In a recent blog post, Andrew Smith, director of the Federal Trade Commission’s Bureau of Consumer Protection, describes how the agency has improved its orders in data security cases.
In the post, published Monday, Smith notes the FTC has made “significant improvements” to its data security orders in 2019. These improvements are reflected in seven orders announced in 2019 against an array of diverse companies. He specifically cited the ClixSense, i-Dressup, and DealerBuilt cases, as well as the D-Link, Equifax, Retina-X, and Infotrax cases.
