Along with a robust cyber liability insurance policy, cybersecurity software and data backup serve as essential elements in your practice’s cyberattack prevention and recovery plan.
Maintaining robust cybersecurity in your dental practice can help prevent cyber threats. However, when it comes to mitigating the damage of an actual cyberattack, the importance of a cyber liability insurance policy cannot be overstated.
Cybersecurity is an ongoing effort. Regular training and education are crucial to keep your practice team ahead of the evolving risks.

Cybersecurity is no longer an optional investment; it's an essential shield against sophisticated threats targeting health care sectors, including dental practices of all sizes.
Data loss can happen to any practice, at any time, so it is critical that dentists ensure their backup systems are providing real-time protection and functioning properly.
