Achieving a [HITRUST](https://www.cleardata.com/healthcare-cloud-compliance/) certification on your own takes time and careful planning in order to show proof of the hundreds of controls that might need to be put in place. As a HITRUST certified organization, [ClearDATA](https://www.cleardata.com/) can help you accelerate your certification process through our [HITRUST Inheritance](https://www.cleardata.com/hitrust-inheritance/) Program, which allows you to inherit certain controls based upon your work with us as a customer.

ClearDATA [customers](https://www.cleardata.com/cloud-case-studies/) leveraging the ClearDATA cloud [platform](https://www.cleardata.com/cleardata-cyber-health-platform/) are eligible to participate in the HITRUST [Inheritance](https://www.cleardata.com/blog/hitrust-compliance/) program. This program enables ClearDATA to make their relevant assessment scores available for inheritance into any organization’s assessment. Through our HITRUST Inheritance program, customers have been able to inherit up to 45% of the controls directly from ClearDATA.
