Managed Firewall

Protects entire system, like a locked door against home intruders. This is an important first line of defense that protects against most outside threats.

Rather than waiting for a security breach, we proactively watch for cyber threats. We can determine if your system is about to become a victim and stop the threat before it causes harm.

Email Encryption

Confidential email can easily be intercepted by those who want access to do you harm. We can encrypt your outgoing email so only the intended recipient can read it. To hackers, your emails will appear as useless gibberish.

Content Blocking

Threats to Your Medical Practice from Your Own Technology

Most business owners think nothing will happen to their network.

Until it does.

These are common threats to small businesses that happen every day that can cost tens of thousands of dollars to overcome.

System & Cyber Threats

  • System Outage
  • Lost Productivity
  • Viruses and Spyware
  • Ransomware
  • Email Interception

Data Theft or Deletion

  • Patient records
  • Payroll info
  • Patient accounts
  • Confidential email
  • Insurance information
  • Clinical trials data

Why Securing Patient Data is so Critical

  • 32 million medical records have been breached in the US since 2009

  • Medical records are more detailed than credit records, and contain valuable info for identity thieves

  • Practices can be heavily fined and held liable for security breaches

  • HIPAA requires it

Top Target: Billing & Insurance Data

More valuable to Hackers than Credit Card Data

Your patients’ medical information is worth more than ten times their credit card number on the black market, according to Reuters. Criminals can use the data – such as their name, birth date, policy number, and billing information – for insurance fraud and other scams. This is one reason why billing and insurance information is the most-breached type of data at BAs.

Cyber Attacks on Small Business

According to the 2018 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report, 58% of cyber attack victims were small businesses because they are easy prey — they don’t put real security measures in place.
