CJIS Audit

Audit management, digitized.

Thirty-seven states run their technical audits on CJIS Audit. A complete electronic audit platform for state and federal CJIS Systems Agencies — every audit type, every agency response, in one workflow instead of a paper trail.

Audit types

Which audits can you run in CJIS Audit?

CJIS audits, technical audits, non-criminal justice agency audits, and any custom audit your program defines, all in the same platform.

01

CJIS audits

The core compliance audit a CSA runs across the agencies in its state, managed as a workflow with responses collected in the tool rather than by email.

02

Technical audits

The technical side of CJIS compliance, run against the same agency population. Thirty-seven states run their technical audits on CJIS Audit.

03

Non-criminal justice agency audits

Audits of organizations that access criminal justice information without being law enforcement themselves, tracked in the same platform as the rest.

04

Custom audits

Any other audit your program needs to run, built to your own requirements and tracked in the same platform as the rest.

In practice

What changes when audits move off paper?

The collection burden shifts. Agency responses are managed in the platform, the state response is assembled from them, and the exchange stops running through inboxes.

Responses live in the tool

Manage responses from every agency inside the platform rather than across inboxes, so the audit record is one thing rather than many.

Agencies upload their own evidence

With the Audit Docs module, agencies attach evidence directly to the audit, which removes the state from the middle of every exchange.

Responses build themselves

Gather local agency responses and assemble the state response automatically instead of retyping what agencies already submitted.

The audit cycle

What are the stages of a CJIS audit?

An audit passes back and forth between the state and the agency several times before it closes. CJIS Audit tracks who moved it, and when, at every handoff.
