We find your security gaps
before attackers do.
I'm Kyle — Marine Corps veteran, former surgical tech, and former MSP engineer. I built PracticeShield because the practices most at risk are the ones running on the thinnest margins: the solo dentist, the three-person law firm, the family chiropractic office. The big scan companies charge $5,000+ for what I deliver for $199. Every snapshot that goes out has my eyes on it. This is not a bot.

Is your practice domain already exposed?
Enter your domain and we'll check it against known breach databases right now, free. If we find something, we'll email you exactly what it is. No strings.
Want the full picture? The $199 snapshot covers open ports, HIPAA flags, credential exposure, and a remediation plan.
What a breach actually costs a small practice
The $199 snapshot exists to help you avoid these numbers.
How It Works
Three steps. No disruption to your practice.
We Scan Your Practice
We analyze your publicly visible infrastructure: open ports, exposed services, email configuration, and your digital footprint. The same view an attacker would use.
Plain-English Explanation of Your Snapshot
No jargon. Your snapshot shows exactly what was found, what it means, your HIPAA compliance risk, and a prioritized list of what to fix first.
We Connect You to Solutions
You get a free 15-minute call with me. Not a salesperson, not a bot. I walk you through every finding in plain English, and if something needs hands-on work, I'll connect you with a local IT pro I trust to get it done right.
What's In Your Snapshot
A complete picture of your external security posture.
Risk Score & Summary
Low / Medium / High / Critical rating with a plain-English explanation anyone can act on immediately.
Open Ports & Exposed Services
Every door into your network that is publicly visible, including ones that should be closed. The exact view a hacker sees before they attack.
HIPAA & Compliance Flags
Specific findings tied to HIPAA Security Rule requirements, PCI-DSS if you take payments, and privilege exposure for law firms.
Prioritized Remediation Plan
Not just a list of problems. A prioritized action plan your IT person or our referral partner can execute right away.

“I'd honestly just give these snapshots away for free for the love of the game, but the deep-dive intelligence (Shodan scans, Hunter.io contacts, and HIBP breach data) costs real money in API credits for every run. The $199 just covers my out-of-pocket overhead and the time I spend manually verifying the findings so I can keep the lights on while protecting the neighborhood.”
Kyle Nicholson, PracticeShield
If we don't find at least three actionable security findings, we'll refund you in full. No questions asked. We've never had to issue one, but the guarantee stands.
WHO RUNS THIS
Kyle Nicholson
Marine Corps veteran. Former surgical technologist. I spent years working in operating rooms where HIPAA compliance wasn't a checkbox. It was the difference between a patient's trust being intact or destroyed. I know what's at stake when protected information isn't protected.
I built PracticeShield because the practices most at risk are the ones running on the thinnest margins: the solo dentist, the three-person law firm, the family chiropractic office. They're exactly who attackers target, and they're the last ones who can afford a $25,000 security audit.
Every snapshot that goes out has my eyes on it. This is not a bot. It is me, checking your exposure and telling you what I found.
Common Questions
Do you need access to our systems or network?
No. Everything we scan is publicly visible. The same information any attacker would see before targeting your practice. We never touch your internal network, install anything, or require credentials.
We already have an IT company. Why do we need this?
Most IT companies focus on internal network management: keeping computers running, managing updates. External security scanning is a different discipline. We look at what's visible from outside your network, which is where most attacks begin. Many of our findings are completely invisible to internal IT.
What if the snapshot says everything is fine?
That's the guarantee: if we don't find at least three actionable findings, you get a full refund. In practice, 87% of the practices we scan have at least one critical exposure. A clean snapshot would actually be rare, and valuable to know.
How long does it take?
Snapshot delivered within 24 hours of your order. Most are ready in under 12. After you review it, we schedule a free 15-minute call to walk through the findings together.
What happens after I get the snapshot?
You'll have a prioritized checklist your current IT team can act on, or we connect you with a vetted local IT professional who knows exactly what to fix. You're never left with a list of problems and no path forward.
Your exposure doesn't go away on its own.
Every open port and leaked credential stays exposed until someone fixes it. The question is whether you find it first, or an attacker does.
