What you’ll learn at this webinar:

  • How phishing, account takeover, and payment fraud slip through the cracks between IT security and payment security in hybrid firms

  • What a genuinely connected approach to secure access and secure payments looks like in practice

  • Practical steps to start closing the gap at your own firm


The hidden cost of disconnected security

Most accounting firms treat IT security and payment security as separate problems,  owned by separate people, solved with separate tools. That gap is exactly where remote and hybrid firms get exposed to phishing, account takeover, and payment fraud, often without anyone noticing until it's too late.

8am CPACharge, the payment processing solution from 8am, gives firms a single, secure place to accept and manage client payments with confidence.

Rightworks builds on that by securing the access side of the equation, managing who can log in, what they can touch, and how identity and permissions are controlled across the firm, so payments and access aren't governed by two disconnected systems.


What a connected approach actually looks like

When integrated, CPACharge and Rightworks give firms visibility into risk across the whole hybrid workflow, not just one piece of it. That means fewer blind spots between who can log in, what they can touch, and how money moves.

In this fireside chat, SMEs from both companies walk through where these blind spots show up in real firm operations, and what firms can do today to start closing them—no product demo, just practitioner-level insight.
