Cheshire, CT — Integrity Systems & Solutions, LLC, an experienced provider of dental computer technology throughout New England, is pleased to announce its alliance with Woodbridge, CT-based AuthAir Inc. The alignment leverages Integrity’s nearly two decades of experience installing, configuring and supporting technology in dental practices, to deliver AuthAir’s healthcare optimized authentication technology, the first of its kind security product to help ease HIPAA compliance concerns for dentists nationwide, specifically addressing the requirement to keep sensitive patient data away from prying eyes.
AuthAir Inc. CEO Yaron Baitch shares, “We initially set out to build a product that would provide doctors and their staff with more protection without requiring major revamping of the practice’s existing end user processes and procedures. AuthAir Dental was the first solution of its kind to add security while allowing dental office staff to move around exactly as they always have. The only difference is that they began wearing an AuthAir token in their pocket. The token makes use of secure communication, seamlessly interacting with AuthAir-secured workstations, creating a HIPAA-compliant audit trail without staff having to type in a code of any kind each time they enter the operatory or having to log out each time they step away for any reason.”
Baitch goes on to explain how the solution works, “AuthAir Dental client software and encrypted Bluetooth dongles are installed on each workstation at the practice. AuthAir tokens are provisioned to correspond with the unique identity of the staff member they are assigned to. When employees enter an operatory or approach a computer they’re authorized to access, and pass the pre-set trigger point that was customized by Integrity at install, the workstation’s AuthAir software will automatically sense the token’s presence and log that individual in. Similarly, when they step away, the system will sense the token’s departure and lock the workstation. This prevents patients from ever being left alone, for any amount of time, with potential access to sensitive information.”
According to Jon Northway and Michael Vincelette, Co-founders and Managing Members at Integrity, “We are pleased to bring AuthAir Dental to our clients, giving them an actionable solution to their HIPAA Security headaches that easily melds with their existing workflow. We know retraining would be disruptive to our clients, and with AuthAir, you don’t have to.” Northway goes on to add, “We also appreciate that AuthAir designed their solution to leverage our clients’ existing hardware and software investments, which is understandably, a big deal.”
Baitch adds, “Our latest release debuted last Fall at the American Dental Academy’s (ADA) annual meeting in San Antonio, incorporating several hardware improvements users were requesting. New AuthAir Dental Tokens feature extended battery-life, now guaranteed to last over twelve months and reflecting a more contemporary look and feel to the token itself, better ergonomics and interchangeable color bands to signal ownership at a glance. We’ve also improved our proximity setting to accommodate a wider variety of office configurations including those with open bays, shared computer cabinets and hallway stations. What’s more, we’ve exposed the Business Intelligence the AuthAir solution gathers for purposes of fraud detection and workforce analysis. The software alerts on after-hours login attempts and tracks efficiency metrics like room and staff utilization. Doctors gain both peace of mind and insight into time and motion of staff, which they can use to make profit-enhancing changes.”
