In today’s rapidly evolving public safety landscape, technology is more than a tool—it’s a lifeline. Agencies tasked with protecting their communities require secure, resilient, and compliant solutions to manage sensitive information and deliver essential services. Partnering with the right technology provider is a critical decision that impacts everything from operational efficiency to public trust.
At Mark43, we are committed to being more than just a public safety platform. We aim to be a trusted security partner, equipping public safety agencies with modern, cloud-native solutions while embedding governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) into every facet of our operations. Here’s how our strong GRC foundation ensures security, compliance, and peace of mind for the agencies we serve.
Data Security: A Core Priority
Public safety agencies handle critical and highly sensitive information, such as criminal justice data (CJI), emergency response details, and personal records of citizens. Any breach of this data can undermine investigations, jeopardize operations, and erode the trust that communities place in their agencies. That’s why Mark43 prioritizes security at every level.
- Secure Infrastructure: Mark43 ensures strong encryption, resilience, and data protection both at rest and in transit by operating on one of the most secure and compliant cloud platforms, AWS GovCloud.
- Rigorous Security Controls: Mark43 enforces strong encryption, access controls, and continuous monitoring to safeguard data while complying with CJIS requirements. Our SOC 2 Type II and SOC 3 Attestations validate our commitment to security and continuous improvement.
- Transparency and Support: Mark43 offers detailed documentation, audit reports, and compliance evidence to help agencies meet CJIS obligations with ease. Our comprehensive Cyber Security Program document is available to customers, providing clear insight into our security measures and commitments.
Proactive Risk Management
Public safety agencies navigate a high-stakes, ever-evolving threat landscape where cyberattacks, data breaches, and operational disruptions can jeopardize critical missions and erode public trust. Mark43’s robust GRC program integrates proactive risk management into every aspect of its operations, enabling agencies to anticipate and address risks before they escalate.
- Threat Monitoring and Response: Mark43 uses advanced threat detection tools and real-time monitoring to identify risks before they escalate. By scanning for unusual activity and emerging vulnerabilities, we ensure rapid responses to threats, keeping operations uninterrupted.
- Incident Response Planning: Our GRC team collaborates with internal teams to develop, update, and test incident response plans tailored to public safety agencies. This ensures a coordinated and effective approach to minimize impact and quickly restore normal operations in the event of a security incident. We also offer the opportunity to run customized incident response exercises with our customers, simulating real-world scenarios to strengthen preparedness, improve coordination, and enhance overall response capabilities.
- Risk Assessment and Prevention: Regular risk assessments are central to the Mark43 approach. By evaluating systems, processes, and technologies, we proactively identify vulnerabilities and implement measures to ensure a secure and resilient technology environment for public safety agencies. Additionally, we offer CJIS assessments to our customers, helping them evaluate compliance, identify potential gaps, and strengthen their security posture.
