The AICPA offers cybersecurity certificate programs to teach these critical skills you need to become that strategic business partner to your clients in this age of impending cyberattacks.
The new cybersecurity risk management framework creates opportunities for: an entity's management to describe its cybersecurity risk management program; CPAs to perform a consulting engagement to help a client's management develop a description of its cybersecurity risk management program to provide to the board and other internal parties who are interested in that information; and CPAs to perform a consulting engagement known as a "readiness assessment" to help a client identify where its cybersecurity processes and controls may need to be shored up.
Integrative Advisory Services is the CPA, accounting professional and bookkeeper's guide to the future. As technology paves the way for increased self-reliance and DIY financial services, much of the traditional data entry tasks of accounting professionals and bookkeepers will be reduced.
