Vendor tier 1 of 4 · Software

Access: the entry point for every vendor.

Connectivity, downloadable reports, security training, and e-signature — the things nearly every vendor needs, bundled into one package you can buy yourself inside CJIS Online.

What you get

What is included in Access?

Connectivity, e-signature, document storage, reporting, and security training — sold as one package rather than as separate decisions.

Single sign-on

Your people sign in with the credentials they already have, which removes a password to manage and a reason to call support.

API access

Pull training and clearance data into your own systems, and automate user provisioning instead of maintaining a roster by hand.

Multi-factor authentication

MFA on accounts that touch criminal justice information, which is also what unlocks protected document access elsewhere in the platform.

New in Access

E-signature

Replaces printing, wet-signing, scanning, and filing. Employees sign, your admin countersigns, and the finished PDF is stamped as electronically signed and verified within CJIS Online.

New in Access

FBI and state addendums

Alongside the FBI Security Addendum, state-specific versions including Texas and California are supported, each tracked as its own document with its own history. Where a state requires extra detail before signing, the employee is asked for it up front.

New in Access

Sign a stack at once

Admins work from a signature queue rather than an inbox. Sign a batch in one action, or step through each document individually first when you want to check the employee's signature before executing.

New in Access

Renewals on your terms

Set an addendum to renew with the annual security and privacy training cycle, or trigger a fresh signing round on demand when something changes. In-flight signatures are never restarted by a new round.

Downloadable reports

CSV report export is a paid capability. Vendor companies holding no add-on cannot export reports at all, so Access is what keeps bulk certificate and document exports available to you.

New in Access

Cyber and incident response training

Security courses that go beyond the CJIS minimum, included in the bundle rather than bought separately.

Document storage

Keep the documents each agency asks for in the same platform as the training and the addendums, so they are attached to the employee they belong to rather than sitting in a shared drive.

Already on Access? Vendors who bought before these capabilities shipped are on CJO Access (Legacy), which covers single sign-on, API, and MFA. The items marked above came with the current package, and upgrading is available in CJIS Online whenever you want it — nothing changes until you choose to.
