Automotive Risk Management Partners’ latest cyber and compliance security guidelines, released Wednesday, seek to help auto dealers secure their front lines from cyberattacks and physical compliance oversights.

The document, titled “How a Compliance Security Firm Should Protect You,” provides physical and digital auditing and programs for continuous tracking and managing dealership information and data assets.

The report also stresses the importance of quarterly third-party physical and digital audits of compliance and security exposures.

ARMP founder and CEO Terry Dortch said while considerable attention has been paid to cybersecurity in recent years, dealers often neglect the second-most likely reason for cyber and physical data breaches.

“Lack of employee awareness of those risks is a significant danger to dealerships,” Dortch said. “Our 20-plus years of delivering first-class compliance and cybersecurity training, physical audits and digital services to dealerships confirm that, and third-party studies agree.”
