HDS v2 · what it means for you

A more demanding certification, for the benefit of your patients

The new HDS (French Health Data Hosting) framework, version 2, mandatory for all hosting providers since May 2026, significantly strengthens technical and contractual requirements. elionis has been certified under it since April 2026.

Data in Europe

Your health data is stored exclusively within the European Economic Area.

Full transparency

The host must disclose any possible access from abroad and the risks associated with non-EU laws.

A contract that protects you

Certified scope, measurable service commitments and a reversibility clause: you know exactly what is guaranteed.

Stronger security

An ISO 27001:2022 foundation, supplemented by healthcare-specific requirements and verified by an annual audit.

Our service commitments

Commitments written into your contract

For each commitment, your hosting contract specifies the indicator tracked, the guaranteed level and how often it is measured. You can check it at any time.

  • Backup frequency
  • Data retention period
  • Restore time
  • Service availability
  • Daily backup report
  • Return of your data (reversibility)

Three copies of your data

Even after a disaster or cyberattack, your records can be recovered

We apply the multiple-copy principle: several copies, on different media, including one offsite and one offline.

Your working data

On your server or in your elionis cloud: the records you use every day.

HDS offsite backup

Encrypted and replicated across our two separate server rooms, OPCORE and SSO, with a daily report.

Cold backup

An offline copy, on LTO magnetic tape disconnected from the network: unreachable from the Internet.

New service

Cold backup: your last line of defense against ransomware

Ransomware encrypts or erases everything it can reach over the network, sometimes including connected backups. Cold backup is a copy of your offsite medical data kept offline, on physically disconnected LTO magnetic tape: no attack can reach it.

  • A copy disconnected from the network, out of reach of cyberattacks
  • It complements your offsite backup without changing anything in your daily routine
  • In the event of a major disaster, we restore your data from this clean copy

High-volume backup

An architecture dedicated to your terabytes

Backing up dozens or even hundreds of terabytes cannot be improvised. For these volumes we do not pool resources: we design a specific architecture, at your practice and in the data centre, usually reserved for a single client and kept separate from our other systems.

  • At your practice: a NAS and a 10 Gb/s network sized for your production and for sending backups.
  • At elionis: dedicated professional hardware in our HDS-certified server rooms, in RAID 6 with tolerance for 1 to 3 failed drives.
  • Who it is for: ophthalmology and radiology practices and imaging centres, whose volumes grow every year.

Your high-capacity data is fully under control: in production on your NAS and in backup at elionis.

Setup

Simple for you, rigorous for us

Technical installation

We install and configure backup on your workstations and servers, based on your practice's needs.

Encrypted transfer

Your data travels encrypted, over a secure connection, to our certified server rooms.

Daily report

Every day, a report confirms that your backups ran successfully: if anything looks wrong, we step in.
