By including federal and state regulations, standards and frameworks, and incorporating a risk-based approach, HITRUST helps organisations address these challenges through a comprehensive and flexible framework of prescriptive and scalable security controls.
The required controls for certification in the HITRUST CSF reflect the controls needed to mitigate the most common sources of breaches for the industry. An organisation must achieve a level of 3+ for each assessment domain (control area) to qualify for certification.
