How Companies Achieved HITRUST Certification
Real examples of successful HITRUST implementations in healthcare technology
Clay needed to scale security and compliance without slowing down their explosive growth trajectory—moving from $500M to $3.1B valuation in just over a year. Workstreet's expert-led security services on the Vanta platform enabled Clay to achieve SOC 2 readiness in record time while keeping their product and sales teams focused on growth.
Stride Health, a leading cloud-based healthcare software company, partnered with Workstreet to transform their security and compliance program from a resource-intensive burden into a strategic business advantage. Over two years, Workstreet delivered exceptional results: 90% reduction in audit findings, 95% reduction in internal team time commitment, and zero findings in the latest penetration test—all while maintaining full HIPAA and NIST 800-53 compliance.
Accelerated HITRUST FAQs
Common questions about HITRUST Certification
HITRUST (Health Information Trust Alliance) is a comprehensive security framework specifically designed for healthcare and other industries handling sensitive data. It's considered the gold standard because it combines requirements from multiple frameworks (HIPAA, NIST, ISO 27001, PCI DSS) into one unified standard. HITRUST certification demonstrates the highest level of security maturity and is widely recognized by healthcare organizations, business associates, and regulators as proof of robust data protection capabilities.
HITRUST certification typically takes 6-12 months depending on your current security maturity and chosen certification level. There are two main options: HITRUST e1 (essential one-year certification, faster and less complex) and HITRUST r2 (rigorous two-year certification, more comprehensive) that we recommend. Most healthcare technology companies start with e1 and can later upgrade to r2. The process includes gap assessment, remediation, documentation, and a formal assessment by a HITRUST assessor.

HITRUST assessments are more rigorous and healthcare-specific than typical security audits. They use the HITRUST Common Security Framework (CSF) which includes over 150 control objectives tailored to healthcare data protection. The assessment is conducted by HITRUST-authorized assessors and results in a formal certification recognized industry-wide. Unlike SOC 2 which focuses on general controls, HITRUST specifically addresses healthcare data protection requirements and provides a standardized scoring methodology.
