Webinar: How can information Security affect Financial Statements? - Capítulo de San Juan
Description:
Assessing IT controls is a continuous process. Business procedures constantly change as technology continues to evolve, and threats emerge as new vulnerabilities are discovered. Audit methods improve as internal auditors adopt an approach where IT control issues in support of the business objectives are a top priority. Two areas that we will focus:
- CYBERSECURITY: The growing sophistication and variety of cyberattacks continue to wreak havoc on organizations’ brands and reputations, often resulting in disastrous financial impacts. This risk examines whether organizations are sufficiently prepared to manage cyber threats that could cause disruption and reputational harm.
- DATA GOVERNANCE: Organizations’ reliance on data is expanding exponentially, complicated by advances in technology and changes in regulations. This risk examines organizations’ overall strategic management of data: its collection, use, storage, security, and disposition.
Seminar will be on a panel discussion format with actual examples and we will analyze how the IT function needs to play a significant role over risk and the goals imposed by any organization
Objectives:
Upon completion of this course participants should be able to:
- Discuss of current IT risks and how these can impact an organization from a financial perspective.
- Know how a business can improve its IT security from the cost versus benefit viewpoint.
- Learn how the COVID-19 Pandemic has increased the vulnerability towards IT risks and Cybersecurity attacks and how could impair the accuracy and completeness of the Financial Reporting.
- Analyze how the IT function needs to play a significant role over risk and the goals imposed by any organization.
