3. Annual Fraud Conference Draws Record Attendance

Our Chapter’s Annual Fraud Conference was held February 26 th at the Melville Marriott and drew a record 182 attendees for this full day session. The First speaker was Ira McCracken, Chief Examiner, who serves as the Director of the Office of the State Comptroller of New York-Hauppauge Regional Office. Ira briefly shared his experiences as a Senior level audit professional outlining numerous engagements with the NYS Comptroller’s office. He gave insight into audits performed within the State Government including cities, towns, villages, libraries, special operating districts including water, sewers etc. speaking about the role of the Comptrollers offices in identifying and investigating fraud and abuse within the state government. Ira’s brief presentation was not only an introduction to the morning’s session – but also a wake-up call to beware of fraud in our public surroundings.

The day’s featured speaker was Mr. R. Kolman, CPA, CIA, CFE, CISA, who is a highly regarded instructor providing training for auditors, accountants, and business groups. He has designed and presented courses on accounting, auditing and fraud issues for professional and business organizations as well as courses on human relations and public speaking. This background made for a great presentation on the aspects of fraud, and the techniques to both pursue audits – and to know your auditees. Mark spoke on supervising risk-based audits that facilitate fraud detection and prevention, risk mitigation, and corporate and regulatory compliance. Mark shared his experiences to outline analytical and detection skills relating to defalcation schemes, contractor fraud, embezzlements, kickbacks, and misappropriation of funds and other assets. In addition to auditing and investigating suspected fraud, he outlined development of corporate-wide fraud awareness courses for managers and supervisors, and spoke on working closely with organization’s legal groups to assist in their investigations into reported fraud and ethics issues. The day’s program was aided by the providing, on-line ahead of the seminar to registrants, of a complete printed booklet of the presentation. This document is suitable as a reference for fraud work in audits performed by attendees. The inclusion of

Page | 5



pertinent – and humorous – quotations, both in the supplied text and Mark’s talk, made for an interesting and complete day of ‘genuine’ fraud.

Note must be made of the several winners of door-prize drawings - - - all selected had to work to obtain their winnings by answering Fraud questions posed by the session’s Host, Ernie Smith – who is also our Chapter’s President. All of the record number of attendees went home with their ‘winnings’ of 8 CPE credits – and – a well satisfied appetite, as the usual high-quality Marriott breakfast and buffet lunch was outdone by a mid-after noon Dessert break of assorted Cakes, cookies and other great pastry goodies delivered to the conference floor to set the tone for the last few hours of the presentation.

Beware of Fake Organizations Claiming to Offer Certifications

Page | 6


http://links.iia-communications.org/ctt?kn=20&ms=MTI2MzI1NTUS1&r=NjI1NDg0NTM4NzQS1&b=0&j=NjYzODYyOTU0S0&mt=1&rt=0





A recent New York Times article highlights the growing popularity of online organizations selling phony academic degrees and certifications. Con artists have established hundreds of websites, many of them fictitious universities claiming to offer online education, diplomas, certifications, and accreditations. A growing number of well-intentioned professionals have fallen victim to this type of scam.

The IIA reminds candidates that all global IIA certifications and qualifications (CIA, CCSA, CFSA, CGAP, CRMA, and QIAL) are only granted by The IIA and can only be obtained by sitting for the exam(s)/case studies at an approved Pearson VUE test center. The IIA urges candidates to beware of these scams and investigate any suspicious claims. A partial list of phony organizations claiming to offer certifications and diplomas can be found on the New York Times website .

Visit The IIA's Certifications page or contact your local Institute to learn more about The IIA’s certification and qualification programs and legitimate requirements. If you are approached or contacted by an organization you believe may be selling phony certification, please contact Alissa DeMeglio at [email protected]. You may also contact IIA Customer Relations to confirm the legitimacy of your certifications: [email protected].

5. Your Input Needed for Program Topic Selection for 2016 – 2017 Chapter Year

Our Chapter’s board members are already in the process of selecting topics and speakers for the 2016-2017 Chapter year. Topics and speakers selected will be presented at our Chapter’s Monthly Meetings September 2016 thru April 2017. However, this selection process must be finalized when the program for the Chapter calendar year is released in August.

WE NEED YOUR IDEAS ON PROGRAMMING TOPICS – As the selection process takes considerable time and effort to maintain our high quality seminar presentations we need your input as soon as possible ! - - - A big part of the program quality is the selection of presentation subjects that are new and important to the auditing profession. Capturing these new topics in time to plan seminars is important – and Chapter member help is needed to identify quality topics. Please let us know topics that are of interest to you. Topics can be related to your work environment, needed for certification completion – or – merely of general interest to you. Whatever your interest – please let us know your choices - - - By the way, if you know of a qualified speaker on a topic - forward their name also.

