The annual global
cost of cybercrime is high and getting higher all the time. In the United
States alone, the FBI received reports of 467,361 complaints involving $3.5
billion in 2019.
Certain business
organizations, among which are those referred to as “financial institutions,”
are charged by the FTC with taking particular steps to protect their customers’
financial information. Included in the category of financial institutions are
professional tax preparers.
Professional tax preparers normally maintain a significant amount of
taxpayer information in various files—electronic and paper—that would be treasured for cybercriminals. We have heard of many fellow tax
professionals who have been hit with Ransomware attacks or had their computer
networks hacked.
As tax professionals, we seem to be under constant
assault from cyberhackers.
Did you notice
that when you renewed your PTIN, you had to answer the question about protecting
your data security?
What are your
legal obligations to protect our data and the clients' data?
What can we do
and what should we do?
This CPE Tax course will answer all such questions related to data security for tax professionals.
Following are the major topics covered in this CPE webinar:
