Secure IT Infrastructure for Hospitals, Health Insurers and Healthcare Institutions

Highly available, KRITIS-compliant, GDPR-secure – IT infrastructure the healthcare sector can rely on.

Digital Infrastructure for Healthcare

Where downtime endangers patients, every second of uptime counts

In healthcare, a secure and highly available IT infrastructure is far more than a technical foundation – it's a critical part of reliable patient care. Electronic health records, imaging diagnostics, laboratory information systems, medical technology and digital communication processes must be securely, stably and reliably available at all times.

At the same time, the challenges keep growing: data protection, information security and cyber resilience are becoming increasingly important in light of rising cyberattacks on healthcare institutions.

Strict regulatory requirements, advancing digitalization and the growing interconnection of medical systems require IT infrastructure that reliably combines security, availability and flexibility.

GRASS-MERKUR supports healthcare institutions with secure IT services and a reliable digital infrastructure – from data center and cloud to network and managed services, through to backup, disaster recovery and IT security.

In healthcare, IT is not a background system. It's part of care. That's why it must be secure, available and resilient — today, and exactly when it matters most.
