The Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) has extended its deadline to implement its safeguards rules for dealerships from December 9, 2022 to June 9, 2023.

Schneider Downs’ cybersecurity leader, Carl Kriebel, gave his insight on the process back in August of 2022. Please read Carl’s thoughts on the process titled “Automotive Dealerships and the FTC Safeguards Rule Deadline: Is Your Information Security Program Compliant?“.
