UiPath, an enterprise automation software firm, announced that UiPath Orchestrator, UiPath Insights, UiPath Automation Hub, and their supporting services in the UiPath Automation Cloud™ Platform have earned certified status by HITRUST for information security.
What is the purpose of the certification?
HITRUST Risk-based, 2-year (r2) Certified status shows that UiPath has met demanding regulatory compliance and industry-defined requirements and is appropriately managing risk. This places UiPath in an exclusive group of firms worldwide that have earned this certification.
By including federal and state regulations, standards, and frameworks, and incorporating a risk-based approach, the HITRUST Assurance Program helps firms to address security and data protection issues through a framework of prescriptive and scalable security controls.
What does this mean for UiPath?
“This HITRUST certification comes after the most rigorous security assessment available in the healthcare technology space. Our esteemed customers, which include some of the largest healthcare organisations and hospitals, trust us with their most sensitive data,” commented Ari Companioni, Director of Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) at UiPath.
“We have a tremendous responsibility to protect that data and we’ve always held privacy and security as one of our most critical mandates. This certification reinforces that commitment.”
This is a strong addition to other security compliance initiatives achieved by UiPath, such as ISO 27001/17/18 and 9001 certifications, SOC® 2 Type 2, and HIPAA Type 2 attestation.
