#44: Cash in the Cyber Sheets - FTC Safeguards Checklist - Security Controls

Season #1

When people think of security controls, they usually picture firewalls, antivirus software, and multi-factor authentication. But truly protecting your business goes beyond just technical solutions—it requires a mix of administrative, physical, and technical controls working together.

In this episode of Cash in the Cyber Sheets, we continue our deep dive into the FTC Safeguards Rule Checklist, focusing on appropriate security controls. We’ll cover the essentials, including malware management, password managers, and MFA, while also tackling the often-overlooked administrative and physical safeguards that are just as critical.

How do you determine which controls are right for your organization? What gaps might you be overlooking? We break it all down so you can build a security strategy that actually works—not just one that checks a compliance box.

If you're serious about protecting sensitive data (and avoiding hefty fines), this episode is for you.
