Here is the honest situation. The FTC Safeguards Rule (16 CFR Part 314) requires non-bank financial institutions to protect customer information through a written information security program overseen by a qualified individual, a written risk assessment, safeguards including access controls, asset inventory, encryption, secure development, multi-factor authentication and secure disposal, monitoring and logging, regular testing, service-provider oversight, a written incident response plan, and an annual report to the board. An institution with generic IT controls but no written program or MFA is exactly where organizations fall short.
This Kit removes the guesswork. It is the FTC Safeguards Rule written as adopt-ready controls you personalize in a weekend, with the evidence the FTC examines.
What you get, the moment you buy
Grounded in the FTC Safeguards Rule. Editable Word and Excel files.
What one control looks like
This is the opening control, where the program begins. All 18 are built to this depth.
Why this is not another template pack
- The evidence is the point. A requirement you cannot evidence is a gap waiting to be found. This tells you what the FTC examines and where organizations fall short, for every requirement.
- The specifics built in. The safeguard's distinctive requirements are written into the controls, not left generic.
- Built on a mapped compliance corpus, not one person's opinion, from a graph of thousands of controls across standards.
- It compounds. This work shares its shape with related security and safety frameworks, so it feeds your wider program.
Who buys this
Non-bank financial institutions and their security, compliance and IT teams. Whether it is a first alignment or an examination-readiness pass, you save weeks and walk in with your written program, qualified individual, risk assessment, MFA, encryption and incident response controls structured.
