The front-desk computers
Every computer on the office network shows up in one list. When a new device joins, you get an alert so someone can check it.
Retroworks / GateWatch / Dental offices
For dental offices with 5 to 50 staff
GateWatch is in early access. We're setting it up with a small number of offices. Book a call to see if it fits yours.
Find the weak spots in your dental office network.
Your office handles patient records, so knowing your weak spots matters. GateWatch looks at your office network, your email settings and how your staff sign in. Each morning it sends a short summary of what it found, with the proof and a suggested fix. Your team or your IT provider makes the change.
It does not make an office HIPAA compliant; your IT provider and advisers decide what to fix.
In a dental office
What it can find around the chair.
Most dental offices have no IT department, just a few busy computers and an IT provider they call. GateWatch helps you and your IT provider see problems like these, in words everyone in the office can read.
Imaging and X-ray computers
The computers behind your X-ray sensors and imaging software show up on the same list, so you can see what else shares their network. GateWatch never opens the images.
The practice software's server
With a small agent on the server, GateWatch checks its software against published security advisories and flags break-in signs, like repeated failed logins.
Guest Wi-Fi next to office Wi-Fi
Patients use the guest Wi-Fi in the waiting room. If a phone nobody recognizes shows up on the office network, GateWatch flags it. That can be a sign the two networks aren't kept apart.
Email patients trust
Patients get reminders and bills from your address. GateWatch checks the email settings that decide how easy it is for someone else to send mail pretending to be your office.
Mailboxes on a password alone
Shared front-desk mailboxes and staff accounts without two-step sign-in, named one by one.
What it checks
Some on day one. More after setup.
You choose how far to go. The day-one checks don't need anything installed in your office.
Day one
Nothing installed.
Open doors
A check from outside your office for open ports on your office's internet address. Only addresses you've shown are yours and signed for.
Email settings
Your SPF, DKIM and DMARC settings, which make your address harder or easier to fake. Plus any change to your DNS records.
Things about to expire
Your website certificate and your domain name, flagged before they lapse.
A morning summary
One short email each morning, plus a sign-in page with every finding, the proof and a suggested fix.
After setup
Each one is optional.
Devices on your network
A list of every device on the office network, with an alert when a new one joins. Needs a small sensor box at the office.
Staff sign-ins
Who signs in, and which accounts don't use two-step sign-in. Needs a read-only grant in your Microsoft 365 or Google admin.
Servers you choose
Software updates that are missing and break-in signs. Needs a small agent on each server. Servers only, not staff PCs.
How it works
Found by GateWatch. Fixed by your people.
- A short call. You tell us about the office: how many staff, which computers and who handles your IT. Pricing is quoted after the call.
- You show what's yours and sign. You show that the internet addresses and domains belong to your office, and you sign a written authorization that names each one. Nothing is checked before that.
- The day-one checks start. Nothing is installed for these.
- Add more if you want. A small sensor box for the device list, a read-only grant for staff sign-ins and an agent on the servers you choose.
- A summary every morning. Each finding says what's wrong, the evidence it saw and a suggested fix, ranked from critical to low.
- Your team or IT provider makes every fix. GateWatch never changes anything itself. When a fix is done, the finding is marked fixed and stays on the timeline.
Screens
The console, on a made-up office.
These come from a demo company with invented devices, addresses and domains. Yours shows your own office.
Hand it to your IT provider.
Every finding reads like a note from a careful IT person: what's wrong, why it matters and what to do next. The office manager can read it, and your IT provider can act on it.
The rules
Straight answers.
It never changes anything
GateWatch looks and reports. Your team or your IT provider makes every change.
Only what you sign for
Nothing is checked until you show it's yours and sign a written authorization that names it.
Read-only access
Sign-in checks use a read-only grant in your Microsoft 365 or Google admin.
Not your patient records
It doesn't open patient records, X-rays or the data in your practice software.
Findings, not promises
No tool catches every problem. GateWatch helps you and your IT provider see common weak spots early and know what to do next.
Quoted after a call
Every office is different, so pricing follows a short call about yours.
