HITRUST Domain 01: Information Protection Program Policy Template

The Information Protection Program policy is the anchor document of a HITRUST program. It establishes executive sponsorship, governance structure, and the policy review cadence everything else in the toolkit points back to. It's usually the first document an assessor asks for and the last one they'll accept a placeholder for.

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 policy is built around: every one of its 52 control requirement statements carries a [BUID Reference] marker traceable to a specific HITRUST requirement, plus a HITRUST ↔ HIPAA ↔ NIST ↔ ISO 27001 crosswalk. Those are the two things that actually save time in front of an assessor.

What this policy covers

The Information Protection Program policy is the anchor document of a HITRUST program.

Who it's for

Organizations that need a formally governed, executive-sponsored security program on paper: not just controls, but the governance structure that shows those controls are actually overseen.
