<p>Knowing your obligations is one thing but implementing effective cyber security strategies is where many firms struggle.</p> <p>In this episode of TaxYak, Senior Tax Trainer George Housakos is joined by Caillin Goss, Jen Pascarl and Jacques Louw from Priority Networking and Greg Gardiner from Count.</p> <p>That’s why in this session, we will walk through a practical framework built around 20 key questions designed to test your firm’s cyber security posture.</p> <p>These questions cover areas such as:</p> <ul> <li>Governance and accountability</li> <li>Staff awareness and training</li> <li>Access controls and identity management</li> <li>Backup and disaster recovery</li> <li>Incident response planning</li> <li>Vendor and third-party risk</li> <li>And ongoing monitoring and improvement</li> </ul> <p>When these strategies and controls are successfully implemented, they don’t just help protect your business, they also support your ability to meet increasingly onerous compliance requirements.</p> <p>Think of this as a health check for your firm’s cyber maturity: a way to identify gaps, prioritise actions, and build a more resilient and secure operating environment.</p> <p>And as mentioned earlier, if you’d like a copy of our Cyber Security Checklist to support this process, please feel free to contact Cailin Goss at PNET.</p> <p><strong>Special Offer:</strong></p> <p><a href="https://taxbanter.com.au/offer/"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="alignnone wp-image-1013399 size-full" src="https://taxbanter.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/cyber-security-assessment.png" alt="Cyber Security Assessment" width="710" height="172" srcset="https://taxbanter.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/cyber-security-assessment.png 710w, https://taxbanter.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/cyber-security-assessment-300x73.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 710px) 100vw, 710px" /></a><br /> Priority Networking is offering all Tax Yak listeners a <span style="color: #0000ff;"><a style="color: #0000ff;" href="https://taxbanter.com.au/offer/">$2,400 comprehensive cyber security assessment</a></span>.
