Value Proposition: Why Choose AdVran for CJIS?

CJIS Security Policy applies to every organization—public or private—that accesses FBI CJIS systems or data. The requirements are non-negotiable: background checks, encryption, advanced authentication, and auditing.

1. Personnel Security

Every AdVran employee with access to CJIS environments undergoes state and national fingerprint-based background checks. We maintain documentation of personnel security status and clearance renewals.

2. Advanced Authentication

CJIS requires advanced authentication (multi-factor) for access to CJI. We deploy and manage MFA across all access points—local, remote, and mobile—with centralized policy enforcement.

3. Encryption Standards

We implement FIPS 140-2 validated encryption for CJI at rest and in transit. Key management follows CJIS requirements with documented procedures and access controls.

4. Audit and Accountability

Our monitoring provides the detailed audit logging CJIS requires—recording who accessed what data, when, and from where. Logs are tamper-resistant and retained per CJIS policy.

5. CJIS Audit Readiness

We maintain documentation aligned to the CJIS Security Policy’s 13 policy areas, providing evidence packages for state CJIS Systems Agency (CSA) audits with minimal disruption to your operations.
