How Intake.Dental Prevents These Breaches

Every breach above has a pattern. Here's how our security architecture eliminates the most common attack vectors.

🔐

Dual-Layer Encryption

AES-256-GCM + TreeChain glyph cipher means patient data is unreadable even if an attacker gains database access. Two independent layers must both be broken — simultaneously.

🛡️

Ransomware Resistance

Encrypted data with per-record keys means ransomware attackers can't threaten to expose readable patient data. Our dual-layer architecture provides safe harbor protection.

🎣

Phishing Protection

Role-based access controls, automatic session timeouts, and unique user identification limit the blast radius if a staff credential is compromised via phishing.

📋

Complete Audit Trails

Every data access is logged with timestamps, IP addresses, and user identity. Unauthorized access is detected and flagged — not discovered months later during an OCR audit.

🏢

Practice Isolation

Each practice's data is completely isolated with tenant-specific encryption keys and row-level security. A breach at one practice cannot cascade to others.

📄

BAA + Incident Response

Signed BAA with every account. 72-hour incident notification. Documented response procedures. You're covered from day one — not scrambling after an incident.

Don't Become the Next Headline

The average dental breach costs $250+ per patient record. Intake.Dental costs a fraction of that — and makes you breach-proof from day one.
