21 May 2025 GoDaddy Inc.FTC: GoDaddy must set up an information security programme after hosting security gaps Order
According to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC, the US consumer protection authority), the web host did not use multi-factor authentication for its hosting services, monitored security threats inadequately and did not secure connections to customer data, yet advertised “award-winning security”. The final order prohibits false statements about security and requires a comprehensive information security programme and regular reviews by independent assessors.
Be able to prove basics such as MFA and threat monitoring before advertising security – otherwise the advertising promise itself becomes the violation.
