We also explore best practices for CPAs who fulfill the role of trusted advisor for gig economy clients.

Member Price: $149
Just about every company, no matter its size or the types of activities it undertakes, is at greater risk because of all the types of fraud that can be carried out electronically. Potential perpetrators can be operating internally or externally and the scope of the damage that occurs is almost never limited to cyber-assets. While threat awareness is improving, there are still too many owners or top level executives that underestimate the scale of the issue. In this session, we delve into the types and the nature of many electronic defalcation schemes. The material then explores measures that organizations can implement to help stop these activities and add additional layers of security.
