Event Description
One of the largest challenges organizations face today is protecting financial information from payments fraud. In most instances, the question is not will you be the target of these attempts, but whether they will succeed. What can your local government do to help prevent this from happening? Join us for a discussion around the trends and most common fraud attempts we are seeing across the government space. We will talk through check fraud, ACH fraud, cybercrime and best practices to protect your organization.
Learning Objectives: Participants completing this session should be able to:
- Learn the different ways check fraud happens;
- Discover ways to prevent Check and ACH Fraud; and
- Know what to do when your local government has a Ransomware attack.
