What livingston businesses need
Livingston is known for its healthcare institutions and a dense base of medical and professional practices. That shapes the IT problems we are called in to fix here.
Specialty practice compliance
Access control with named accounts, audit logging, encryption at rest and in transit, and contingency planning. The Security Rule technical safeguards implemented as configuration rather than described in a binder.
Imaging on legacy systems
Sensor, panoramic, CBCT and ultrasound software tied to operating system versions the vendor never recertified. Isolated and monitored rather than left on the flat network.
Backups nobody has restored
The EHR vendor backs up the EHR. Nobody backs up the imaging archive, scanned intake, or the clearinghouse machine. We test the restore and give you the evidence.

Questions from livingston businesses
Will you sign a Business Associate Agreement?
Yes, before we access anything. Any IT provider with access to systems holding protected health information is a business associate under HIPAA, and a provider who hesitates on a BAA is telling you something important.
Can you make our practice HIPAA compliant?
No provider can. Compliance is an organizational program covering administrative, physical and technical safeguards, and parts of it belong to the practice. What we do is implement and evidence the technical safeguards and hand you documentation an auditor can use. Anyone selling a HIPAA compliance certificate is selling nothing.
Our imaging software only runs on an old Windows version. Now what?
We isolate it: its own network segment, tightly restricted traffic, application allowlisting, no general internet or email, and monitoring around it. That contains the risk while you plan the vendor upgrade.
