How Keep IT Simple and CEO Thomas Aaron Kane Are Using DOJ & FBI Guidance to Shield Healthcare Practices from Cybercrime

In today’s fast-moving digital landscape, healthcare professionals face more than just data breaches—they face real legal, financial, and operational risks. From HIPAA violations and ransomware to fraud and even criminal indictments, the stakes for healthcare providers have never been higher. That’s where Thomas Aaron Kane and the team at Keep IT Simple are making a meaningful difference.

 With a renewed commitment to integrity, transparency, and forward-thinking IT strategy, Keep IT Simple is aligning its services with trusted federal cybersecurity frameworks—including guidance from the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and the FBI. The goal: to protect healthcare practices not just from cyber threats, but from the cascading consequences that follow them.

Cybercrime: A Rising Threat in Healthcare

Cyberattacks against healthcare providers are increasing rapidly. These aren’t just minor IT problems—they can bring entire practices to a halt, expose sensitive patient data, and create devastating legal and financial repercussions.

According to the DOJ’s Strategic Plan Objective 2.4, the federal government has made it a top priority to “enhance cybersecurity and fight cybercrime.” This initiative emphasizes stronger public-private collaboration, improved response times, and more aggressive prosecution of those who target vulnerable sectors like healthcare.

Keep IT Simple is embracing this mission—actively working alongside healthcare providers to keep them protected, compliant, and operational.

Federal Guidance in Action: What Keep IT Simple Is Doing RightThomas Aaron Kane and his employees at Keep IT Simple have integrated best practices directly from DOJ and FBI guidance, including:

DOJ Cybercrime Strategy IntegrationThrough detailed risk assessments, 24/7 monitoring, and robust defense systems, Keep IT Simple helps clients identify vulnerabilities and prevent incidents before they occur.

FBI Ransomware Mitigation StandardsKeep IT Simple follows the DOJ’s cyber incident response guidelines by implementing advanced backup systems, segmenting critical data, and ensuring rapid recovery protocols are in place—minimizing disruption if an attack occurs.

Patient Privacy & Civil Liberties ComplianceWith a strong emphasis on ethical data handling and transparency, Keep IT Simple designs custom security plans that protect patient rights while meeting both HIPAA and DOJ-recommended standards.

Beyond Compliance: Preventing Legal FalloutNeglecting cybersecurity isn’t just a technical risk—it’s a legal one. Practices that fail to implement sufficient protections may face regulatory scrutiny, lawsuits, or even federal investigations.

That’s why Thomas Aaron Kane has repositioned Keep IT Simple as more than just a managed service provider. It's now a strategic partner in legal and operational risk management.

From staff training and phishing simulations to proactive compliance audits and regulation updates, the company ensures that healthcare providers aren’t just meeting minimum standards—they’re exceeding them, with confidence and clarity.

A New Standard in Healthcare IT SecurityWhile many IT companies offer “one-size-fits-all” solutions, Keep IT Simple has taken a more meaningful route—aligning directly with what the DOJ and FBI recommend for national cybersecurity resilience: proactive defense, continuous education, and a willingness to collaborate with law enforcement when needed.

For clients, this means:

• Enhanced protection against cyberattacks

• Reduced legal and financial exposure

• Peace of mind knowing their technology strategy is aligned with federal standards
