FTC Safeguards Compliance Services in Anchorage
The FTC Safeguards Rule applies to a broader range of businesses than most people realize. If your company handles customer financial information — and that includes auto dealers, mortgage brokers, tax preparers, accountants, and insurance agents — you're required to develop, implement, and maintain a comprehensive information security program. DenaliTEK helps Alaska businesses meet those requirements.
What the FTC Safeguards Rule Requires
The updated FTC Safeguards Rule (effective June 2023) requires covered financial institutions to designate a qualified individual to oversee their information security program, conduct risk assessments, implement specific safeguards (including encryption, access controls, and multi-factor authentication), and regularly test and monitor those safeguards.
For many Alaska businesses, this is a significant operational shift — particularly smaller firms that have historically managed security informally.
