Conserve and manage expensive bandwidth

On the InstaGate, administrators can setup QoS policies to prioritize bandwidth usage on a per computer or per application basis.

- Protect the integrity, confidentiality and availability of all electronic patient information collected, maintained, used or transmitted
- Protect against any anticipated threats or hazards to the security or integrity of this information
- Protect against any anticipated uses or disclosures of this information that are not permitted/required by the Privacy Rule
- Ensure compliance by the entire workforce, whether they are based on site or at home
