In the latest episode of FICPA CEO Conversations, Shelly Weir is joined by two of the top names in cybersecurity to discuss the importance of written information security plans - otherwise known as WISPs.
Val King is the CEO of Ascent Portal, who we’re pleased to welcome as our newest FICPA Premier Partner, serving our members with all their risk assessment and compliance needs.
And Christophe Reglat is the President & CEO of Coaxis International, as well as a longtime friend of the FICPA.
In this informative discussion, Shelly, Val and Christophe address:
- How and why its necessary build a WISP
- What the Safeguards Rule means for CPAs
- Why accounting firms are top targets for bad actors
- And why WISPs are especially useful to Florida CPAs during hurricane season
We also encourage you to take part in this survey from Ascent Portal, which will help you consider where you are in your cybersecurity journey and determine what next steps need to be taken.
