CCSFP Exam Dumps - HITRUST CSF Practitioner Questions and Answers

When an assessor submits a validated assessment object to HITRUST, the QA intake process begins. HITRUST typically takes 3–5 business days to complete an initial review and decide whether to accept the submission into the QA pipeline or reject it due to deficiencies (such as missing evidence, incomplete CAPs, or improper scoping). Acceptance at this stage does not mean certification—it simply indicates that the assessment meets the minimum requirements to enter QA. If rejected, the assessor must correct the issues before resubmission. The 3–5 day timeframe ensures efficiency while maintaining rigor in intake quality checks.

For r2 Validated Assessments, certification requires meeting HITRUST’s minimum scoring thresholds across all applicable areas (commonly ≥62.5%). If any domain (or required control reference/requirement) falls below the threshold (e.g., <61 or <62.5 as applicable), the assessment cannot be certified and will be issued as a Validated Report without Certification.

“If any required scoring area is below the minimum threshold, the outcome is a Validated Report without Certification until deficiencies are remediated.” [HITRUST CSF Assurance Program – Certification Criteria, 0142]
