ACJIS compliance for Arizona law enforcement agencies
Arizona agencies accessing CJI answer to the FBI's CJIS Security Policy v6.0 and the ACJIS Operating Manual administered by DPS's Criminal Justice Services Bureau, which certifies personnel on a rolling two-year clock. ComplianceLattice tracks the federal foundation both share.
A federal baseline, certified per person on issue date
DPS's Access Integrity Unit runs periodic operational audits of the central state repository and every agency that contributes to or receives criminal justice information, and personnel certifications are valid for two years from the date each one was issued - not a shared calendar date across the agency, but a clock that starts individually per person.
Underneath that certification structure, the substance is the same work every CJIS-connected agency in the country does - access control, authentication, audit logging, incident response, and the rest of CJIS v6.0's 20 policy areas. ComplianceLattice tracks that full federal baseline today, covering most of the ground before you get to Arizona's certification-cadence specifics.
Because each person's two-year clock starts on their own issue date rather than a shared agency-wide date, staggered hiring means your agency likely has multiple recertification deadlines in flight at once rather than one date to plan around. If your agency is working through the ACJIS Operating Manual requirements now, reach out - alpha tester feedback directly shapes what we build first.
