SUMMARY:Internal Audit & Quantum Computing Risks: Preparing for the Future
DESCRIPTION:Event description\n\n\n\nThe advent of quantum computing brings unprecedented opportunities and risks. As we enter the “year of harvesting\,” where adversaries may store encrypted data now to decrypt later with quantum computers\, organizations must focus on quantum resilience. Preparing now to respond to this shift can protect financial stability\, ensure compliance\, and safeguard reputation. In this critical landscape of evolving quantum computing risks and regulatory demands to be resilient\, the role of internal audit takes center stage. As part of a layered defense approach\, Internal Audit can serve as the guardian of an organization’s resilience against these risks. \n\n\n\nJoin us on March 26th as we discuss how internal audit can assess and inform the audit committee and the board on the adequacy of your organization’s quantum resiliency processes and controls. \n\n\n\nThe discussion will cover: \n\n\n\n\nWhat quantum computing is\, how it impacts organizations today\, and how to prepare for the risks of the future.\n\n\n\nPreparing for the quantum shift towards post-quantum cryptography (PQC) as a crucial mitigation strategy and what auditors need to know.\n\n\n\nLeading practices internal auditors can consider in their audit plans to evaluate their organization’s quantum resiliency against decryption risks.\n\n\n\nHow internal auditors can tailor existing audit plans to align with quantum resilient audit process using specifically designed risk-based control frameworks.\n\n\n\nLeveraging security tools with technical testing to improve quantum resilience.\n\n\n\nTools internal audit can use to determine the effectiveness of management’s corrective action plans in the event of a quantum-related security incident/data decryption.\n\n\n\n\nDate and time\n\n\n\nWednesday\, March 26\, 2025 \n\n\n\n1:00 PM ET – 2:00 PM ET \n\n\n\nRecommended CPE credits\n\n\n\n1 \n\n\n\nLearning objectives\n\n\n\nIdentify leading practices and considerations to improve resilience against quantum computing risks\, including third-party risk management and data protection policies. \n\n\n\nDescribe how to adapt and respond to evolving regulatory requirements and emerging quantum risks. \n\n\n\nIdentify risk mitigation strategies to manage quantum-related operational risks and build quantum resilience. \n\n\n\nDefine Internal Audit’s role in assessing cryptographic inventory and planning the transition to post-quantum cryptography (PQC). \n\n\n\nRecognize industry audit trends in evaluating an organization’s quantum readiness and resilience against quantum threats.

SUMMARY:Final Currency Rules for Foreign Branches - Section 987 Regulations
DESCRIPTION:Event description\n\n\n\nOver the course of almost 4 decades\, Congress and the IRS have enacted various laws\, regulations\, and guidance to ensure that taxpayers engaging in certain foreign currency transactions do so in a manner that is consistent and reasonable.

SUMMARY:Significant SALT Developments for 2024 and Predictions for 2025
DESCRIPTION:Event description\n\n\n\nAn overriding theme of the developments that we tracked from a state and local tax (SALT) perspective in 2024 related to the scope of the state tax authority. The world of administrative law experienced a dramatic shift with the U.S. Supreme Court’s June 2024 ruling in Loper Bright. Also\, the interpretation of Public Law 86-272 continued to make news\, with several developments focusing on the broader issue of how much power state tax authorities may have to interpret this federal law. The ability of taxpayers to utilize the state net operating loss attribute also received considerable attention in 2024. In California\, many taxpayers are deeply concerned by the controversial chain of events that began with a decision by the Office of Tax Appeals in Microsoft\, and continued with legislation reacting to the decision\, leading to legal challenges to the legislation itself. While no state completely shifted its corporate income tax filing method regime from separate reporting to mandatory combined reporting this past year\, Colorado and South Carolina enacted significant legislation addressing standards governing combined reporting filings. On this webcast\, we will discuss significant SALT developments\, assess predictions made in 2024 and outline expected key SALT developments for 2025.  \n\n\n\nDate and time\n\n\n\nTuesday\, January 28\, 2025 \n\n\n\n2:00 PM ET – 3:30 PM ET \n\n\n\nRecommended CPE credits\n\n\n\n1.5 \n\n\n\nLearning objectives\n\n\n\nIdentify likely occurrences in the SALT world in 2025 \n\n\n\nList major state income tax and indirect tax developments during 2024 \n\n\n\nAnalyze issues faced by state legislatures at the outset of the 2025 legislative sessions
