Challenges
Effective law enforcement entails an increasing amount of data sharing between federal, state and local agencies. To share this data, many agencies are required to comply with network communications security guidelines in the GCSX (Government Connect Secure Extranet) Code of Connection (CoCo) in the United Kingdom or the Criminal Justice Information Service (CJIS) in the United States. The common requirement is that sensitive law enforcement data must be securely separated from other IT systems, users and data.
To further challenge law enforcement IT professionals, many task forces and initiatives are deployed on a temporary basis, eliminating the option of building long-term IT infrastructure.
How can federal, state and local law enforcement agencies achieve compliance without a massive investment in permanent IT infrastructure? What is the best way to secure data when multiple agencies need to work on the same projects?
Solution
Apani® EpiForce® is designed to help law enforcement organizations satisfy regulatory compliance such as CoCo and CJIS without impacting agency networks. EpiForce provides organizations the ability to isolate sensitive criminal justice data from “unclassified” systems and encrypt the transmission of any communication based on granular security policy.
EpiForce is transparent to existing networks and applications, ensuring short deployments and eliminating the need for specialized user training. By enabling security policy based on machines, users or groups, EpiForce is ideal for situations that require “out-of-agency” contracts to special projects.
