This video outlines the latest FTC Safeguards Rule guidelines, but even if your business doesn’t fall under these rules, protecting customer data is just good business.
1. Designate a qualified individual in your company to implement and manage your security program.
2. Conduct a risk assessment to identify vulnerabilities and how to protect them.
3. Implement security controls such as rule based access, MFA and encryption.
4. Train your employees with regular cyber security training and phishing simulations.
5. Audit your vendors to make sure they have the same protections in place for your shared data.
6. Review and adapt your safeguards as your business evolves.
7. Build an incident response plan for detecting and recovering from data breaches.
