Verato Achieves HITRUST r2 Recertification, Elevating Data Security Standards

Verato®, recognized as a leader in identity intelligence, has announced its attainment of the HITRUST Risk-based, r2 recertification for its master data management (MDM) platform and associated products. Since first earning this prestigious certification in 2017, Verato has consistently demonstrated its commitment to maintaining stringent data security measures across its operations.

The HITRUST r2 Certification is a testament to Verato's compliance with rigorous regulatory standards and industry-specific requirements, proving its ability to manage risks effectively. This notable accomplishment positions Verato amongst a select group of organizations globally that have achieved this certification. The HITRUST Assurance Program not only incorporates federal and state regulations but also embodies a risk-managed approach that equips organizations with a robust framework for addressing security and data protection dilemmas.

Whereas many organizations might earn a basic HITRUST e1 certification, which signifies fundamental security controls suitable for less complex environments, Verato’s r2 certification represents the zenith of data security validation. This distinction highlights the superior level of assurance and protection that customers can expect from Verato's offerings.

Vincent Bennekers, Vice President of Quality at HITRUST, stated, “An effective information security assessment hinges on consistency, transparency, and reliability. Without these, businesses cannot make informed decisions regarding risks. Therefore, we strive to produce the highest quality reports, and the achievement of a HITRUST r2 Certification underscores Verato's serious approach to compliance and information risk management.”

The platforms that secured the HITRUST r2 Certification include Verato MDM Cloud™, MDM Cloud API and Web UI, Verato Carbon®, Match Web/Batch Service, Auto Steward™, Verato Connect™, Verato Enrich®, and Verato Insights™. These tools are critical for organizations dealing with sensitive data, especially within healthcare and financial services sectors.

Clay Ritchey, CEO of Verato, commented, “The HITRUST recertification reaffirms our dedication to maintaining top-tier standards for data protection, compliance, and risk management. With the sensitive nature of the data we handle, our customers deserve nothing less. While many firms are beginning their journey toward security compliance, Verato has established itself as a leader in data security for nearly a decade. This result ensures our clients receive a validated and reliable method for managing sensitive information within tightly regulated industries.”

In today's digital age, where cyber threats are more prevalent and sophisticated than ever before, it is of paramount importance for organizations to partner with firms that adhere to the highest levels of data security. Verato's MDM Platform™ epitomizes this commitment through its combination of precise identity resolution, data enrichment, advanced insights, identity verification, and AI-powered data governance. This integrated approach offers organizations a comprehensive and trustworthy 360-degree perspective of individuals, networks, and institutions.
