How Fusion One Technologies and Thomas Kane are Leveraging DOJ & FBI Cybersecurity Guidance to Defend Healthcare Practices

In today’s hyper-connected world, dental and medical practices face more than just the risk of HIPAA violations or ransomware lockouts—they face the threat of criminal liability, financial ruin, and even federal indictments if cybersecurity is neglected. That’s why Thomas Kane and his team at Fusion One Technologies have stepped up, aligning their cybersecurity strategies with the latest guidance from the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and the FBI to help healthcare practices move from vulnerable to virtually impenetrable.

Cybercrime in Healthcare: A Silent Crisis

The rise in cyberattacks against healthcare providers is not just a trend—it’s a crisis. These incidents have moved far beyond being mere IT problems. A single ransomware attack or data breach can compromise thousands of patient records, halt operations, spark lawsuits, and force a practice into bankruptcy.

Even more alarming: in cases where practices failed to implement basic cybersecurity measures, legal action and criminal investigations have followed. Healthcare professionals are increasingly being held accountable—not just by regulators, but by the justice system.

According to the DOJ’s Strategic Plan Objective 2.4, a top national priority is to "enhance cybersecurity and fight cybercrime" through public-private partnerships, incident response improvements, and aggressive prosecution of cyber offenders. Fusion One Technologies is doing exactly that—bridging the gap between federal standards and real-world protection for healthcare providers.

Using DOJ and FBI Guidance to Build Safer Practices

Rather than offering one-size-fits-all IT solutions, Fusion One Technologies has developed a forward-thinking, DOJ- and FBI-aligned strategy to help dental and medical practices strengthen their defenses and stay compliant.

Key Components of Their Federal-Informed Approach:

• DOJ’s Comprehensive Cybercrime Strategy
  Fusion One conducts thorough risk assessments, builds multi-layered defense systems, and implements real-time threat monitoring—mirroring DOJ’s focus on prevention, detection, and mitigation.

• FBI Ransomware Guidance
  Following FBI and DOJ recommendations, Fusion One ensures clients have segmented networks, secure off-site backups, and a rapid-response plan to quickly restore operations if an attack occurs.

• Bureau of Justice Assistance Privacy Guidelines
  Fusion One integrates privacy-first principles in every solution, focusing on patient data protection, ethical data handling, and transparency—core tenets in both federal guidance and modern patient care.

Minimizing Legal Risk: More Than Just IT Support

What sets Thomas Kane and Fusion One apart is their focus on risk management at the legal level. Many practices are unaware that failure to implement proper cybersecurity safeguards can result in criminal investigations, especially if patient data is leaked or destroyed.

Fusion One helps prevent these outcomes by:

• Conducting compliance audits and risk assessments

• Educating staff on phishing, fraud prevention, and secure data handling

• Regularly updating clients on regulatory changes

• Aligning IT protocols with DOJ and HIPAA standards

They're not just keeping practices compliant—they're helping them avoid lawsuits, fines, and indictments.

Setting a New Standard for Cybersecurity in Healthcare

While many IT providers deliver generic security tools, Fusion One goes further—delivering federal-aligned, proactive defense strategies rooted in national cybersecurity objectives. This is about more than antivirus software or firewalls. It’s about operational continuity, legal protection, and long-term peace of mind.

Their clients don’t just feel secure—they operate with confidence, knowing their systems are built to withstand modern threats and meet the highest cybersecurity standards.

Don’t Wait for a Breach to Take Action

In an era where cybercrime can end a healthcare practice overnight, the time to act is before an incident occurs. Whether you're managing a small dental office or a growing medical practice, relying on outdated or inadequate cybersecurity is no longer just risky—it’s potentially criminal.

Thomas Kane and Fusion One Technologies are helping providers rethink their approach to security by aligning technology, compliance, and federal guidance into one powerful protection strategy.
