386  |  Webcast  |  Basic  |  Scheduled

Description

Most organizations have many of the basic controls required to operate in place. However, a notably percentage of these companies do not have important measures that can help enhance security, productivity and the quality of information available for decision making. In this session, we work to identify areas where important internal control measures are needed. We spend time explaining why these controls should be created and show, in detail, some specific controls that would be beneficial if utilized. Those wishing to strength an internal control system should consider this session strongly.
