AUDITS: During the reporting month there were 11 full service audits conducted. There were 7 on-site audits conducted for agencies obtaining "inquiry only" from the CJIS network; 8 criminal justice E-Audits; 25 non-criminal justice audits; and 13 fingerprint/disposition audits. The total number of audits conducted during FY2012: 259. 3. TRAINING: GCIC personnel provided 366 hours of training to 1,113 criminal justice agency employees during the month. 4. AFIS REPLACEMENT Project Description: GCIC is replacing the Georgia Bureau of Investigation's 22 year old Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS). The AFIS replacement enhances fingerprint identification services to permit identification of criminals more rapidly through the use of state of the art alternative search methods and information sharing. Monthly Update: Weekly AFIS Replacement Project Manager and Monthly Executive status meetings are held to assure that the project remains on track. The Project Director, Project Manager and NEC Project Manager met with the GTA Critical Project Review Panel to provide an update of the project. The panel is impressed at how efficiently GBI is handling this project. NEC provided the Final Statement of Work (SOW) and the Project Schedule. The project schedule is still on target to go live in February 2012. NEC has assigned a new Project Manager to oversee the implementation phase of the project and an introduction meeting is scheduled for October. Over one million non-NIST files have been converted to PDF files. The converted non-NIST files contain criminal data only. An error report will be generated later for documents that have pages missing and were not converted to PDF for GCIC to decide how to proceed with processing. The T3 line is scheduled for installation on November 3rd. Hardware for the new AFIS is scheduled for delivery in November. All live scan vendors have completed the recertification process and are ready to install the updated software when AFIS goes live. 11 5. SEX OFFENDER REGISTRY RE-DESIGN PROJECT Project Description: Georgia's Sex Offender Registry (SOR) was created in 1996 and the purpose of the SOR is to provide law enforcement with an efficient and effective method of monitoring sex offenders. In 2010, the Georgia Department of Audits and Accounts Performance Audit Operations conducted an audit on the Georgia SOR and their findings indicated that the SOR is an outdated and inflexible computer system; the registry does not fully meet the needs of law enforcement monitoring and investigating sex offenders and that the public website should provide more complete and accurate information. The information contained in the audit validated issues GBI had noted for some time regarding the need to improve and modernize the SOR. To remedy the current database limitations, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) seeks to modernize and replace the SOR using web technologies, which will allow GBI to accommodate requests from sheriffs and other customers. Moving to web technologies will ensure greater flexibility for the State to incorporate future updates or enhancements as dictated by state or federal legislation, operational needs, or public demands. Increased capabilities would also allow the sex offender database to link to other databases to help improve record accuracy or offender tracking, such as address verification or developing a link with the Department of Corrections for information on re-incarceration of offenders. Offender images would be stored in a format allowing sharing with the Federal Bureau of Investigation's (FBI) National Crime Information Center (NCIC) Convicted Sex Offender File for use by all criminal justice agencies throughout the United States. Access to the public registry would be real time instead of 24 hours old as with the current process of providing a daily update for public web presentation. Monthly Update: Members of the SOR project team along with the GCIC Deputy Director and GBI Legal Director met with the Sex Offender Registry Review Board (SORRB) and representatives from the Attorney General's office and Office of Planning & Budget (OPB) to discuss how the SORRB could gain access to data contained in the Sex Offender Registry. It was decided that a third site from the public and administrative sites would be developed to accommodate the needs of the SORRB. Data from the existing SOR has been migrated into the test Sex Offender Registry Tool (SORT) application and Offender data from the current database is being transformed for the move to the SORT production server. The production server should be ready at the GTA Data Center by December 1. 6. SERVER CONSOLIDATION PROJECT Project Description: The Georgia Technology Authority (GTA) will be consolidating production, test and developmental servers to the NADC. Consolidation and virtualization will enable the state to reduce the number of servers being supported. The team will identify which servers can be consolidated and the timeframe to complete the move. Monthly Update: The project kick-off meeting was held on September 22 and included members from GBI, GTA, IBM AND AT&T. The team discussed an overview of the network requirements and what information would be needed prior to the consolidation. The data collection form was reviewed and disbursed to the team. A meeting was held on Wednesday, October 5, 2011 at 10:00 a.m. EDT. 12 7. WEBSITE RE-DESIGN PROJECT Project Description: The GBI website will be re-designed to better enable the public to find relevant, accurate, up-to-date information. In addition, each division will have a focal point identified to update their websites to improve efficiency. The new website will be consistent with the State of Georgia's website design using Drupal. Monthly Update: The team kicked off this project during September. Focal points were identified and work began to update the content on the division pages. The new Drupal templates will not be available until January 2012, but the team is moving forward to: Improve readability to meet the e-government's recommendation of content being at a 5th grade reading level. Add pictures to complement existing text. Delete any old/expired content. Identify content that links to external sites and add an alert to notify the public that they are leaving the GBI website. 8.
