⌛ Let's take a few minutes to discuss the importance of on-site visits when it comes to information security and compliance audits. ⏳ In today's digital age, conducting audits and ensuring compliance with regulations is more crucial than ever. While remote audits have become more common, there's something special about in-person site visits that can't be replicated. In-person site visits provide auditors and clients the opportunity to more easily collaborate and strategize during the audit process. It allows for better understanding of the organization's operations and infrastructure, facilitating a comprehensive evaluation of its information security and compliance measures. At KirkpatrickPrice, we understand the significance of in-person site visits and their impact on achieving robust security and regulatory compliance. Our experts can guide you through the audit process, helping you navigate the complexities and ensuring your organization meets the highest standards.

In today’s world, companies and their employees have more channels of communication than ever before. The most common include phone calls, emails, and text messages. Most businesses are aware and have shared with their employees the inherent danger that, anything you put in writing can be used against the company in litigation. Quite often, potential conflicts with text messaging can be overlooked. Various concerns regarding text messaging might include misinterpretation, use of informal language in professional conversations, manipulation of sender information or the fact that texts are easy to spread by screenshot. It is also important to recognize that what employees and managers type in an email or a text message can frequently be used to support or undermine a defense. Without educating your employees on what and when it is appropriate to text work conversations, you may be opening your company up to an expensive claim situation and costing yourself a lot of money.  Are you confident that you have addressed this situation within your own company and your employees?
