Data security without having a data center in your business

The task of cloud computing and multicloud concepts is to disengage IT infrastructures from local computers by making them available via a computer network. A distinction is made here between software-centered (SaaS), infrastructure-based (IaaS) and platform-related (PaaS) services.
GFOS knownCloud provides you with a platform located in data centers in Germany. These meet the highest security standards and data protection requirements. The data center is connected to a glass fiber network and has an availability of >99.6%. A duplicated and separately supplied optic fiber cable network as well as permanent monitoring ensure maximum availability. Secured access is guaranteed through the use of high-available firewalls, reverse proxies and application firewalls - personal data is only transferred via encrypted connections.
Our service team looks after all the necessary components for you and ensures a state-of-the-art system:

• Fast deployment
• Required software and hardware components
• All common operating systems
• High-available databases
• Virtualized IT infrastructure
• Required licenses for your company
• Flexible scalability
• Mobile connection

In addition, you can outsource the following IT- and security tasks:

• Data backup and fast recovery
• Updates of operating systems, databases, hardware, applications etc.
• Ongoing safety- and penetration tests
• ISO 27001 certified and data protection compliant (GDPR)

In order to officially document requirements and high security standards and to maintain them through external controls, we are ISO 27001 certified:
