In a small practice, security usually lands on the office manager or the owner, on top of everything else. Rhino Shield gives you a clear picture of your devices, your network, your vendors and your HIPAA safeguards, without hiring a full-time IT team.
Find every computer, printer, server and connected clinical device, and keep the list current.
Track HIPAA safeguards, vendor agreements and maintenance in one place instead of scattered spreadsheets.
Find the paths an attacker could use to reach sensitive systems, so you know what to fix first.
Nine tools that small practices usually piece together from spreadsheets, sticky notes and outside vendors.
Record every computer, server, printer and network device. Get warranty and maintenance alerts, with maintenance schedules linked to each asset.
Track connected clinical devices and match them against published security advisories.
List every vendor that handles patient data and the status of each Business Associate Agreement.
See how your safeguards line up with HIPAA Security Rule requirements, and where the gaps are.
Run network health checks, WiFi signal tests and internet speed tests, and see results room by room.
Map the routes an attacker could use to reach sensitive systems, so you can close them in the right order.
Identify your gateway and fingerprint each network, so data from multiple locations stays separate.
A Windows agent reports from each PC and only runs commands from a fixed allow-list.
Give owners, managers and IT staff the access their role needs, and nothing more.
The HIPAA Security Rule requires an accurate and thorough risk analysis (45 CFR §164.308(a)(1)). That analysis depends on knowing your devices, your vendors and your safeguards. Rhino Shield keeps those records up to date, so you aren’t rebuilding them from scratch every year.
HHS has proposed changes to the HIPAA Security Rule, including a written inventory of technology assets and a network map. The rule is still proposed, not final, and HHS currently targets July 2027. Rhino Shield’s asset register and network tools help you start that work now.
