HIPAA-Compliant WordPress Hosting

Secure, HIPAA Compliant Website Hosting for Chiropractors

Convesio’s cutting-edge security infrastructure makes it an excellent choice for chiropractors and other medical professionals that need to build a HIPAA-compliant website.

Unlike other WordPress hosts, we use Docker containers on a private cloud, which are isolated, secure, private by design.

HIPAA Compliance

What is HIPAA Compliance?

HIPAA, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, mandates that businesses handling electronic protected health information must adhere to stringent safeguards when handling certain types of data.

A HIPAA-compliant website, then, is one that follows these rules. Failure to do so can result in significant damage to your reputation and legal penalties, including fines.

Chiropractors, entrusted with sensitive health information during their patient care, are required to strictly observe HIPAA guidelines to maintain the confidentiality and integrity of their patients’ data. Adherence to these standards is critical in preserving the trust between patients and hospitals while also avoiding the legal and financial penalties associated with non-compliance.

Yes, Convesio issues Business Associate Agreements (BAA) with our clients, ensuring that data remains secure at every step of the process. BAAs are a must for being HIPAA-compliant.

Security Features

HIPAA Compliant WordPress + Managed Updates

With thousands of themes and plugins available, WordPress is the best choice for chiropractors looking to create a HIPAA compliant website.

While there are hundreds of WordPress hosting companies available, most of them are aimed at lower-budget organizations that care less about security. As you can imagine, that’s a serious issue for any chiropractor that needs their website to be HIPAA compliant.

Don’t worry – that’s where Convesio comes in.

Unlike most other hosts, we include a number of security features by default, without any extra charges. These work around the clock to prevent malware and bots that can compromise your WordPress or WooCommerce website. Other hosting providers either charge extra for more security features or don’t include them at all.

Most importantly, Convesio utilizes an innovative technology called Docker containers. As the name suggests, containers are separate installations of your website that are spun up if you need more performance.

The result is that your site is entire isolated and has isolated and dedicated resources. Your database, RAM, memory, CPU, and so on are dedicated – and not able to be affected by other sites on the server cluster.

More Secure than VPS or Dedicated Hosting

Each Convesio site is deployed on its own fully isolated container. This is unlike other WordPress hosting providers, where a compromised WordPress website on the same server can infect yours.

Encryption in Transit

When a user enters personal medical information on your website, that data is encrypted at every step, from the user’s browser to our platform.

Encryption at Rest

Our secure form implementation ensures that personal data is encrypted in the WordPress database without causing performance issues.

Offsite Backups

We store our backups offsite on Amazon S3, adding an extra level of redundancy.

Physical Data Center Security

Audit Logging

Keep track of who logs in to your website and accesses sensitive data with detailed audit logs.

Our Promise

Security is Our Utmost Priority

With Convesio, security is not an extra paid service. Unlike other WordPress hosting providers, we don’t tell our customers, “Sorry, we can’t help.” We work hard to keep your chiropractor website secure and if there’s a problem, we’ll solve it.

WordPress security is at the core of what we do.

Starting with our infrastructure: our stack is protected by industry-leading applications and complemented by a suite of specialist WordPress solutions. Other web hosting providers tend to skimp on serious infrastructure and instead choose the absolute cheapest option. As you can imagine, this is why many WordPress hosting companies have a poor record for security.

We also work with our customers to implement and configure security plugins for the front-end such as WordFence or WebARX. We can also work with you to implement your own security features and preferences.

This provides a robust security layer – but our commitment doesn’t stop there. We monitor customer websites 24/7.

Full Control Over Your Site

It's Your Site – We're Just Here to Help

Many other hosts catering to medical professionals don’t give you total access to your website. HIPAA Vault, for example, prevents you from directly managing users, adding/removing themes, adding/removing plugins, and keeping your site updated. Other hosts are similar.

Convesio, on the other hand, gives you total access to your site, without restrictions. After all, it’s your business! And yet, your site will be just as secure. This is possible because of our Docker-based infrastructure, which allows for high levels of security directly at the server level.

Compliance Auditing

When we onboard your site, we do a compliance audit to ensure that everything is set up correctly.

Encryption Setup

As a part of the onboarding process, we set up form encryption, database encryption, and in-transit encryption to ensure that all data is secure.

Continual Monitoring

Our monthly update process consistently ensures that your site remains HIPAA compliant.

Cloudflare + Monarx

Extra Security Features

Unlike most other hosts, we include a Cloudflare Enterprise plan on every Convesio-hosted site for free – a $500 value. Cloudflare is a must-have for any eCommerce / WooCommerce website that experiences high amounts of traffic and wants to maintain high security levels. We also utilize Monarx, a cutting-edge industry leader, for automatic malware protection.

Enterprise DDOS Protection + Firewall

Enterprise-level DDOS protection from Cloudflare, an industry leader in network security.

Cloudflare Web Application Firewall

Our Cloudflare Web Application Firewall (WAF) protects your site from attackers around the clock.

Malware Protection with Monarx

Monarx delivers automatic malware protection for your website, ensuring that any potential threats are eliminated ahead of time.
