Performing Validation
During this phase, we validate your self-assessment scores against the evidence your team has collected and submitted in MyCSF. Because we've already established clear expectations during the pre-assessment, evidence submission proceeds systematically without redundant requests.You can expect:
Regular updates on testing progress and completion status within MyCSF
Open communication channels so you can ask questions as they arise
Clear identification of scoring shortfalls, so you understand which requirement statements may require corrective action plans (CAPs)
Guidance on documenting effective CAPs for any gaps, positioning you for successful remediation ahead of your interim assessment
We maintain transparency throughout this phase so you're never left wondering about assessment status.
Submission and What Comes Next
After completing validation, we prepare your assessment in MyCSF for submission to HITRUST.
Final steps include:
Pre-submission QA review to confirm documentation supports validated scores
Support for developing corrective action plans (CAPs) for any requirement statements scoring below certification thresholds
Active participation alongside your team throughout HITRUST's Quality Assurance review process
Ongoing engagement through draft report review until your Certified Report and Certification Letter are posted
While HITRUST issues the final certification, we remain your partner through completion.
