GRC FOR HITRUST ASSESSMENTS
HITRUST readiness, without the spreadsheet chase.
araseca is a self-hosted GRC tool for running HITRUST assessments. Everyone can see what's done, who owns what and what's late, without a status meeting to find out.
WHAT IT FIXES
Four things that make assessments painful.
-
Nobody can see progress.
A live dashboard shows readiness, progress by domain, and what's overdue or unassigned. A PM board replaces the control-by-control status meeting.
-
Nobody's sure who owns what.
Every control has named assignees. Due-date nudges escalate from heads-up to overdue and copy the manager. Controls with no owner escalate to the PM.
-
Evidence gets uploaded and no one notices.
Uploads notify the reviewer and PM right away. Every file keeps its version history, and sending one back requires a note.
-
Populations and samples live in email.
Check population dates, import the auditor's sample file, and get one sub-task per sampled item, right on the control.
WHAT'S INSIDE
Built around what assessors look for.
-
Evidence pre-flight.
Flags common rejection reasons at upload: screenshots outside fieldwork, stale third-party reports, unreviewed policies and evidence that doesn't name its system.
-
Plain-English guides.
Each requirement gets a guide your PM can edit, plus a glossary. Optional AI explains controls and gives evidence an advisory first read.
-
Evidence reuse.
Link one file to many controls, with a separate review for each.
-
System coverage.
A matrix shows which in-scope systems have evidence for each control.
-
Scoring and reports.
Maturity scores, CAP and gap calculations, a readiness report with trend, and CSV exports.
-
Access and audit trail.
Role-based access, permission-checked downloads and a searchable audit log.
GOOD TO KNOW
- Scores are self-assessed estimates, and MyCSF stays authoritative. Measured and Managed levels are marked provisional for now.
- No HITRUST content ships with araseca. You import your own licensed catalog.
- araseca is independent, and isn't affiliated with or endorsed by HITRUST.
