IDC Technical Overview

The InfraWare Dictation Client (IDC) is a tool used by authors to upload their recorded files to the InfraWare platform. Authors can also utilize this tool to record their dictations directly into the platform through the use of a microphone.

IDC users can rest assured that the IDC software meets and exceeds HIPAA regulations as they enjoy the security and reliability of a top-tier datacenter for contained, controlled communications. Acess to PHI is password protected and role-based.

Like most InfraWare applications, the IDC is built primarily using Microsoft tools. Specifically, any computer running the IDC locally requires Microsoft .Net Framework or newer and Microsoft SQL Compact 3.5 or newer. Installation of the IDC is managed using Microsoft ClickOnce depoyment technology for installation. During the setup of the IDC, the ClickOnce deployment software will check the local machine to see if the software requirements are met and will attempt to install any missing components before installing the InfraWare Dictation Client (IDC) software.
