2010 Changes to HITRUST Compliance


Fundamental to HITRUST’s mission is the availability of a Common Security Framework (CSF) that provides the needed structure, clarity, functionality and cross-references to authoritative sources.

The initial development of the CSF leveraged nationally and internationally accepted standards including ISO, NIST, PCI, HIPAA, and COBIT to ensure a comprehensive set of baseline security controls. The CSF normalizes these security requirements and provides clarity and consistency, reducing the burden of compliance with these requirements that apply to healthcare organizations.

HITRUST ensures the CSF stays relevant and current to the needs of organizations by regularly updating the CSF to incorporate new standards and regulations as authoritative sources. In accordance with this objective, HITRUST has recently made changes based on industry feedback and analysis of the 2009 CSF.

Here is a summary of the changes to the CSF broken down by Control Specification and Implementation Requirement Level.
