HITRUST-1

  • Focuses on identifying security control gaps and provides remediation guidance.
3. HITRUST Validated Assessment
  • An extensive evaluation conducted by certified assessors.

4. Essential (e1) , Intermediate (i1), and Risk-Based Assessments (r2)
  • Essential (e1): Ideal for startups and companies with low-risk profiles or less complexity, establishing foundational cybersecurity. Allows for an entry-level validated assessment based on 44 foundational security controls. Organizations can build on these controls as a step toward attaining the more comprehensive i! or r2 certifications.

  • Intermediate (i1): A good fit for organizations with robust information security programs in place that are ready to demonstrate leading security practices. Often suitable for mid-level organizations, offering a more comprehensive level of assurance than the e1, with more controls in scope. Work done to attain an active i1 certification can be applied toward attaining an r2.

  • Risk Based (r1): Best suited for organizations that need to demonstrate regulatory compliance with authoritative sources like HIPAA, the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, and dozens of others or require expanded control tailoring based on other identified risk factors.
