Cybersecurity relates to the various methods used to protect computers and network systems from hackers and other forms of malicious attack.

Modern dental practices are equipped with a myriad of computers and electronic devices, from basic workstations and tablets to 3D printers and CBCT machines. Ensuring that your practice is safe and profitable begins with taking steps to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of your network, which contains business data as well as sensitive patient data. In addition, protecting your network is required by HIPAA and the HITECH Act.

Common cybersecurity tools include anti-virus/anti-malware software, software patches, firewalls, two-factor authentication, encryption, and passwords.
