4  Information Security for T.O.V.A. Computers

The T.O.V.A. database may contain private or personal Protected Health Information (PHI). While the T.O.V.A. accommodates the need to protect PHI, the T.O.V.A. application does not secure or encrypt the database itself. Instead, you can secure access to the T.O.V.A. database and backup folders within your OS (Windows or macOS)—just be sure that all authorized users of the T.O.V.A. have full permissions on the computer to the database folder and its subfolders.

We also expect users will follow information security best practices on the host PC, among which are these:

The T.O.V.A. uses SSL to secure any communication with our servers that might contain personal information, and no PHI is collected without your consent. Any information on our servers is securely maintained.
