FTC Safeguards Rule Compliance
Ensure your business is ready to comply with the latest provisions
On June 9, certain provisions of the FTC’s Safeguards Rule went into effect, requiring non-banking financial institutions to develop, implement, and maintain a written information security program that includes administrative, technical, and physical safeguards for protecting customer data.
