Advanced Cybersecurity for Healthcare & Law Firms
MDR, Zero Trust architecture, HIPAA compliance automation, penetration testing, and incident response — built for the regulatory and threat environment your practice actually operates in.
Six Security Capabilities. One Accountable Provider.
Every capability below is built for a healthcare or legal environment — not retrofitted from an enterprise playbook. We understand PHI, attorney-client privilege, and what regulators actually look for.
Managed Detection & Response (MDR)
SentinelOne Vigilance — 24/7 SOC with Human Triage
Automated alerts are not MDR. SentinelOne Vigilance pairs AI-driven endpoint detection with a human SOC analyst team that investigates, validates, and contains threats in real time — not the next business day. Infected endpoints are isolated in seconds. Your practice never stops.
Right for you if:
- Healthcare practices with PHI on endpoints
- Law firms with confidential client data
- Any practice that can't afford a 277-day detection gap
Zero Trust Architecture
NIST 800-207 Aligned — Microsoft Entra ID, ZTNA, PAW
Zero Trust means no user, no device, and no application is trusted by default — even inside your network. We implement this through Microsoft Entra ID conditional access policies, Privileged Identity Management (PIM), Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) to replace legacy VPN, and Privileged Access Workstations for high-risk admin accounts.
Right for you if:
- Practices with remote or hybrid staff
- Multi-location environments
- Any practice still using VPN for remote access
Compliance Automation
Vanta & Drata — Continuous HIPAA, SOC 2, ABA, PCI-DSS
Annual HIPAA risk assessments are a compliance floor, not a ceiling. Vanta and Drata continuously test your controls, collect evidence automatically, and maintain a real-time compliance posture dashboard. When your auditor arrives — or when OCR sends a data request — you have documented evidence ready, not a fire drill.
Right for you if:
- Practices subject to HIPAA/HITECH
- Law firms under ABA Model Rule 1.6
- Any practice preparing for SOC 2 or PCI-DSS
Penetration Testing
External & Internal — Real Attacker Methodology
A vulnerability scan tells you what could be exploited. A penetration test tells you what would be. Our annual pen tests use the same techniques as real threat actors — credential stuffing, lateral movement, privilege escalation — with a written report that prioritizes findings by actual business risk, not CVSS score.
Right for you if:
- Practices requiring annual pen testing for HIPAA or cyber insurance
- Law firms after a near-miss or incident
- Any practice that hasn't tested since their last MSP set them up
Security Awareness Training
KnowBe4 — Phishing Simulations & Live HIPAA Training
Your staff is your largest attack surface. KnowBe4's platform runs continuous phishing simulations and automated training assignments so employees learn from near-misses rather than real breaches. We supplement with live HIPAA privacy and security sessions and an AI & Shadow IT awareness workshop specific to clinical and legal workflows.
Right for you if:
- Practices onboarding new clinical or administrative staff
- Law firms with BYOD policies
- Any practice where a staff member has clicked a phishing link
Incident Response
Retainer-Based Priority Response — Contain, Recover, Report
When a breach happens, the first 4 hours determine whether it's a recoverable incident or a reportable crisis. Our IR retainer clients get a dedicated response contact, a pre-built runbook for their environment, and SLA-backed containment — so you're not Googling 'what to do after ransomware' while patient records are at risk.
Right for you if:
- Practices with HIPAA breach notification obligations
- Law firms with Bar reporting requirements
- Any practice that can't afford OCR-level response delays
Built for Your Regulatory Environment
Generic cybersecurity advice doesn't account for OCR investigations or state bar disciplinary proceedings. Ours does.

Incidents Prevented. Audits Passed.
"Our pen test found that a former employee's credentials were still active and had Domain Admin access. That would have been catastrophic in a ransomware attack. BITS found it, remediated it, and implemented PIM so it can never happen again."
"We had a phishing incident last spring — a staff member clicked a link. Because BITS had SentinelOne running and an IR retainer in place, we contained it in under an hour with no PHI exposed and no breach notification required."
"Vanta changed our HIPAA program completely. Before, we scrambled every year to pull evidence together. Now the dashboard shows our control status every day and our auditor gets everything they need in 20 minutes."
Cybersecurity Questions We Get Every Week
What's the difference between MDR and traditional antivirus?
Traditional antivirus matches files against a known-threat database — it misses novel ransomware variants and fileless attacks. MDR (Managed Detection & Response) uses behavioral AI to detect what antivirus can't see, plus a human SOC analyst who validates and responds to alerts around the clock. SentinelOne Vigilance combines both — AI detection plus human triage — so threats are contained in minutes, not hours.
Does our practice actually need a penetration test?
If you accept health insurance or handle patient records, most cyber insurance carriers now require annual pen testing. HIPAA doesn't explicitly mandate it, but OCR's Security Rule requires testing the effectiveness of your security controls — and a pen test is the defensible way to do that. For law firms, ABA Formal Opinion 477R recommends regular security testing. Beyond compliance, a pen test often finds misconfigurations that have been in place since your last IT provider set things up.
We already passed our HIPAA audit. Why do we need continuous compliance monitoring?
A point-in-time HIPAA audit tells you you were compliant on the day you were assessed. Vanta's continuous monitoring tells you whether you're compliant today — and alerts you the moment a control drifts. Most HIPAA violations that result in OCR fines weren't new problems — they were longstanding gaps that were never caught between annual audits. Continuous monitoring closes that window.
How does the incident response retainer work?
Retainer clients pay a monthly fee to secure priority response in the event of a breach. Before anything happens, we conduct a discovery session to understand your environment, build a runbook, and identify your key contacts. When an incident occurs, retainer clients skip the queue and get a dedicated IR contact with a guaranteed response SLA. Non-retainer clients get incident response on a best-efforts basis at our standard emergency rate.
What is Dark Web Credential Monitoring and why does it matter?
Credential stuffing attacks — where attackers try breached username/password pairs against your email, VPN, or EHR login — are the #1 cause of unauthorized access in healthcare and legal environments. Dark Web Credential Monitoring scans criminal marketplaces and data dumps for your users' credentials and alerts you the moment a match is found, before an attacker uses them. At that point you reset the password and enable MFA. Without monitoring, you often find out after the access has already happened.
Can you do a security assessment if we already have an MSP?
Yes — and this is one of the most common engagements we do. We assess your current environment independently of your existing MSP and deliver a written gap analysis. Many practices discover their current MSP has left MFA unconfigured, is using consumer-grade backup, or has never run a SIEM. The assessment report is yours to use however you see fit.
What does a tabletop ransomware exercise actually involve?
A tabletop is a structured walkthrough of a ransomware scenario with your leadership team — not a technical drill. We present the scenario in stages (initial infection, detection, spread, ransom demand) and guide your team through decisions: when to call the FBI, when to notify patients, how to handle media inquiries, whether to pay. The outcome is an incident response plan your team has actually practiced, not a document that lives on a shared drive.
