About The Webinar
On October 27th, 2021 the FTC completed its rulemaking process for 16 CFR Part 314: Standards for Safeguarding Customer Information. This regulation impacts financial institutions, including automotive dealerships, so long as they maintain customer information concerning more than 5,000 consumers.
This rule sets forth a set of cybersecurity requirements for these institutions to adhere to with the purpose of safeguarding customer data. Some of these requirements include implementing multi-factor authentication, end-to-end encryption, and the development of processes such as change management and incident response. For most requirements, organizations have a year to align with the standard, however there are parts of this rule that must be implemented within 30 days.
Join gold partner Michael Hammond, IT Audit & Security Partner, from O’Connor & Drew, P.C. and bronze partner Andrew Wells, Attorney with BERNSTENSHUR as they break down this new rule for auto dealers and find how this will impact your company. They will discuss the final rule, changes from the proposed rule, how you may already be doing some of the requirements, and how you can expect to become compliant with the areas you are not.
