Cyber Security Series: Building my Hardware and Software Asset Inventories
Join us for the first webinar in our "2025 Tax Office Cyber Security Series", designed to help accounting and tax firms enhance their security posture and protect their sensitive data. In this session, we’ll focus on the critical foundation of cybersecurity: creating accurate and comprehensive inventories of your hardware and software assets.
Why does this matter? Simply put, you can’t protect what you don’t know you have. Unmanaged or unknown devices and applications can create vulnerabilities, making it easier for cybercriminals to exploit your systems. Building an inventory is the first step toward identifying potential risks and ensuring all your systems are properly secured.
In this webinar, we’ll break down:
What asset inventories are and why they’re essential.
Learn why keeping track of your firm’s computers, servers, mobile devices, software, and cloud applications is a vital first step in cybersecurity.
Simple steps to get started.
Discover practical tips and tools to identify and document your hardware and software, even if you don’t have a technical background.
How this ties into broader cybersecurity practices.
Understand how maintaining accurate inventories helps you comply with best practices like the CIS Controls and prepares your firm for stronger defenses.
Whether you’re new to securing your data or just looking to refine your processes, this webinar is for you. We’ll provide straightforward guidance that’s easy to understand and implement, with a focus on practical outcomes for small to mid-sized accounting and tax firms. Don’t miss this opportunity to lay the groundwork for better security and peace of mind!
The webinar is only available to monthly subscribers.
