Do you support our DMS provider?

We support most major dealer management systems. Tell us your vendor during your assessment.

What does FTC Safeguards compliance actually require from our IT?

A written security plan, access controls, encryption, monitoring, and incident response. We walk through what that means for your dealership during your assessment.

Can you support multiple locations under one contract?

Yes. Multi-location dealerships are supported under a single managed IT agreement.

Which dealer management systems do you support?

We support the major DMS platforms and the CRM, desking, F&I, and service tools around them. Most of what we do is the network, workstations, security, and vendor coordination that those systems depend on.

Can you help us answer our cyber insurance questionnaire?

Yes. Dealership questionnaires focus on MFA, endpoint detection, backups, and vendor access. We close the gaps and provide the evidence for each answer.

Do you support the service department's equipment too?

Yes. Shop tablets, diagnostic tools, parts lookup workstations, and the Wi-Fi that covers the service bays are part of the dealership network we manage.

IT that keeps your lot and F&I office running

We know dealerships

Your dealer management system, F&I office, and service bay depend on different systems staying up and secure at the same time. We manage the network connecting sales, service, and finance. A slow DMS or outage should never stop a deal from closing.

Compliance

As a dealership, you hold customer financial data subject to the FTC Safeguards Rule. We build access control, encryption, and monitoring practices around those requirements. See exactly what we do for FTC Safeguards.

Relevant services

A dealership is four businesses on one network

Sales runs on the CRM and desking tools. F&I runs on credit portals and lender integrations and holds the most sensitive customer data in the building. Service runs on the DMS, shop tablets, and diagnostic equipment. Parts runs on lookup systems and inventory. All four share a network, a phone system, and an internet connection, and all four stop when any of them does.

We support dealerships across Sarasota, Manatee, and Charlotte counties with one team that knows how those pieces fit, and one plan that covers all of them.

What we manage on the lot

Showroom, office, and service-bay network with Wi-Fi that reaches the back of the lot
Workstations for sales, F&I, service, and parts, with the DMS and CRM clients configured and patched
A segmented network so the F&I office, the customer Wi-Fi, and the shop equipment aren't on the same wire
Phone systems with sales and service queues, call recording, and BDC routing
Endpoint detection, email security, and MFA on every account that can reach customer data
Vendor access control and logging for DMS, CRM, and lender integrations
Backups of local servers and DMS exports, tested

Common gaps we find in dealerships

A shared F&I login or a password on a sticky note
Credit applications scanned to a shared folder anyone can open
Customer Wi-Fi on the same network as the DMS
Former salespeople with live CRM and email access
No multi-factor authentication on the DMS or lender portals
Nobody named as the Safeguards Rule's qualified individual

The FTC Safeguards Rule, handled

Every dealership that arranges financing is covered by the rule. It requires MFA, encryption, access controls, monitoring, a written risk assessment, vendor oversight, staff training, an incident response plan, and annual reporting. We provide the technical controls in the managed plan and the assessment, documentation, and evidence through the Compliance add-on. What the rule means for your store, and exactly what we do.

Multi-rooftop groups

Groups with stores in Sarasota, Bradenton, and Port Charlotte run on one agreement, one phone system, one security policy, and one portal, with technicians routed to each location.
