“Everything about the certification process was seamless, from preparation through the actual assessment. We’re looking forward to a continued partnership with RSI Security.”

Challenges
Lumistry (previously known as Digital Pharmacist) is one of the leading platforms empowering pharmacies to create an online presence for patient engagement. Lumistry is a two-time Inc. 5000 list member—most recently in 2022 on the strength of 100% IVR refill and 40% account growth.
Today, Lumistry serves over 7,000 pharmacies worldwide.
A key part of serving these pharmacies is ensuring that sensitive information concerning their clientele and personnel is protected. And, adding to the stakes, Digital Pharmacist was acquired by Lumistry in 2022 alongside three other major players in the telehealth industry (Vow Inc., CAREANIMATIONS, and VUCA Health Unite). In practice, this joining of forces multiplies the benefits for all clientele impacted—but it also means an even greater pool of sensitive data is potentially at risk across Digital Pharmacist’s and its partners’ shared ecosystems.
Lumistry faced these challenges head-on with a robust HITRUST CSF assessment, certifying its cyberdefenses with the highest level of security assurance for all stakeholders.
Outcome
Working with RSI Security, Lumistry achieved a Validated HITRUST Risk-based 2-Year (r2) Assessment. That means HITRUST CSF Certification for a 2-year period, pending an Interim Assessment after Year 1. It also means Lumistry is either already compliant with, or well positioned to easily assess for, several other regulations. For laws like HIPAA, with no baseline audit, Lumistry is set. For most others, it can “assess once, report many,” which is the goal for comprehensive cybersecurity efforts.
Beyond compliance, Lumistry is now equipped with a robust cyberdefense program that will keep all stakeholders (including others under the broader Lumistry umbrella) safe well into the future. A formalized Lumistry Information Security Program is the icing on the cake, reassuring client pharmacies and their clientele that Lumistry cares about protecting them from cyberthreats.
“I loved working with Arun and the entire RSI team. I hope to continue to do so in the future.”
