HITRUST CSF Validated Security Assessment

What is the HITRUST CSF?

Have you received a letter from a top client indicating that you must become HITRUST CSF certified? Are you looking for a security and privacy framework that leverages other existing security requirements? The HITRUST CSF is a certifiable framework that provides organizations with a comprehensive, flexible, and efficient approach to regulatory compliance and risk management. HITRUST was founded in 2007 and is a not-for-profit organization, created with the belief that information security should support, not impede, information systems and exchanges. The HITRUST CSF was built on the primary principles of ISO 27001/27002 and has evolved to align with a growing number of standards, regulations, and business requirements, including HIPAA, PCI DSS, NIST 800-53/800-171, GDPR, FTC Red Flags Rule, several state requirements, and more.

How Can a HITRUST Assessment Benefit Your Organization?

HITRUST CSF certification demonstrates a high level of due diligence that you are doing everything you possibly can to protect the data for which you are responsible. If you’re managing sensitive data, it’s critical to protect yourself from risk in order to maintain a strong relationship with your clients who are also trying to mitigate their risks.

Because the HITRUST CSF incorporates elements of other frameworks, it aligns itself nicely with the frameworks that your clients are likely asking you about. Since there is a lot of crossover, this can increase efficiency and decrease costs for your organization. The HITRUST CSF is certifiable and attractive to covered entities because they know its a great way to measure, mitigate, and control risks.

There are a few different types of HITRUST CSF assessment types, including:

CSF Security Assessment
CSF Security and Privacy Assessment
CSF Comprehensive Security Assessment
CSF Comprehensive Security and Privacy Assessment
NIST Cybersecurity Assessment

There are also several options for demonstrating compliance:

SOC 2
SOC 2 + HITRUST CSF Certification
