Security as a Feature: Trust, Protection, and Innovation at 1upHealth

At 1upHealth, trust is the cornerstone of our 1up Platform. Our customers – payers, providers, digital health app developers, and life sciences organizations – depend on us to enable seamless interoperability, but that only works if they can trust that their data is secure, private, and protected at every level. Security isn’t just something we do to check a compliance box; it’s foundational to how we build, operate, and innovate.

For us, security is not a cost center – it’s a differentiator. It’s what allows us to go beyond regulatory requirements and create a secure, scalable, and reliable platform that gives our customers confidence in every data exchange, every API call, and every insight generated.

How We Build Trust Through Security

We know that trust isn’t given – it’s earned. That’s why we take a proactive, defense-in-depth approach to security, ensuring that every part of our platform, infrastructure, and knowledge base is secure by design. We follow two of the most stringent security frameworks in the industry:

• HITRUST CSF provides a structured and certifiable security framework that integrates multiple regulatory requirements, allowing us to meet the highest standards while simplifying compliance for our customers.
• NIST 800-53 Rev 5 Moderate sets a federal-grade security benchmark, helping us build resilient defenses that protect against evolving cyber threats.

But compliance alone isn’t enough. We don’t just aim to meet the standards, we strive to exceed them. That means continuously refining our security posture, adopting best practices from across industries, and actively engaging with our customers to ensure they not only feel secure but know they are secure.

Beyond Compliance: A Secure and Interoperable Future

Our vision at 1upHealth is to move the healthcare industry toward a modern, cloud-native, API-driven, and standards-based infrastructure. We enable payers, providers, digital health app developers, and life sciences organizations to work with robust, computable clinical and claims datasets, driving insights and better patient outcomes.

But none of this is possible without security and trust. Our FHIR-based APIs are built with enterprise-grade security controls, ensuring that healthcare data flows safely while remaining accessible to those who need it.

Security isn’t just about protecting data, it’s about creating an environment where innovation can thrive. When our customers trust the security of our platform, they can focus on what they do best: delivering better care; driving analytics; and improving health outcomes.

A Continuous Commitment to Security and Trust

Cyber threats evolve, and so do we. Security isn’t a one-time effort. It’s a continuous commitment to monitoring, learning, and improving. We invest in people, processes, and technology to stay ahead of emerging threats, ensuring that our customers can always rely on us as a trusted partner in their interoperability journey.

At 1upHealth, security is the foundation of everything we do. By embedding security deeply into our platform and beyond, we’re not just meeting expectations, we’re setting a new standard for trust in healthcare technology.
