Webinar 11/7: IT Guide for Accounting Firms: Security, Compliance, and Outsourcing

Written by Cetrom | Nov 6, 2024 1:25:03 PM

When it comes to data security, the bad guys only need to get it right once; the good guys must get it right 100% of the time.

It’s no secret that the accounting industry has seen a staggering 300% increase in cyberattacks since 2020, which has led to significant risks to accounting firms and their clients and more aggressive data safeguards, regulations, and penalties enforced by the FTC and the IRS.

In addition to ongoing security and compliance needs, accounting firms face unique challenges when recruiting and retaining employees, offshoring, and increasing operational efficiencies. More accounting firms are outsourcing their IT to focus on their growing business needs and mitigate the risks of data breaches, downtime, or non-compliance risks. However, firms must ask the right questions and monitor their IT providers' performance to ensure they get the best service and support possible while meeting their security and compliance needs.

Agenda:

  • Cyber Landscape Update: How accounting firms are being targeted
  • How to manage your data security and minimize your risk
  • Compliance and security guidance for managing remote and offshore staff
  • Questions you should be asking your IT provider
