Since 2023 The FTC requires every dealership to designate a Qualified Individual to run its Information Security Program.

The challenge

Sales teams are measured on profit. Compliance is measured on restraint. Both report to you.

Dealerships struggle to maintain compliance operations linked to legal mandates and regulations, their third-party software vendors, and across multiple locations — because essential producers and managers driving dealership sales often have conflicting agendas: profits versus compliance.

  • 01

    Legal mandates and regulations

    Federal rules written for financial institutions, enforced against dealerships, with penalties that scale per violation.

  • 02

    Third-party software vendors

    DMS, CRM, F&I menus and lender portals each handle customer data the dealership remains accountable for.

  • 03

    Multiple locations

    One information security program across many rooftops, with a different person responsible at each.

Services

Five solutions. One coordinated compliance effort.

Training for the FTC's mandated Qualified Individual role, dealership IT cybersecurity risk management, online IT security awareness training, phishing defense and simulation, and Safeguards Rule mandated best-practice policies and procedures.

Why Dealer EFX

We do not sell the software. We protect the dealership.

We leverage the experience of our partners to establish a “Good Faith Compliance Effort” strategy — the gold standard of legal protections — built on 25 years of dealership compliance operations, cybersecurity standards and frameworks.

25

Years of dealership compliance operations

Programs shaped by decades of hands-on dealership compliance, not generic corporate IT training.

01

Fully independent

No DMS, CRM or hardware to sell. Our recommendations are shaped only by your regulatory exposure.

02

A defensible legal standard

A documented Good Faith Compliance Effort is what regulators and courts look for when something goes wrong.

03

Recognized by insurers

The controls we install overlap PCI DSS and cyber insurance requirements — practices carriers reward with premium and deductible reductions.

The FTC Safeguards Rule · 16 C.F.R. § 314
