Re: Open Dental on the Cloud using Amazon Server AWS

It looks like they are opening port 3306 on the virtual machine.. Not a good idea. Best to use a VPN. The screenshot about opening port 3306.. that is like opening the port on your office router. And encryption is required for HIPAA and a VPN offers that. Also it will be slow.. best to use the Midd...

Re: Antivirus Software

For my clients i use the sonicwall firewall devices withthe gateway antivirus.
The router scans the network traffic before it reaches your office and cleans anything it finds, all before it hits your computers.
I also use malwarebytes on the local machines as a backup to the sonicwall.

Re: Windows 10 or 7 for new practice

I would recommend windows 7 until the programs run stable on windows 10.
As a tech you have to tweak the 10 os to get windows to use the mapped drives. Other than that I find 10 confusing to use.
