LightEdge — a leading provider of colocation, cloud and managed service solutions — and NFINIT, a LightEdge company, are expanding their footprint in the healthcare and biotech sectors, through participation in the HITRUST Inheritance Program. 

LightEdge is now working with Allegiance Group and  Borrego Health, in addition to many other healthcare and biotech companies. The company  is also one of approximately 30 organizations globally, and one of very few MSPs that are part of the program, which allows customers to inherit relevant controls for their own HITRUST compliance standards. 

“HITRUST CSF is the gold standard for healthcare applications,” said Robert McCabe, CIO for Allegiance Group. “In the face of mounting data breaches, companies handling sensitive data must remove all doubt by working with trusted providers like LightEdge that offer strong experience in security protocols and regulatory compliance.”

Allegiance Group is one of many healthcare clients leveraging LightEdge’s proven expertise in compliance-driven cloud solutions. In fact, more than 20% of LightEdge clients (over 150 customers) are in the healthcare or healthcare services industries. Another longtime colocation client of NFINIT, Borrego Health, has been steadily moving applications to the cloud with LightEdge now managing the migration coupled with providing Storage-as-a-Service (STaaS) and Disaster Recovery-as-a-Service (DRaaS). 

“Our consultative, white glove approach is ideal for healthcare and biotech enterprises navigating especially difficult IT requirements and concerns right now,” said Michael Hannan, Chief Security Officer for LightEdge. “Our expertise and proven ability to build and manage environments that enable our clients to meet HIPAA, HITRUST, and other compliance standards set us apart as a leader.”
