iCAS FS: The Secure Foundation for Resilient Backup Strategies
Data volumes are growing exponentially, threats are increasing, and compliance requirements are becoming stricter. At the same time, IT departments have fewer resources at their disposal. In this environment, the right backup storage is crucial for how well a company is prepared for attacks, failures, and crises.
Our backup storage iCAS FS was developed to make backup data independent, tamper-proof, and available long-term, thereby creating the foundation for a reliable system restart. The platform combines modern security technologies, true immutability, flexible scalability, and low operational effort in one integrated solution.
As an on-premises backup storage solution, iCAS FS offers maximum data sovereignty and full control within your own data center. Backup data is stored in a GDPR-compliant and audit-proof manner. It remains auditable and sovereign throughout its entire lifecycle – a decisive advantage for critical infrastructure (KRITIS), healthcare, finance, and industrial companies.
Why modern backup storage is essential
Today, data is one of a company’s most critical resources. If systems fail or data is corrupted, backup storage must ensure that recovery processes function quickly, cleanly, and reliably.
Robust backup storage does not prevent attacks – but it ensures that companies remain capable of acting in an emergency and can restore their data quickly and reliably.
Typical causes of data loss include:
Resilient Backup Storage – How iCAS FS Protects Your Data
Thanks to its extensive features, iCAS FS serves as the final but decisive line of defense against modern cyberattacks:
In addition to backups, iCAS FS is equally suitable for archiving, compliance data, or medical data – securely separated and centrally managed.
In short: Backup storage that withstands attacks. And grows with your company.
Because iCAS FS offers companies backup storage that:
- withstands even modern cyberattacks,
- protects data immutably throughout its entire lifecycle,
- relieves IT teams and simplifies processes,
- scales flexibly with data growth, and
- remains a secure long-term investment.
iCAS FS is the backup storage platform for companies that refuse to compromise on security, compliance, and availability.
Immutable, scalable, hardened, automated, and perfectly integrable: iCAS FS protects your backups, reduces complexity, and ensures maximum digital resilience.

What our customers say
"Only with iCAS FS are we able to securely preserve our artworks, such as videos, photographs, and digitized works. None of the alternative solutions evaluated could guarantee comparable flexibility, performance, and security."
Kerstin Mürer
Head of Restoration Department, Kunsthaus Zürich
"Thanks to the architecture of iCAS FS, we have had even less effort with archiving and storage since the switch. Since completing the data migration, we have handed over responsibility for it almost entirely to iTernity."
Andreas Naumertat
Team Lead Server/Storage/Backup, University Hospital Dresden
"Since its introduction, we have had almost no effort with iCAS FS. iTernity manages the solution better than any hospital employee – a major advantage and an enormous reduction in workload."
Andreas Gürth
Team Lead Infrastructure, Municipal Hospital Karlsruhe
"By using iCAS FS, we were able to reduce our storage costs by 60%. The cost advantages result primarily from iTernity's software-based architecture and the managed services approach."
Christian Zellermayer
Deputy Head of IT Department, AUVA
"The biggest advantage of iCAS FS is that, thanks to Managed Storage Services, we no longer have any effort with data archiving. Data is archived in an audit-proof and stable manner."

Ransomware Hits Critical Infrastructure
A prominent example shows how crucial reliable backup storage is today: A large German hospital group had to take its IT systems offline as a precaution after a ransomware attack.
The effects were felt immediately:
- X-ray and laboratory processes came to a standstill at times.
- Diagnostics were significantly delayed.
- Internal communication was restricted.
- Hospital operations had to be switched to manual processes.
The case illustrates how dependent critical infrastructure (KRITIS) facilities are on functioning backup storage. Only immutable, tamper-proof backup copies enable a fast and controlled recovery.
In such scenarios, immutable, auditable backup storage determines whether systems are available again within hours or only after days.
Immutable backup copies enable a faster and more controlled recovery in an emergency.
