Thrive’s CJIS Compliant Data Centers and Personnel
Thrive offers integrated, Next Generation services for state and local government agencies needing to meet CJIS compliance.
Thrive data centers in Winter Haven, Florida and Dallas, Texas are approved by Florida’s CJIS Systems Agency (CSA) to deliver CJIS compliant cloud and disaster recovery services to Florida-based agencies.
These services are also available for agencies in states such as Alabama, New Jersey, and New Hampshire. Since CJIS compliance and vendor approvals are governed by the CJIS Systems Agency (CSA) in each state, the approval process may vary by state.
Thrive’s CJIS-compliant data centers provide geo-diverse and strategic options for added resilience, continuity, and peace of mind without adding unnecessary complexity. With the increased focus on Alternate Storage Site (CP-6) and Alternate Processing Site (CP-7) controls, these sites enable solutions that strengthen continuity and disaster recovery, directly supporting the mission‑critical work that public safety depends on.
Thrive’s security-focused policies and procedures are also aligned in support of agencies’ CJIS compliance.
Thrive’s services have been designed and configured to ensure that CJIS clients are isolated in our systems and that only CJIS compliant personnel have access to that data. These personnel members have all achieved Level 4 Security Awareness Certification and have undergone local and national fingerprint-based background checks.
Thrive has assessed the operational policies and procedures of our offerings listed below and will attest in the applicable service agreements to their ability to meet requirements for the use of in-scope services. This enables law enforcement and criminal justice management entities to implement cloud-based solutions and comply with the current CJIS Security Policy Controls.
