In the business world, it can be difficult to know who to trust in regard to cybersecurity. In many cases, businesses are simply opting to not trust any device, friend or foe, when it comes to their data security. This type of zero-trust model is slowly becoming the norm, and it’s one that your organization might consider moving forward.

When you really think about it, CPA firms are really the ideal target for the financially-motivated cybercriminal. This means that these firms should be particularly on their guard against online threats. This requires an awareness of how these threats are shaped.

Let’s take a few moments to consider how today’s most prevalent threats would target an accounting firm and what can be done to help stop them.

How often over the past year or two have you gone to replace a device on your infrastructure, only to find that the price has increased or the device simply isn’t available? This is an issue with the current hardware shortage, particularly for business electronics. Since businesses depend on technology, it becomes critical that you understand how this shortage impacts your day-to-day operations.

The Bay State has some of the most comprehensive data privacy laws in place, with additional legislation being debated at the time of this writing.
