Signing a BAA with Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 is only Step 1. Out-of-the-box settings leave client data, video sessions, and session notes exposed to common email spoofing, unencrypted file sharing, and unauthorized device access.
FlexForward Tech delivers productized, execution-ready HIPAA security hardening designed specifically for solo therapists, LCSWs, and group mental health practices.
State Board & License Exposure: Mandatory reporting to the Dept. of Health after an unmitigated breach can trigger board investigations, formal reprimands, or license suspension.
$15,000 – $50,000+ Out-of-Pocket Fines: Typical legal and regulatory costs following a breach or spoofed email incident.
$10,800+ Over 3 Years: Standard corporate MSP contracts ($300/mo) that lock you into long multi-year agreements for bloatware you don't need.
Denied Cyber Insurance Claims: Caused by misconfigured DMARC, missing hardware encryption, or absent BAA logs during underwriting audits.
40+ Hours of Lost Clinical Time: Spent wrestling with DNS records, MFA settings, and Google Workspace/M365 admin consoles.

Hi! I am Sam! I'm the founder of FlexForward Tech.
I grew up in the PNW and love it here. I am a husband, father and nerd.
I've been working in IT for 7+ years with a particular understanding of cybersecurity requirements facing mental health professionals, legal professionals, and everything in between. I've seen plenty of overlap between industries and recognize a need that solo professionals have that isn't easily met by many of the larger IT outfits that service the industries here. I don't enjoy huge contract engagements, and if you're a solo professional you probably don't need one. But you do need expert security care and the best service from someone who understands industry standards and requirements.
I'd like to help if I can.
When I'm not working, I am generally spending time with my wife and two kids or with both our large families in the NW. Any other spare time, I am probably fishing. Looking forward to working with you!
