Securing Criminal Justice Information (CJI) and maintaining compliance with the CJIS Security Policy requires that only authorized individuals have access to the CJI. MongoDB Atlas for Government (US) provides necessary security measures and tools that public sector agencies can utilize to build secure applications in alignment with CJIS security policies.

The essential premise of the CJIS Security Policy is to provide appropriate controls to protect the full lifecycle of CJI, whether at rest or in transit. The CJIS Security Policy provides guidance for the creation, viewing, modification, transmission, dissemination, storage, and destruction of CJI. This Policy applies to every individual—contractor, private entity, noncriminal justice agency representative, or member of a criminal justice entity—with access to, or who operates in support of, criminal justice services and information.

MongoDB Atlas for Government (US) provides strong technical controls to protect data throughout its lifecycle–in use, in transit, and at rest. Moreover, Atlas for Government runs in a dedicated environment built for US government requirements with strong security features built-in by default.
