Director of Information Technology Neil Matchan will be a guest presenter at the Georgia Society of CPAs (GSCPA) Technology Conference on July 25, 2014. Matchan’s presentation, “Risky Business,” will focus on technology risk and its impact on a CPA’s business.
Risks come from all angles, be it from a lack of backup to the malicious user on the Internet that is looking to make a quick profit using your data. We will be covering how to identify those risks and how taking an active participation in your company’s security posture help to mitigate those risks.
With the new crop of viruses, such as the Crypto virus, security not only means protecting your data from outsiders that want to steal your data, but also from outsiders that just want to do harm to your systems in return for a potential ransom. Not all solutions have to be complicated and what’s more, just doing the “IT 101 basics” can go a long way in protecting you from not only monetary loss but help to save your corporate and personal reputation as well.
