Description: In the headlong rush to put information and to do business on the Internet and using wide-area networks, the security of information took a back seat. However, recent events regarding the improper exposure of confidential information from online stores, the hacked release of private financial records from e-business centers, and the new wave of cyber-terrorism placed information security law in the forefront. Tax practitioners must understand the new liabilities in order to plot a course ofcompliance and ensure the integrity of tax and accounting information. This course will examine both the criminal and civil aspects of information security law and review the past century's evolution of privacy and how it plays out in a digital communications world. 2.00credit(s)
