SBARAlerts is designed as a role-scoped healthcare communication platform with protected clinical documents, facility authorization, physician review, and audit-ready workflows.
1Application Architecture
The application uses authenticated PHP workflows, database-backed authorization, protected document handling, facility scoping, physician review, and activity records.
2Identity and Access
Recommended controls include individual accounts, secure password hashing, password-reset tokens, session regeneration, inactivity timeout, login throttling, role checks, and prompt deactivation of former users.
3Encryption and Secrets
Production access should be restricted to HTTPS using modern TLS. Credentials, API keys, and database secrets should be stored outside the public web root or in protected environment configuration.
4Logging and Monitoring
Security-relevant events should be logged, including login attempts, clinical record access, document review, physician responses, administrative changes, and suspected misuse.
5Backups and Continuity
Backups should be access-controlled, encrypted where appropriate, tested, and retained according to documented recovery and retention requirements.
