Under the Safeguards Rule, financial institutions must protect the consumer information they collect. The Gramm-Leach-Bliley (GLB) Act requires companies defined under the law as "financial institutions" to ensure the security and confidentiality of this type of information. The "financial institutions" definition includes professional tax preparers. As part of its implementation of the GB Act, the Federal Trade Commission issued the Safeguards Rule, which requires financial institutions under FTC jurisdiction to have measures in place to keep customer information secure. The Safeguards Rule requires companies to develop a written information security plan that describes their program to protect customer information.
