GiraffeDoc deciphering the FTC Safeguard rule for Auto Dealers
As Automotive Dealerships navigate the stringent landscape of the new FTC Safeguard Rules. GiraffeDoc recognizes the unique challenges faced by the automotive industry in safeguarding sensitive customer information. The FTC’s Safeguard rules disrupted the automotive industry, like we haven’t seen in years. Dealership’s have had to become Computer Security experts, Lawyers, and continue to grow and maintain their businesses. The strict requirements that Dealership Qualified Individuals have to navigate and interpretations of laws, that many in the legal field struggle with has Dealership bodies struggling to know what exactly are the requirements that the FTC expects of dealerships.
GiraffeDoc’s creation was a result of the FTC Safeguard Rules. GiraffeDoc saw a few secure file transfer vendors in the Automotive market, but all the vendors either relied on standard security protocols or the costs to a dealership were too high for local smaller automotive dealerships to be compliant with the Safeguard Rules.
