With the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) revised Safeguards Rule going into effect Dec. 9, along with a host of state data protection laws, automotive dealers are being forced to ramp up their information security programs to meet strict regulatory requirements. In response, ComplyAuto announces an exclusive partnership with Coro, an end-to-end cybersecurity platform, to become the first “all-in-one” solution to help dealers meet technical, administrative, and legal requirements of state and federal data protection laws.
“After vetting hundreds of different cybersecurity technologies and providers, Coro’s focus on reducing the barrier to entry for enterprise-level cybersecurity tools with a simple, automated, and dealer-tailored solution made it the obvious partner choice for us,” said Chris Cleveland, co-founder and CEO, ComplyAuto. “Until now, dealers have been forced to outsource their privacy and cybersecurity needs to numerous third parties such as attorneys, compliance firms, IT professionals, and a variety of different cybersecurity software vendors. With this unique partnership with Coro, dealers can now achieve all of this within a single pane of glass inside of ComplyAuto.”
Cleveland said he believes the partnership with Coro will save ComplyAuto dealers a significant amount of time and money by offering a solution that combines more than 10 different data protection tools in a single platform with one login. Dealers will be able to use ComplyAuto to satisfy data encryption, multi-factor authentication, 24/7 threat monitoring (EDR/MDR), penetration testing, vulnerability scanning, phishing simulations, unauthorized activity monitoring, and data leak prevention requirements.
With more than 5,000 dealerships nationwide, entrusting ComplyAuto with the state privacy and federal information security needs, and endorsements by more than 35 state auto dealer associations (including a NADA Affinity partnership), ComplyAuto has become the leader in automotive privacy and cybersecurity compliance.
“Coro will reinforce and expand ComplyAuto’s current product and service offerings so that it can become the only solution that a dealership will ever need for all of its data protection concerns,” said Cleveland.
