188bet亚洲真人体育下载’s 梅纳康 Sees Numerous Roles for CPAs in Battle against Cyber Crime

Cyber crime has emerged as a leading financial and operational risk for organizations of all sizes in all sectors. 考虑到这一点， American Institute of CPAs (188bet亚洲真人体育下载) is taking a multifaceted approach to cybersecurity through the work of the Assurance Services Executive Committee 和 审计质量中心. This work will allow CPAs to take a leadership role,” 188bet亚洲真人体育下载 President and CEO 巴里·C. 梅纳康, CPA, CGMA, explains in a new video.

美国.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has acknowledged publicly that the accounting profession’s experience with integrating data, reporting and assurance puts CPAs in a unique position to assist organizations as they address their cybersecurity concerns. “But this is not just a public company issue,” said 梅纳康. “It affects businesses of all types, shapes, and sizes.”
 
The 188bet亚洲真人体育下载 is already seeing explosive growth in the need for cybersecurity-related services that build on the foundation for Service Organization Control, 或SOC, 报告. “This demand is driven by market forces, not a 政府 mandate. And the market is asking us to do more, from both the advisory and assurance perspectives,”她说.

In response to the cyber challenge, the 188bet亚洲真人体育下载 is taking action on many fronts. 特别是, the Congressional and Political Affairs Team is closely monitoring cyber-related legislative and regulatory developments in our nation’s capital so it can respond appropriately and keep members informed. The Institute also is developing timely tools and education for CPAs to successfully address risk in a number of areas, as well as exploring how the profession can address cybersecurity as a natural extension of the platform of services CPAs already perform.
