Case studies
All case studiesQuestions auto dealers leaders ask
- Does the FTC Safeguards Rule apply to our dealership?If your dealership arranges financing or leasing, almost certainly. The FTC treats those dealers as financial institutions under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act. The updated Safeguards Rule requires a written information security program, a qualified person in charge of it, risk assessments, multi-factor authentication, encryption, and notifying the FTC of certain breaches.
- How do we stop fake invoices and wire-transfer fraud sent by email?Treat every request to change payment details as suspicious until it's verified by phone, using a number you already had, not one from the email. Add multi-factor authentication so your own mailboxes can't be taken over, set up email authentication so criminals can't send as your domain, and train the people who move money.
