What Is the GLBA Safeguard Rule?
The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA) is a 1999 law that allowed financial institutions to offer commercial and investment banking. The GLBA Safeguards Rule requires institutions covered by the GLBA to protect the confidentiality, integrity, and security of any sensitive information the organization possesses.
Initially, only organizations defined as “financial institutions” were subject to the Safeguards Rule. However, the rule was updated on December 9, 2021. Under the Safeguards Rule, any company engaging in an activity that is financial in nature or incidental to such economic activities is a “financial institution” and must follow the rule.
What Does the GLBA Safeguards Rule Mean to Dealerships?
Any dealership that leases a car longer than 90 days is deemed a financial institution and must comply. You must develop, implement, and maintain an information security program with administrative and technical measures to protect sensitive data. Essential data is defined under the rule as “any record containing nonpublic personal information about a customer of a financial institution, whether in paper, electronic, or other form, that is handled or maintained by or on behalf of you or your affiliates.”
Your information security program has to be written and suited to the complexity of your company. Your security tools should:
- Protect against anticipated threats to the safety and integrity of customer information
- Protect against unauthorized access to information that could cause harm to a customer
- Ensure the confidentiality of customer data
