0/2(s
I am submitting this memorandum to advise on required updates to several Memoranda of
Understanding (MOU's) and inter -agency agreements that govern our access to state and federal
criminal justice information systems. As part of the change in department head, new MOUs are
required to ensure that these agreements remain current and are essential for compliance,
operational continuity, and audit readiness.
1. CJIS MOU
The existing CJIS-related documentation requires verification to ensure alignment with
current FBI and state CJIS Security Policy standards. This includes updated language on
data access controls, authentication requirements, and audit procedures. FDLE requires
an updated MOU when a department head changes at an agency.
2. TRACS (Traffic and Criminal Software)
Per FDLE requirements, an updated MOU for TRACS is required whenever there is a
change in the depaitalent head. Now that this transition has occurred, a new agreement
must be completed to remain in compliance.
Prior MOUs are available for review if requested. We can set up the new ones via Docusign or
paper version, whichever you choose. Attached are the new agreements for wet signature.
