(a) Designate an employee or employees to coordinate the information security program;
(b) Identify and assess the risks to customer information;
(c) Design and implement information safeguards to control the risks identified in the risk assessment and regularly monitor and test the safeguards;
(d) Select service providers that can maintain appropriate safeguards and oversee their handling of customer information; and
(e) At least annually evaluate and adjust the program in light of relevant circumstances, including changes in business or operations, or the results of testing and monitoring the effectiveness of the implemented safeguards.
