Security that meets US federal government standards with more than 1,200 security controls.

Built to Safeguard Trust in the Record.

At For The Record, security isn’t just a checkbox—it’s the foundation of every product we build. Courts handle sensitive, high-stakes information, and those depending on the justice system deserve to trust every aspect of the record. Our approach is built to meet and exceed that standard—giving courts the confidence to modernize while protecting the record and the principles of accessibility, transparency, and integrity at the heart of justice.

Secure Justice Records

FTR Justice Cloud delivers enterprise-grade security, exceeding requirements to protect sensitive court data from rising cyber threats.

The Rising Stakes of Courtroom Security.

Across the world, justice systems are under increasing pressure from cyberattacks and data breaches. Court records are among the most sensitive data a government holds—containing testimony, evidence, and personal details that must remain accurate, accessible, and tamper-proof.

For The Record takes this responsibility seriously. We continually invest in technology, frameworks, and certifications that go beyond minimum requirements to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of every record.

That’s why we built FTR Justice Cloud with security as a cornerstone, not an afterthought, and pursued compliance with the most rigorous industry and government standards.

Unmatched Compliance in Justice Technology.

No other company in the court-recording industry comes close to the breadth of FTR Justice Cloud’s security designations.

CJIS (Criminal Justice Information Services Security Policy)

FBI-level protection for criminal justice information, including strict requirements for encryption, user access controls, audit logs, background checks, and signed security addendums. Essential for courts handling criminal justice data.

SOC 2 Type 2 (Service Organization Control)

An independent audit validating that FTR Justice Cloud consistently maintains secure practices over time. SOC 2 Type 2 demonstrates our operational discipline across the Trust Services Criteria: security, availability, processing integrity, confidentiality, and privacy.

NIST 800-53 Rev. 5 (National Institute of Standards and Technology)

The federal benchmark for mission-critical systems. With over 1,200 controls spanning encryption, logging, incident response, supply chain risk, and zero trust architectures, NIST 800-53 Rev. 5 ensures our platform meets the same standards expected of federal agencies. Federal compliance programs such as FedRAMP use NIST 800-53 Rev. 5 as the baseline for its security control guidance.

Cloud Security Alliance Cloud Controls Matrix (CCM)

A comprehensive cloud security framework with 197 controls across 17 domains, providing guidance on governance, risk management, data protection, and security responsibilities for cloud service providers and customers.

UK Cyber Essentials

A UK government-backed certification ensuring basic cyber hygiene, covering access controls, firewalls, patch management, malware protection, and secure configuration of devices and software.

Defense Built In.

Encryption

Encryption of data in transit and at rest

Digital checksums

Digital checksums to ensure the record is never altered

Audit logging

Audit logging for full system traceability

Role-based access controls

Role-based access controls so only authorized individuals can access recordings and transcripts

Secure replication and access

Secure replication and access through FTR Justice Cloud, balancing usability with compliance

By aligning with CJIS, SOC 2 Type 2, and NIST 800-53 Rev. 5, FTR Justice Cloud is engineered for environments where security isn’t optional—it’s essential. This multilayered compliance demonstrates not only that we meet the highest expectations for justice and transparency, but that we’re setting the standard for secure digital transformation in courts.

By anticipating threats—rather than just responding to them—For The Record demonstrates that our security posture is forward-looking as much as it is robust.

Staying Ahead of Emerging Threats.

Modern justice isn’t immune to evolving cyber risks. Among the most concerning is deepfake media—synthetic audio or video that can be manipulated to mimic real people or events. Courts must guard against the introduction of false media into courtrooms. That’s why The Record’s solutions ensure court recordings are protected end to end—captured and stored within the same secure platform to ensure the integrity of every word. Even legacy audio is carefully verified before being added, and no recording can be uploaded without following a strict, auditable process.

For The Record is aware of these challenges and designs with future-proofing in mind:

  • Supporting cryptographic digital signatures, digital provenance tracking, and forensic metadata to help trace authenticity
  • Engineering audit architecture to preserve chain-of-custody histories and detect anomalous behavior
  • Collaborating with experts in cybersecurity and legal tech to stay current on emerging threats
