Silver Linings. The Rewards of The Cloud with Martin Capuder of ConsultantC.

"You can look at cloud solutions as a smorgasbord. For each feature that you implement, you have to understand the risk AND the benefit of each of these decisions."

GBD78 October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month in the USA and Cybersecurity Month in the EU. That's why we're focusing this month's episodes on data-defence, privacy and effective protection against online attacks. Starting us off, an in-depth look at the benefits of moving one's business to the cloud. L. Martin Capuder of Florida-based ConsultantC is one of the best qualified experts around, and he explains to AICPA & CIMA's Kyle Hannan how risk-management, effective internal controls, and security-implementation can ensure a successful  migration to the 'cloud'.
