Security gaps shouldn't get in the way of patient care
Dental practices hold exactly what attackers want — protected health information, financial records, insurance details, and personal data. Yet most practices still rely on basic antivirus and hope for the best. That's not a strategy — it's a gamble.
Adlumin Managed Detection and Response, enhanced by SentinelOne, brings enterprise-grade cybersecurity to dental practices: 24/7 threat monitoring, AI-powered detection, autonomous endpoint response, and compliance reporting. It's all managed by TechCentral's dental IT specialists, so you get security that's configured for your workflows, your software, and your compliance requirements.
Why TechCentral for cybersecurity
Security built for dental — not bolted on after the fact.
Dental-specific security expertise
We're not a generic IT shop. TechCentral understands dental software, clinical workflows, imaging devices, and HIPAA requirements. One call covers your entire infrastructure — no bouncing between vendors.
Adlumin + SentinelOne: defense in depth
Adlumin watches the network with AI-driven threat intelligence and SIEM. SentinelOne watches the endpoints with autonomous isolation and rollback. Together, they catch what traditional antivirus misses. That's real protection.
24/7 SOC without the in-house cost
Our dedicated security operations center monitors, detects, and responds around the clock. You get enterprise-grade protection at a fraction of the cost of building your own security team.

| Clear compliance reporting | Demonstrate HIPAA readiness with professional-grade security and audit summaries. Documentation that supports regulatory obligations and gives patients confidence in your data protection. |
| Firewall and patch management | Enterprise-grade firewall monitoring combined with proactive vulnerability patching keeps your network perimeter secure and your software current. |
| Encryption and access controls | Data-at-rest and data-in-transit encryption, plus role-based access policies, limit who can reach sensitive patient and financial records. |
The real cost of a breach
A ransomware attack doesn't just compromise data — it shuts down your practice. Appointments get canceled, treatment records become inaccessible, and patients lose trust. The average dental practice loses $86,000 in revenue from a single cyber incident, and it takes 207 days to fully recover.
Half of all data breaches start with compromised employee credentials — a phishing email, a reused password, a stolen login. These are the threats that basic antivirus was never designed to stop.
TechCentral's Adlumin Managed Detection and Response catches threats early, isolates compromised systems before they spread, and maintains the integrity of your backups so recovery is always an option. When seconds matter, autonomous endpoint response means threats are contained before a human analyst even needs to intervene.
What customers are saying
Is Adlumin MDR right for your practice?
Every dental practice handles sensitive data. The question is whether you're protecting it. If any of these sound familiar, it's time to move beyond basic antivirus:
- Your current security is limited to antivirus or a firewall you set up years ago
- You've heard about breaches at other dental practices and want to make sure it doesn't happen to you
- A compliance audit or insurance provider has flagged gaps in your cybersecurity posture
- You want enterprise-grade security without hiring a full-time IT security team
- You're growing — adding locations, providers, or staff — and need security that scales
Your practice management software being in the cloud doesn't mean you're covered. You still have local workstations, a network, imaging devices, and staff who are vulnerable to phishing — all of which need protection.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between Adlumin MDR and regular antivirus?
Antivirus is passive — it blocks known threats based on signature databases but can miss new, sophisticated, or fileless attacks. Adlumin MDR combines AI-powered threat intelligence with SentinelOne's autonomous endpoint protection and 24/7 human monitoring from a dedicated security operations center. It's an active, layered defense — not just a filter.
What is SentinelOne, and how does it work with Adlumin?
SentinelOne is an advanced endpoint protection platform that uses behavioral AI to detect and respond to threats on every workstation and server — even zero-day attacks and fileless malware. It works alongside Adlumin's network-level threat intelligence and SIEM platform to provide defense-in-depth: Adlumin watches the network, SentinelOne watches the endpoints, and the SOC team watches everything.
Is my dental practice really at risk for cyberattacks?
Yes. Dental practices hold protected health information, financial records, and insurance data — all high-value targets. Healthcare is consistently one of the most attacked industries, and smaller practices are often targeted precisely because they tend to have weaker defenses. Half of all data breaches involve compromised employee credentials like phished passwords.
How does TechCentral help with HIPAA compliance?
Our Adlumin MDR service includes vulnerability patching, access control monitoring, encryption policies, and professional-grade compliance reporting. We help you maintain the technical safeguards HIPAA requires and provide audit-ready documentation that demonstrates your practice takes data protection seriously.
What happens if a breach is detected?
SentinelOne autonomously isolates the affected endpoint within seconds. Simultaneously, our 24/7 SOC team investigates the threat, contains it, and initiates recovery using your protected backups. We then conduct a post-incident review, update detection rules, and advise on any policy changes to prevent recurrence.
Our practice management software is in the cloud. Do we still need MDR?
Yes. Moving to cloud-based software doesn't eliminate your attack surface. Your practice still has local workstations, a network, digital imaging devices like CBCT scanners, and other connected systems that are all potential entry points. Staff are still vulnerable to phishing and social engineering regardless of where your PMS is hosted. Adlumin MDR protects your entire environment — on-premise, cloud, or hybrid.
Can TechCentral help train my staff on cybersecurity?
Yes. Social engineering and phishing are the most common attack vectors — and they target people, not systems. TechCentral provides guidance on security best practices and can advise on staff training programs to reduce human-factor risk alongside the technical protections Adlumin and SentinelOne provide.
How is TechCentral different from a generic IT security vendor?
TechCentral has dental-specific knowledge that generic providers lack. We understand dental software, clinical workflows, imaging equipment like CBCT and intraoral scanners, and how they all connect to your infrastructure. When your digital sensor loses connectivity to the server, you need a partner who can diagnose whether it's a server issue or equipment issue without wasting time. One call to TechCentral covers your entire system. We also offer nationwide coverage across all 50 states, scalable support as you grow, and the backing of Henry Schein — the most trusted partner in dentistry.
My current computer vendor is less expensive — why should I switch?
A lower hourly rate doesn't always mean lower cost. If your vendor isn't a dental IT expert, they may take longer to diagnose and resolve problems, resulting in more billable hours and more practice downtime. The average dental office loses thousands of dollars per day when systems are down. TechCentral's dental-specific expertise means faster resolution, fewer recurring issues, and a single partner who understands your entire technology stack from the network to the operatory.
