compliant storage.

There is also the rapidly increasing threat of ransomware attacks, which can also seriously affect government agencies. The consequences of such an attack can be minimized by a modern backup strategy with high availability, maximum security and cutting-edge technologies.

FAST LTA is the market leader for audit-proof archive storage at German government agencies. Since 2008, together with our software and system partners, we have been helping government agencies deal with growing data volumes, legal requirements and the dangers of data loss and manipulation.

Our systems are certified.

From the very beginning, we have attached great importance to legal compliance and compatibility during development. Therefore, our archive storage systems also carry the certificate for compliant archiving, which includes GDPR compliance, for example, for the “right to erasure.”

However, interaction with your PACS, HIS or RIS is just as important. This is why our archive systems undergo extensive certification and compatibility tests with our software partners. In this way, we ensure a trouble-free connection and ensure trouble-free operation for years to come.

Our systems are flexibly scalable.

Whether you start with 2 or 200 terabytes, whether you want to expand to 4 terabytes or 2 petabytes: Our systems adapt flexibly to your data growth and can be scaled at any time – even retroactively – simply by adding new media.

We have a flexible and fair licensing model. As you grow, existing volume licenses are credited: The larger the system gets, the lower the cost per TB.

Our systems protect your data.

In times of ransomware and flood disasters, sensitive data needs special protection. Our systems are designed to last decades and incorporate various data protection technologies.

Depending on the storage medium, we use different data storage methods to prevent data loss due to batch errors. Written data is regularly and automatically checked for creeping errors (“bit red”) and automatically restored. Our linear file system with erasure coding and quadruple redundancy, along with continuous snapshots, effectively protects against tampering and accidental deletion.

And replicating data to a second location prevents complete downtime due to disaster or theft.
