Data Encryption for the FTC Safeguards Rule

Virtru’s Zero Trust data encryption protects customer data in transit and at rest, equipping organizations to comply with evolving FTC regulations.

Who does the FTC Safeguards Rule apply to?

The Safeguards Rule applies to "financial institutions” over which the Commission has rulemaking authority pursuant to section 501(b) of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act. View the FTC's guidelines for more information on whether your organization falls under the FTC Safeguards Rule.

Auto dealerships manage sensitive consumer financial data related to vehicle purchases and loans. Auto dealerships need to securely collect and manage this financial data, whether via email or secure file-sharing platforms.

Support GLBA, CFPB, FINRA, and PCI Compliance

Secure Cardholder Data for PCI Compliance

Payment Card Industry (PCI) data security standards apply to those who accept or process payment cards. That includes protecting stored cardholder data as well as encrypting the transmission of cardholder data across open, public networks. It also requires maintaining a policy that addresses information security for employees and contractors.

Data Encryption for GLBA Compliance

The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act requires financial institutions (including insurance providers) to safeguard customer information by developing, implementing, and maintaining a comprehensive information security program, one element of which is to “protect by encryption all customer information held or transmitted by you both in transit over external networks and at rest,” wherever feasible.

Strengthen Confidentiality for FINRA Compliance

Largely aligned with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) recommendations for cybersecurity, FINRA evaluates firms’ cybersecurity and risk management processes to ensure customer data is protected. According to FINRA, it “assesses a firm’s ability to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of sensitive customer information.”

Preserve Consumer Privacy for CFPB Compliance

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau underscores the need to comply with GLBA, particularly as it relates to transparently communicating privacy practices to consumers.
