Protect Your Patient Data Without the Worry

In the age of mobility, you need a security team to protect patient information. The good news? You already have one.
Gone are the days of the computer room, where equipment and data was safely locked away and under guard. Now sensitive patient information travels where you do—from exam rooms at your office to hospital rooms on rounds. And while mobile patient information is an undeniable asset to your patients and your practice, securing data has never been more critical.
So how do you protect patient information in the age of mobility? HP and Absolute Software make it easy—Computrace. Embedded in the firmware of current HP PCs and tablets, Computrace, when activated1, helps ensure that your HP systems—and the critical data on them—are protected. Here's how:
1.  Patient Information Protection
  More critical than a missing computer or tablet, is the data it contains. Computrace makes it simple to delete data remotely, helping to ensure that patient information is not breached—patients are protected and so is your practice.
2.  Equipment Tracking
  Computrace makes it easy to keep tabs on your equipment. Using a web-based map, you can track your computers and tablets—you'll receive an alert if a system leaves a predefined boundary.
3.  Theft Recovery
  If your computer or tablet is stolen, Absolute Software's theft recovery team—comprised of former law enforcement professionals—will take the information that Computrace transmits from your stolen equipment, and work with local police to help recover the equipment.
