The value of your lot is increasing. That calls for better protection.

Wholesale values are up nearly 10 percent over last year. That means the cars already on your lot are appreciating, not depreciating, and criminals know it.

Synthetic identity fraud is a growing risk in automotive retail.

It sounds counterintuitive, but a Tier 1 credit score is no longer a guarantee of a legitimate buyer. In fact, it can be a primary red flag for synthetic identity fraud.

Advanced authentification is critical for fraud prevention.

Top-tier dealership groups are moving away from reactive security and toward digital citadels. This is the practice of "locking the gate" at the F&I desk through advanced authentication before a vehicle ever touches the curb.

Thieves disable OEM systems in moments.

Because OEM systems are easily bypassed, a secondary, dealer-level GPS device is your recovery insurance. These should be "hard-adds" that provide law enforcement with real-time tracking they can actually use.

The first 60 minutes is critical to recovery.

Immediate reporting increases the chance of recovery in the first 24 hours by 34%.
