We built Signal free because awareness should not have a paywall.
Independent healthcare providers are the fastest-growing target for cyberattacks — but they are the least likely to have a dedicated security team. Most breach intelligence is locked behind enterprise subscriptions that cost more than a small practice's entire IT budget.
Signal is permanently free. Every tool is fully functional, with no feature gates that unlock after 14 days and no account creation required.
If Signal is all you ever use, you will still be better informed than most practices running paid compliance software. If you decide your practice needs the full operating system — active breach prevention, autonomous compliance, vendor risk, audit trails — Patient Protect is there. But Signal stands on its own.

FAQ
Common questions about Signal.
Is Signal really free?
Yes. No trial period, no feature gates, no credit card required. Signal is a standalone free app — not a limited version of the platform.
Do I need a Patient Protect account to use Signal?
No. Signal works independently. You can download it and start using breach intelligence, compliance scoring, and risk assessment tools without creating any account.
What data does Signal collect?
Signal does not collect personal health information. Analytics are limited to standard app usage metrics. No login means no personal data stored on our servers.
Is Signal available on Android?
Not yet. Signal is currently iOS only. Android availability is planned but not yet scheduled.
How is Signal different from Patient Protect?
Signal gives you intelligence and assessment tools. Patient Protect gives you an operating system — autonomous compliance engine, vendor risk management, workforce training, secure messaging, and audit-ready evidence generation. Signal helps you see the risk. Patient Protect helps you close it.
