FBI CJIS Security Policy

What it means

If your work reaches data from law-enforcement systems (CJI), the FBI's CJIS Security Policy governs it. It adds requirements ordinary frameworks do not, most notably fingerprint-based background checks and advanced authentication for everyone with access.

Educational reference only — not legal advice. Consult a qualified assessor or attorney for binding compliance determinations.
