This is going to be a very important, very educational episode, my friends. Lately, I've been getting a lot of questions about cybersecurity and what you need to invest in as a bookkeeper, but seeing as I'm not an expert in that...I decided to call one in!

On today's episode, I've invited Brent Panell, CEO of ControlAltProtect, to chat with me about the importance of cybersecurity, the true level of risk bookkeepers are experiencing, and why we need to get serious about cybersecurity.

You may think your business is too small to be a target for hackers…but unfortunately, you're wrong. Here's what you need to know about cybersecurity as a bookkeeper…and where you can go to protect yourself!
