The pressure on police IT
Systems that cannot go down
Dispatch, records management and mobile data terminals have to work at 3 a.m., not just during business hours.
CJIS audits are getting stricter
Advanced authentication, encryption and audit logging all need evidence, and the last audit raised findings.
Shared IT with the city
City IT covers the department part time, and nobody owns CJIS-specific controls.
What CJIS-ready managed IT includes
Advanced authentication (MFA)
Multi-factor sign-in for every account that touches criminal justice information.
Encryption and network separation
Data encrypted in transit and at rest, and CJI systems separated from the general network.
Managed detection and response
Around-the-clock monitoring for attacks, with containment when something is detected.
Personnel controls
Only approved staff access CJI, completing your agency's background-check and security-awareness requirements.
Audit logging and evidence
Logs kept and reviewed, with the documentation your CJIS Systems Agency asks for.
Mobile and in-car devices
Laptops and MDTs patched, encrypted and monitored like every other device.
