Why not just use a free generic template? Free HITRUST templates are a reasonable starting shape, and we point people to good ones on our Free Resources page. What they don't have is what this toolkit is built around: every control requirement carries a [BUID Reference] marker traceable to a specific HITRUST requirement statement, plus a HITRUST ↔ HIPAA ↔ NIST ↔ ISO 27001 crosswalk: the two things that actually save time in front of an assessor.

Who it's for

Early-stage and growing healthcare SaaS companies (typically under $50M in revenue) who need to demonstrate foundational cybersecurity hygiene quickly, often to satisfy a customer, partner, or BAA requirement, without building a governance program from a blank page or an enterprise consultancy budget.

What it does

The e1 Governance Accelerator covers the six governance-foundation HITRUST CSF domains: 01 (Information Protection Program), 13 (Education, Training & Awareness), 14 (Third-Party Assurance), 15 (Incident Management), 17 (Risk Management), and 19 (Data Protection & Privacy). These are the policies that establish the why, who, and what of a HITRUST program. Technical domains (endpoints, access control, network, encryption) are covered starting at the i1 tier. Every control requirement is tagged with a [BUID Reference] marker for traceability to your assessment (confirm the specific control citation with your assessor via MyCSF).

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this a substitute for hiring an assessor?

No. This toolkit prepares your organization's documentation and evidence so your internal team (or an outside assessor) spends far less time building from scratch. You'll still need a HITRUST-authorized external assessor to complete formal certification.

How do I customize the documents?

Every document uses consistent [COMPANY NAME] and role placeholders. The Implementation Guide walks through what to customize and in what order.

Which HITRUST domains does e1 cover?

Six governance-foundation domains: 01 (Information Protection Program), 13 (Education, Training & Awareness), 14 (Third-Party Assurance), 15 (Incident Management), 17 (Risk Management), and 19 (Data Protection & Privacy). e1's official assessment scope is broader than these six domains, but this is the governance documentation layer the toolkit provides. The i1 tier adds the 11 technical domains most e1 organizations also need.

What if I outgrow the e1 tier?

The i1 Accelerator builds directly on these same six governance domains and adds the 11 technical domains, and r2 extends further to all 19, so moving up tiers is an extension of your existing documentation, not a rebuild.

What's covered by the license?

Each purchase includes a signed License Agreement (PDF) granting your organization a non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use, customize, and internally distribute the toolkit for your own HITRUST program. See the full License Agreement for details.
