LAW SAFE
Data Backup & Disaster Recovery
Your officers wear a bullet proof vest every day, why shouldn’t your data?
Data Backup should be second nature in today’s computing environment. Anywhere data resides, data backup should be there. CJIS Solutions offers data backup products that fit any budget, any amount of data, and any combination of environments.
ABSOLUTE PROTECTION AGAINST THREATS - NEARLY ALL OF THEM
Data and Data Backup go hand in hand, if you have one, you need the other. Issues like Crypto-Locker/Ransomware, viruses, accidental deletion, corrupted data or hardware failures are just a few reasons your agency could lose its data.
Law Safe from CJIS Solutions protects your data by conducting file version backups on a schedule you decide. You can run your backups however you'd like and as many times a day as you'd like. If a Crypto-Virus hits your agency on a Wednesday, and you don't realize it until Friday, just restore the prior backup that was clean and you’re back in business. Because you can have retention policies for as long as you like, you'll always have access to your data so long as you're with us.
UNKNOWN THREATS
Unknown threats are issues you didn’t realize happened until it’s too late. For example, an officer who is subject to an Internal Affairs Investigation and changed reports. Someone accidentally deleted a file and didn’t realize it until it was gone. Or maybe a hard drive was going bad that you didn't realize. Natural disasters, broken water pipes, failed hardware, the list goes on… Whatever the issue, Law Safe protects you from all of them and lets you restore your files as fast as you can download them so you're back in service with minimal downtime.
OFFSITE
The #1 way to protect your agency’s data is OFF-SITE DATA BACKUP. Data backup doesn’t do an agency much good if there is an on-site loss. Broken water pipes, natural/manmade disasters, hardware failures are all reasons why data backup should always be sent to an off-site, remote location. Law Safe gives you the option of doing either or both so you can choose what’s best for your agency.
DIGITAL EVIDENCE QUANDARY
Digital evidence is key in nearly all investigations these days. Should your agency be a victim to a Crypto-Locker/Ransomware virus, you could wind up losing a suppression hearing in court. Once our files are encrypted with a virus, you can no longer fully attest to their integrity in court thus leaving your agency highly susceptible to suppression.
However, a fresh, restored copy of the data from the Law Safe off-site cloud can help protect you, your officers, and case management from that risk.
key compliance points
Encryption
Consistent with all of our products, CJIS Solutions Data Backup is no exception. Data is encrypted at the time it’s processed before it even leaves your agency. It’s then transferred to our compliant cloud environment through an encrypted tunnel. Once your data is received, our servers then store your encrypted data onto our encrypted storage fabric. As always, CJIS Solutions ONLY uses FIPS 140-2 validated encryption modules.
Authentication
Your data backup software only connects to our facility through a dedicated, FIPS 140-2 encrypted tunnel. However, when users need to access their data, 2 Factor Authentication is used to ensure that only authorized users are gaining permission to view and restore your files.
Separate Environments
Once our servers receive your encrypted files, they are stored in their own independent area separate from other agencies. At no time is your data accessible by unauthorized persons.

SIMPLE
Designed with the Cop in Mind
Not all agencies have an IT staff or want to pay someone every time a simple change is needed. CJIS Solutions data backup is designed to be simplistic enough that officers or staff with minimal tech knowledge can use it with ease.
-
SPEED
No Bandwidth Restrictions
What most people don’t realize is that “unlimited” home backup plans limit your upload and download speeds. This might be okay for a home, but when you’ve lost law enforcement data, it could be days or weeks before you can retrieve it. CJIS Solutions doesn’t limit bandwidth. That means you’ll be able to download your important files with speed allowing you to recover quickly.

OPEN & CLOSED FILES
Backup Files, Folders, Databases – Quickly and Securely
Data Backup from CJIS Solutions lets you easily select individual files and databases or entire folders and drives. Open File Support allows you to back them up while in use as well. During backup, they’re compressed and encrypted before being sent to our CJIS compliant cloud for storage.

REDUCE SPACE
Maximum Compression and Block Level Backups Saves you Space and Money
CJIS Solutions Data Backup saves you money by not only compressing your files during the backup process, but also by only backing up the changed portions of the file. During compression, files are kept completely in tact but reduced in size until restored. By backing up just the changed portions of your files, backups are able to upload faster and save the amount of space used in the cloud.
During a restore, your files are de-compressed and put together to make completely, restored, untouched files. This saves you money by reducing the amount of storage space needed for your backups.

SUPPORT
Even the Police need Help

If things get difficult, our technicians and engineers will work the problem until its resolved, in some cases with you remotely. You’re never alone when it comes to CJIS Solutions.
