The IT side of HIPAA, handled and documented.

The Security Rule’s technical safeguards, in place and written down, with systems that keep the schedule moving.

HIPAA Security Rule · 45 CFR 164.312

A bright dental treatment room with a chair and a wall-mounted screen, its cable in orange.

What’s different here

When the system is down, the waiting room fills up.

Practices run on a schedule, imaging and records that all depend on the network, and on patient data the law requires you to protect.

The schedule is the business

Downtime isn’t an IT problem when there are patients in the chairs.

Imaging and devices

Workstations, imaging equipment and shared screens that have to stay patched without breaking.

Patient data everywhere

Records, email, scans and backups, all covered by the Security Rule.

Guests and patients on Wi‑Fi

Kept on a separate network from anything clinical.

The obligation

Five technical safeguards, and a record that they’re in place.

The HIPAA Security Rule’s technical safeguards, at 45 CFR 164.312, cover five areas: access control, audit controls, integrity, person or entity authentication and transmission security. The rule also requires a risk analysis, and it expects the safeguards to be documented.

We put the technical side in place and keep the records: unique logins, automatic logoff, encryption on devices and in transit, audit logging, multi-factor authentication, and backups that are restore-tested. You get the evidence for your risk analysis and your policies.

Sources: 45 CFR 164.312, Technical safeguards; HHS, The Security Rule.

We support your compliance program with the controls and the evidence. We don’t certify compliance, and we’re not your attorney.

The calendar

Built around the working day.

Maintenance happens when the chairs are empty, and the evidence builds up every month.
