A HITRUST Case Study
Snowflake, a data cloud platform, faced the challenge of rapidly meeting stringent security and compliance requirements demanded by its customers, particularly in the healthcare sector. To streamline this process and demonstrate a strong security posture, Snowflake partnered with vendor HITRUST to leverage its framework and services.
Using the HITRUST Framework (HITRUST CSF) and the MyCSF tool, Snowflake was able to inherit security controls from its cloud provider, AWS, and efficiently rationalize multiple regulations into a single framework. The solution implemented by HITRUST enabled Snowflake to achieve its highest level of HITRUST certification in just six weeks, a process that otherwise might have taken 12-18 months. This dramatically reduced the burden of security audits and questionnaires, allowing Snowflake to onboard customers faster and focus on innovation.
