HITRUST Risk-Based, 2-year (r2) Certification validates Lightbeam’s commitment to enhanced cybersecurity best practices and protecting healthcare organizations’ sensitive data

DALLAS–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#complianceLightbeam Health Solutions, the leader in population health enablement technology and services, today announced its population health management platform has successfully renewed its certified status by HITRUST for information security.


Earning HITRUST’s risk-based, 2-year (r2) certification demonstrates that Lightbeam’s population health management platform has met the demanding regulatory compliance and industry-defined requirements necessary to serve providers and payers in this space. This certified status also signifies Lightbeam’s ability to effectively manage and mitigate security risk. By including federal and state regulations, standards, and frameworks and incorporating a risk-based approach, the HITRUST Assurance Program helps organizations address security and data protection challenges through a comprehensive and flexible framework of prescriptive and scalable security controls.

“With outside threats and bad actors getting smarter by the day, organizations like Lightbeam are compelled to anticipate these threats before they occur and act with precision and urgency,” said Russ Smith, Vice President, Infrastructure and Security at Lightbeam Health Solutions. “Successfully renewing our HITRUST r2 certification places Lightbeam Health Solutions in an elite group of organizations worldwide that meet the rigorous security standards held by HITRUST. We are pleased to demonstrate to our customers the highest standards for data protection and information security by achieving this certification.”

“Without consistency, transparency, and reliability, an information security assessment can’t provide the requisite level of assurances needed to make important business decisions. That’s why we focus on producing the highest quality reports available,” said Vincent Bennekers, Vice President, Quality at HITRUST. “Achievement of a HITRUST r2 Certification is an assurance that Lightbeam takes compliance and information risk management seriously.”

Maintaining compliance with HITRUST’s industry-standard security requirements represents Lightbeam’s commitment to ensuring the highest degree of security and data protection for our client-partners.
