Managed Firewall & Network Security for Healthcare Practices

Your practice runs on its network. Practice management software, imaging, insurance portals, email, and phones all depend on it. Many attacks start the same way: someone clicks a link to a malicious or phishing site. A cloud-managed firewall stops that connection before the page loads, on every device, whether it sits at the front desk or on a doctor’s laptop at home. Comodo Technology sets it up, manages it, and keeps it updated for you.

A cloud-managed firewall helps your practice:

Below we explain how cloud DNS security works, how it fits with the firewall at your office, and what Comodo Technology handles for you so your team can stay focused on patients.

What Is a Cloud-Managed Firewall?

A cloud-managed firewall, often called cloud DNS security, checks every website and online service a device tries to reach against constantly updated threat intelligence. Known malicious, phishing, and unwanted sites are blocked at the lookup stage, before any connection is made.

What It Does for Your Practice

Because it runs in the cloud, there is no box to install or maintain at the office and nothing for your staff to manage. It works alongside endpoint detection and response on each computer and is managed by the same team that handles your Managed IT Support for dental and medical practices.

Why Cloud Firewall Security Makes Sense for Practices

Stops Threats Early

Most ransomware and password theft starts with a click on a bad link. Blocking the site before it loads stops the threat before it reaches a workstation, server, or imaging computer.

Protects Devices Off-Site

Laptops used by doctors, office managers, and billing staff stay protected at home, at a second location, or on public Wi-Fi, not only when they are inside the office network.

Nothing to Maintain at the Office

There is no extra hardware to buy, install, or patch. Protection is delivered from the cloud, so new locations and devices can be covered quickly, usually without an on-site visit.

Centrally Managed by Comodo

Our team manages policies, updates, and alerts for every location from one place, so protection stays current without your staff having to do anything.

How Cloud Firewall Protection Works

Protection is layered so each device is covered wherever it connects.

DNS-Layer Filtering

Every website lookup is checked against threat intelligence. Requests to known malicious or phishing domains are blocked before a connection is made.

Roaming Device Protection

Managed laptops keep the same policies when they leave the office, so protection follows the device, not the building.

Continuous Updates

Threat intelligence updates continuously in the cloud, so newly found threats are blocked across all of your devices without manual updates.

Filtering Reports

Reports show blocked requests, risky activity, and which devices were involved, which helps with security reviews and your annual risk assessment.

Cloud and On-Site Firewalls Working Together

Cloud DNS Firewall

Filters web traffic for every managed device, in the office or off-site, and is managed entirely from the cloud.

Gateway Firewall

Managed at your office by Comodo, including:

Multi-Location Practices

One set of policies covers every office. Comodo manages the gateway firewall at each location and the cloud layer for all devices from one place.

Benefits of a Managed Firewall for Your Practice

Fewer Phishing Clicks Land

Staff are stopped before a phishing page loads, which lowers the chance of stolen passwords and email compromise.

Less Downtime From Malware

Blocking threats early helps keep your practice management, imaging, and scheduling systems running.

Clear Visibility and Reports

You can see what was blocked and when, with reports Comodo can walk through with you.

Support for HIPAA Safeguards

Web filtering and logging support HIPAA Security Rule safeguards as part of your overall security program.

Threats a Firewall Helps Block

Phishing Sites

Fake login pages for email, insurance portals, and dental software, built to steal passwords.

Ransomware

Malware that locks your files and stops the practice. Many attacks begin with a malicious link.

Malicious Downloads and Ads

Infected files and harmful ads hidden on otherwise normal websites.

Botnets

Infected devices trying to contact an attacker’s server. Blocking that traffic helps contain an infection and alerts our team.

Protection Beyond the Office Walls

Doctors review charts from home, office managers handle billing on the road, and practices open second locations. A cloud-managed firewall protects each managed device wherever it connects, without routing traffic back through the office.
