SLED and public safety

County, city, education, emergency response, and justice environments with limited SOC staff.

Provide a 24/7 evidence-producing security team that combines cloud posture, endpoint, identity, email, public-safety UAS, and incident response with clear escalation paths.

Sector problems

What this environment has to get right

  • A small IT team cannot watch alerts around the clock, and ransomware does not wait for business hours.
  • Criminal justice information has its own access, audit, and incident rules.
  • Schools and 911 centers cannot tolerate disruptive scans during the day.
  • Student education records cannot be reused or sent to an AI provider the district has not approved.
  • Public-safety drone fleets need assurance for firmware, links, and supply chain.

Regulations and frameworks

How AI SOAR supports the evidence, not the determination

Mappings help you collect and organize evidence. An assessor, examiner, auditor, or authorizing official still decides whether the obligation is met. The platform does not certify an organization or file a regulatory notice.

FrameworkWhat it asks forHow the platform helps
FBI CJIS Security PolicyOfficial source ↗Protect criminal justice information with access control, auditing, encryption, and incident response. Version 6.0 was released in December 2024.Signed log artifacts, MFA gap checks, and evidence handling support the agency's CJIS security officer. The auditor makes the determination.
FERPAOfficial source ↗Protect the privacy of student education records.Local models can keep inference inside the district. Reports can carry a FERPA overlay. External model use for student data stays behind approval.
NIST SP 800-53 and NIST CSFOfficial source ↗Many states use these as the control baseline for agencies and for cloud programs such as GovRAMP.Control and evidence workflows map findings to the baseline. On-premises installation keeps data in agency infrastructure. No GovRAMP or TX-RAMP authorization is claimed for the product.
State breach-notification lawsNotify affected residents and regulators on the state's clock.Incident timelines track the clock. People decide and file the notice.
FAA Part 107 and Remote IDOfficial source ↗Public-safety drones operate under FAA rules for registration, remote identification, and the operation.UAS reviews cover firmware, remote identification, geofences, and command links. Flight and radio actions stay evidence-only unless separately authorized.

Typical workflows

Illustrative missions, with a person still in control

These workflows show how documented capabilities apply. They are not customer case studies, and they do not describe a guaranteed outcome.

Overnight ransomware at a county

Problem
An alert shows ransomware-like behavior on a file server at 2 a.m., and nobody is on shift.
What the platform does
Autonomous SOC correlates endpoint, log, and identity signals and prepares containment through the county's own tools, then pages the on-call lead.
Human approval
Isolating the server or disabling an account waits for that lead.
Evidence
An incident record, an action audit, and a post-incident report.

Assess a school district during the year

Problem
Several campuses need a vulnerability and wireless review, and classes cannot be disrupted.
What the platform does
Temporary collectors and a low-impact profile limit the work to rate-limited discovery. Disruptive templates are refused.
Human approval
A broader profile needs written approval and a change window.
Evidence
An executive summary, a technical report, a remediation roadmap, and an evidence bundle.

CJIS audit readiness

Problem
Log retention, access reviews, and MFA evidence are spread across systems before an audit.
What the platform does
Log artifacts are collected and signed, identity checks look for MFA gaps, and the set is mapped to CJIS policy areas.
Human approval
The CJIS security officer reviews the package before it goes to the auditor.
Evidence
Signed logs, an MFA gap analysis, access reviews, and an evidence report.

Agent roles and workflows

A practical route from scope to evidence

  1. 01

    Scope and connect

    Define the customer profile, authorized assets, and responsible owners. County, city, education, emergency response, and justice environments with limited SOC staff.

  2. 02

    Test and investigate

    Use Autonomous SOC, ITDR, email security workflows with approved credentials and mission limits. Preserve source evidence and failures alongside findings.

  3. 03

    Remediate and verify

    Assign corrective work, obtain approvals, capture changes, and retest. Export the evidence, exceptions, and status history for business owners and assessors.

Questions for this sector

Answers you can take to a scoping call

Does it support CJIS work?+

It maps evidence to the FBI CJIS Security Policy, including signed audit logs, MFA enforcement checks, and evidence handling. The agency's auditor decides compliance.

Can a small city use it without a SOC?+

Yes. Autonomous SOC provides round-the-clock triage and prepares response, with human approval for high-impact actions. The city can run it or consume it through an MSSP.

How is student data handled?+

The platform can run on local models so prompts stay in the district. External use of student data requires approval, and reports can include a FERPA overlay.

Is the product GovRAMP or TX-RAMP authorized?+

No GovRAMP or TX-RAMP status is claimed. Agencies can install it on-premises or in their own cloud tenant, and control mappings follow NIST SP 800-53, which those programs build on.
