Beyond Compliance.
True Security.

HIPAA violations don't just fine companies — they name executives.

We combine legal clarity with technical implementation so you never appear in an OCR settlement document. Run your assessment, find your gaps, and fix them before a regulator does.

THE PERSONAL RISKS YOU'RE CARRYING

Three Threats That Put Your Name on the Line

47%

Personal Claim Denials

Cyber insurers retroactively deny claims when executives can't demonstrate active compliance oversight. A breach without your documented involvement in the security program isn't just an organizational loss — it's an uninsured personal liability exposure.

90 days

Attestation Deadlines

Your EHR vendor, clearinghouse, and cloud providers require security attestations you personally must sign. Missing their deadlines doesn't just mean service disruption — it means your signature is absent from documents that regulators expect to find.

Named in Enforcement

OCR enforcement actions have tripled since 2022 and now algorithmically target organizations under 500 employees. When OCR investigates, they look for evidence that leadership was personally engaged in compliance. Absence of that evidence makes executives individually liable.

FROM THE FOUNDER

"I spent years watching organizations treat compliance as a checkbox exercise — then scramble when a breach put real names on real enforcement actions. The gap between legal exposure and technical reality is where damage happens."

Axiom Risk Group exists to close that gap. We bring legal clarity and hands-on technical implementation into one program, so your compliance work actually reduces your risk — not just your anxiety.

Cyril
Founder & CEO, Axiom Risk Group
PLATFORM

What the Platform Does

From your first assessment to ongoing remediation, these are the tools that keep your compliance program moving forward.

Guided Questionnaires

Work through HIPAA and HITRUST requirements one section at a time, with guidance written by people who do this for a living.

Automated Gap Analysis

See exactly where your gaps are and what to fix first. No guesswork.

Remediation Tracking

Assign owners, set deadlines, and see where things stand at a glance.

Per-Control Notes

Add notes and context to each control so everyone on the team knows why a decision was made.

PDF & CSV Reports

Pull a polished PDF for your board or a CSV for your spreadsheet whenever you need one.

Quarterly Reviews

Guided plan subscribers get a quarterly review showing what improved, what slipped, and what to focus on next.

01

Choose Your Framework

Pick HIPAA Security Rule, HITRUST CSF, or vendor risk. The platform sets up your assessment from there.

03

Get Your Results

See your score, find the gaps, and get a clear list of what to fix first.
