Operationalize HITRUST Controls Across Your Data Environment

HITRUST CSF consolidates requirements from HIPAA, NIST, PCI, and other frameworks into a certifiable control framework. Certification requires organizations to demonstrate measurable controls across data protection, access management, risk assessment, and governance.

BigID enables organizations to:

  • Discover protected health information and regulated data across the enterprise
  • Classify high-risk data in alignment with CSF control requirements
  • Monitor data access and exposure risk
  • Enforce retention and remediation policies
  • Maintain audit-ready reporting aligned to HITRUST controls

HITRUST certification demands evidence. BigID delivers visibility at the data layer.