8. L.I. Chapter’s Information Technology Conference Held March 18th

Our Chapter’s Annual Information Technology (IT) Conference was held Friday, March 18, 2016 at the Melville Marriot. This full-day session drew an audience of over 140 and provided some interesting ‘Take-Aways’ for all in addition to the 8 CPE credits granted to every conference attendee.

Event Summary: The focus this year was on how technology developments dramatically change the way we all do business – in particular information management and technology assurance trends in 2016. Tremendous opportunities exist – but need to be managed. Daily we continue to read and hear about the challenges faced by both businesses and individuals in confronting these challenges. Every business decision today has an IT component and the management of technology risk is core to every initiative. Our annual IT Conference discussed strategies that Internal Auditors can use in counseling their stakeholders in navigating these challenges. This year’s conference enabled attendees to hear about the latest developments and practices as seen by both industry players and expert consultants. This enabled attendees to not only gain the perspective of what they should be doing but what actually is working and happening at metro area New York Internal Audit Departments. Additionally, attendees gained the opportunity to enhance their analytic approaches to deliver professional services to their organizations.

The conference began with a briefing from the current Chairman of the AICPA’s Information Management and Technology Assurance Executive Committee (IMTAEC) on the IMATEC’s activities that impact internal auditors. Executive committees are the standing parent group responsible for policy-setting in an area of activity at the AICPA. Specifically, the IMTAEC’s objectives include providing

Page | 12



guidance for members practicing in information management and technology assurance, and determining Institute technical policies regarding information management and technology assurance. The focus was on current initiatives such as Cybersecurity, Service Organization Control Reports and IT Audit Practices. Regarding the latter, the presentation discussed developments relating to Continuous Monitoring/Data Analysis and the role of technology on the “Future Audit.” Also briefly reviewed were joint research activities with academia and evolving skill expectations for auditors entering the profession.

8. L.I. Chapter’s Information Technology Conference ~ continued ~

The IT Conference Speakers List was comprised of distinguished experts in the IT field. Our thanks to all of them, and special recognition to the chairman and organizer of this year’s conference, Joel Lanz, CPA, CISA, CISM, CISM, CISSP, CFE; Principal, Joel Lanz, CPA, P.C. Joel is also on the Board of the Long Island Chapter, and served as the moderator as well as a featured speaker for the conference.

Following is a list of speakers who presented at this year’s IT Conference: Panagiotis Dimitris Bantileskas, CPA/CFF/CITP, CFE Manager, Nawrocki Smith LLP; Dr. Kees Leune, CISSP GSLC CISM GCFA GCIH OSCP Assistant Professor – Adelphi University; Richard Trezza, CISSP Systems Engineering Manager, Palo Alto Networks; and, Rob Zanella ( filling in for Vikas Dutta) CA. A detailed background of our speakers is presented in the conference information Emailed to all Chapter members earlier this month.

An abbreviated summary of the day’s IT Conference session included the following IT topical subjects:Information Management and Technology Assurance Trends in 2016; Data Analytics with Microsoft Excel; Challenges Confronted by an Information Security Officer; Managing Cyber Security Risk with Next Generation Firewalls; and, Cybersecurity - Balancing the needs of the Board with the capabilities of Internal Auditor. Noteworthy of these sessions were the “Take-Aways” aside from the knowledge gained by attending. All speakers prepared written outlines of their slides//talks that were Emailed to registered attendees before the conference. All materials are Technical-Reference documents that will prove useful in audits – and provide up to date supplements for existing IT documentation. Examples of these ‘Take-Aways’ are: The Data Analytics with Excel presentation had a workbook of over 130 pages for reference – and – a one page summary of ‘key board shortcuts for excel’ was handed out at the meeting – this info an amazing time saver; The Next Generation Firewalls Talk had an informative pre-

Page | 13



meeting handout – but also included a book handed out at the Conference titled – “Second Generation Firewalls for Dummies”. All in all IT was a great conference this year !

Additional ‘Take-Aways’ included Joel’s IT advisory remarks and humor; Several gift certificate raffles throughout the day; and, a grand-prize of an iPad raffled at day’s end. SPECIAL NOTE: Since the IT conference was one of the last two of our 25th Anniversary chapter program year, we raffled off iPad Air equipment and gift cards at this conference – We will also raffle off iPad Air equipment and gift cards at our next conference on April 29 th. You must be present at the drawings to win your prize!
