Here is a copy of the email that CDK likes to send out to dealers and vendors, I guess hoping to throw a bit of fear into them for using services to access CDK DMS for data so they instead use their CDK Dealer Data Exchange service.
----
Subject: CDK DMS Access - Hostile Integration
It’s come to our attention that XXX may be using hostile means to access data within the CDK Dealership Management System (DMS). We understand that data integration is important and want to provide secure, non-hostile means to retrieve it in an approved fashion.
You may have read in the press about our Security First initiative. Security First is focused on protecting our dealers, our brand, and consumers. As part of Security First, CDK has deployed the Dealer Data Exchange to CDK Dealers. Among other things, this technology provides the Dealer with unprecedented visibility (reporting) into what data vendors are accessing within the DMS and how they are accessing it (via an approved interface or hostile connection). XXX has come up as one of the top offenders for hostile integration.
I would like to invite you to discuss moving into an approved connection program ASAP.
What days/times later this week work for an introductory call?
Please let me know..
Kind Regards,
XXXX XXXXX
