The Solution

Infrastructure and ongoing maintenance

We built the practice's IT infrastructure and took over ongoing maintenance and security.

A 1-hour response standard

Every reported issue is addressed within one hour of notification.

Weekly system testing

We test hardware and software every week for errors and pending updates.

A verified local backup

A second copy is kept on dedicated local backup hardware, with jobs verified every week.

Backup power

Backup power keeps systems running during outages.

HIPAA-aware technical safeguards

Access control, encryption and documented systems. We are not your compliance auditor and we do not certify your practice.

Questions About This Project

Yes. Small businesses are the most common target for ransomware and email fraud because attackers expect weak defenses. We implement HIPAA-aware technical safeguards and work alongside your compliance advisor; we do not issue compliance certifications.

We check backup jobs every week and perform test restores of real files and systems. You receive a short report so you know your data can be recovered, not just that a job ran.

It depends on data size, but with local NAS backups most offices can restore critical files within hours.
