Deft Research Becomes HITRUST Certified for Better Data Protection

Enhancing Data Security With HITRUST Certification

At Deft Research, we understand that becoming the leading market research firm in health insurance requires a serious commitment to cybersecurity risk management. We support the strategic decision-making of many of the industry’s biggest players, making data privacy and security critical not only to our clients’ success but to the industry as a whole.

To further ensure our clients are protected when partnering with us, we recently obtained HITRUST certification, one of the industry’s most trusted standards for proving cybersecurity risk management and compliance.

What Is HITRUST Certification?

HITRUST is considered the industry benchmark for assurance standards, providing a comprehensive approach to managing information risk, staying compliant and maintaining the highest level of data security. According to HITRUST, 99.4% of its certified environments have reported no breaches over the past two years.

What Certification Means for Your Business

HITRUST certification provides your organization with an objective, gold-standard assurance that our data management practices meet the highest standards in information protection. When you partner with Deft Research, you can rest assured that we secure all your sensitive information at the highest level while also meeting industry compliance standards for effective risk mitigation.

By choosing Deft Research, you are not only partnering with a leader in health insurance market research but also ensuring that your data is handled with the utmost care and security. This certification underscores our commitment to excellence and our dedication to providing the best possible service to our clients.

Ensuring Members’ PHI/PII Stays Secure

Our HITRUST certification shows we can handle PHI/PII with the same degree of care that is exercised by your organization. By allowing us to securely handle your sensitive health data, we can also unlock more complex research opportunities for your business, including:

  • Own-member research, including utilization and segmentation
  • Advanced claims and provider network analysis
  • Quality measure analytics, including HEDIS and CAHPS
  • Secure integration of survey data with claims or EHR data
  • Member outcome studies using PHI

With HITRUST, we’re ready to help you explore deeper insights — securely, confidently and compliantly.
