The CJIS coordinator is also known as which role?

• A. Local Agency Security Officer
• B. Cybersecurity Compliance Officer
• C. Law Enforcement Liaison Officer
• D. Public Safety Administrator

Answer: (A)

In CJIS terms, the person responsible for implementing and enforcing the CJIS Security Policy at a local agency is designated as the Local Agency Security Officer. The CJIS Coordinator is typically that same role, serving as the point person to manage CJIS security compliance, oversee access to CJIS data and systems, ensure personnel training and background checks, handle incident response, and act as the liaison with the CJIS program. That’s why this option is the best fit. The other titles don’t align with the CJIS framework: a Cybersecurity Compliance Officer is a broader term not specific to CJIS policy, a Law Enforcement Liaison Officer isn’t the CJIS security role, and a Public Safety Administrator is an administrative role without CJIS-specific duties.
