  These are serious threats to your company’s, even customers’ financial security and data. However, you can prevent them with an effective plan and accounting system. To help, here are the first financial security steps you should take.
  
  1. Know your threats
  The threats outlined above are the overarching threats all modern companies face. However, your individual company faces these threats, as well as unique threats depending on your operation and industry. Be granular with your threat assessments. This will help you pinpoint what kind of functionalities you need in place to keep you secure.
  
  
  
  2. Know your regulations
  Some of your security threats may be covered within business regulations you must follow. These regulations protect you, your customers, and ensure proper accounting standards. Some industries are more heavily regulated in accounting security and reporting regulations, including Government contractors and nonprofits. Review your industry regulations to incorporate them with your other financial security needs.
  
  
  
  3. Establish security requirements
  Work with your team to identify risk factors to create a comprehensive financial security requirements list. As you collaborate, internal controls should be considered too. These play a big role in defining additional functionality you need from an accounting system.
  
  
  
  4. Choose for the right accounting system

The reality is that basic accounting security features like usernames and passwords aren’t enough anymore. Most accounting apps lack in-depth internal security features or are restrictive in their deployment. You’ll need to be able to tailor the security requirements and processes to your specific needs.
