HITRUST’s risk-based approach includes incorporating regulatory factors relevant to an organization’s geographic and operational footprint:

Texas Health and Safety Code → Applicable since the hospital operates in Texas.

Massachusetts Data Protection Act → Applicable since the hospital operates in Massachusetts.

PCI-DSS → Required because the hospital processes credit card data.

Singapore Personal Data Act → Not applicable (hospital does not operate in Singapore).

Nevada Security of Personal Information Requirements → Not applicable (no presence in Nevada).

Extract Reference (HITRUST CSF Scoping & Tailoring Guidance [0013]):

Regulatory factors are selected based on where the organization operates and the type of data processed. For organizations in Texas and Massachusetts handling credit card data, applicable factors include Texas Health and Safety Code, Massachusetts Data Protection Act, and PCI-DSS.
