Cybersecurity threats are up. The pandemic has driven trends in digitalization that have made cybersecurity even more important for creating and protecting value for small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

This event will cover cybersecurity lessons learned during the pandemic, practical advice for professional accountants to stay ahead of (or keep up with) threats, how to meet and anticipate demand for cybersecurity services, and opportunities for the accountancy profession.

The speakers in this webinar will provide a range of insights into how cybersecurity issues are affecting SMEs and the profession – and how they can respond.
