The complete HITRUST i1 experience

HITRUST i1 requires more than documentation. It requires evidence that your security controls are operating effectively. Thoropass brings readiness, automation, and assessment together in one connected experience. Your HITRUST Accredited Assessor works alongside your team from scoping through validation, while the AI-powered Audit Lifecycle Platform keeps scope, evidence, requests, reviews, issues, and milestones connected in one place.

Talk to a HITRUST expert

Prove your controls, not just document them.

HITRUST i1 validates the effectiveness of your cybersecurity program through implemented controls and testing, not just policy documentation. Thoropass automates evidence collection from the systems you already use and organizes it into auditor-ready submissions, making it easier to demonstrate that your controls are working as intended.

Meet your assessor before the audit.

Your assessor is involved from the beginning, helping define scope, answer questions, review evidence, and keep your assessment moving. With one dedicated team throughout the engagement, you avoid unnecessary handoffs, reduce surprises, and stay aligned from readiness through certification.

Frequently asked questions

What is HITRUST i1?

HITRUST i1 is a 1-year validated assessment focused on a broader set of implemented security controls. It is designed to provide stronger assurance than e1 while remaining more standardized and focused than r2.

Who is HITRUST i1 for?

HITRUST i1 can be a good fit for organizations with established security practices that need to demonstrate stronger assurance to customers, partners, or third-party risk teams.

How is HITRUST i1 different from e1 and r2?
