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 is a comprehensive security framework designed for healthcare and other sensitive data industries. It's the gold standard because it unifies multiple frameworks (HIPAA, NIST, ISO 27001, PCI DSS) into one cohesive standard. HITRUST certification demonstrates the highest security maturity level and is widely recognized by healthcare organizations and regulators as proof of robust data protection.
HITRUST certification typically takes 6-12 months depending on your security maturity and chosen certification level. Two main options exist: HITRUST e1 (essential one-year certification, faster and less complex) and HITRUST r2 (rigorous two-year certification, more comprehensive). Most healthcare technology companies start with e1 and later upgrade to r2. The process includes gap assessment, remediation, documentation, and formal assessment.
HITRUST assessments are more rigorous and healthcare-specific than typical security audits. They use the HITRUST CSF with over 150 control objectives tailored to healthcare data protection. Assessments are conducted by authorized assessors and result in formal, industry-recognized certification. Unlike SOC 2, HITRUST specifically addresses healthcare requirements and provides standardized scoring methodology.
