What is HIPAA Compliance?

HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996) requires businesses that process, store or transmit electronic protected health information (ePHI or PHI) to comply with strict administrative, physical and technical safeguards. C6NHosting offers managed dedicated, VPS, and cloud dedicated solutions compliant with HIPAA guidelines. A third-party audit confirms that C6NHosting is HITECH Certified.

Often, the consequences of the loss or compromise of protected health information could cause irreparable damage to a client's reputation, or even serious legal penalties. In order to ensure our clients are protected, we have crafted compliant hosting solutions, making sure technical controls, backup management, safeguards and physical security policies are in place, all to verify that your data is secured to industry standards.

Backup Management

Protect your data with Acronis Cyber Backup, our fully managed, robust backup solution for Linux and Windows Managed Dedicated Servers Acronis is a fully customizable backup solution that can capture your entire system configuration or just specific files, saving them all to an external storage system or to the Acronis cloud. You can recover single files or your exact server configuration in the case of a catastrophic event. C6NHosting’s partnership with Acronis gives every client full access to the Acronis interface so you have control. You can set up schedules, change what’s backed up, or restore files without contacting C6NHosting. When you pair Acronis Cyber Backup with our state-of-the-art, secure Data Centers - featuring SSAE-16, PCI compliance, Safe Harbor Certification, and 24x7x365 on-site support - we can ensure unparalleled uptime and safeguard against data loss in even the most extreme circumstances.

  • Incremental Snapshots
  • Bare-Metal Disaster Recovery
  • High Performance, Low System Impact
  • cPanel Administration Plugin
  • MySQL Database Plugin
  • Disk Safe Data Encryption Available
How It Works
  1. By default, Acronis directly reads your hard disk volumes at the sector level, bypassing the file system for the ultimate in performance and recovery. The disk sector synchronization is performed while the server is online and causes no interruption to I/O requests, even on a busy server.
  2. Acronis can also be configured to read at a file-by-file level if there are specific files you’d like tracked at a different cadence.
  3. By reading the disk at the lowest possible level, Acronis captures incremental recovery images, containing your files and all the required information for consistent point-in-time system-wide backup images.
  4. These sector-based backups increase throughput and reduce overhead so that servers can be fully operational with minimal performance impact while the backup is taking place. Backups can usually be performed at any time, even on busy servers.
  5. All data is safely stored on off-server backup nodes, ensuring data continuity even in case of catastrophic failure. Customers can choose to store their data on C6NHosting’s cloud storage or on the Acronis cloud, currently hosted in Phoenix, AZ.
  6. Clients can also choose to encrypt their data. With a click of a button, Acronis Cyber Backup can encrypt data before its stored, perfect for maintaining extra security and for any imposed compliance requirements.
  7. When necessary, you can restore servers directly from your disk-based backups. Unlike traditional backup software, there is NO need to first partition your drive and install the operating system. In addition, our bare metal recovery greatly increases the speed of complete system recovery from a catastrophic failure.
  8. Recovery, management, scheduling, and configuration are all available at your fingertips with the Acronis backup interface, available via a single-sign-on link in your My Liquid Web interface. Customers can make any changes, start a recovery, or just check on available backups.
  9. Our Managed Dedicated Server customers who are running Linux can also manage their backups through the Acronis cPanel Plugin, accessible directly from your cPanel interface. The plugin grants server-level or user-level access to backups and restores all conveniently from the users cPanel interface.
  10. The cPanel plugin is available to all cPanel users and included with new servers. If you have an existing server and would like the plugin, just open a ticket! Our Helpful Humans can install it with no issues.
