BDO Malta partners with ISACA Malta Chapter to build awareness in IT security and compliance
BDO Malta is delighted to announce its sponsorship of the ISACA Malta Chapter – the worldwide association of IT professionals practicing in the areas of information systems assurance and security, enterprise governance and IT management and ITrelated risk and compliance. Isaca is also the leading global provider of knowledge, certifications, community, advocacy and education for professionals who wish to pursue a career in these areas.
This sponsorship reflects BDO Malta’s commitment to foster a culture of knowledge sharing and professional development across different verticals. After launching its Technology Advisory & Assurance team, BDO Malta is furthering its footprint and customer base in business-critical areas related to IT Compliance, Risk Advisory, Regulatory and Assurance, as well as Managed Solutions and Outsourcing.
One of the latest achievements for BDO Malta is the recognition by the Malta Digital Innovation Authority as Systems Auditor for innovative technology arrangements in the DLT space. BDO Malta is one of the first advisory and assurance firms to receive this recognition by the MDIA, allowing BDO to conduct audits of blockchain applications, smart contracts and any technology which runs on an innovative technology arrangement.
Mark Attard, chief Executive officer at BDO Malta stated: “We are very pleased to enter into this partnership with Isaca Malta Chapter. We hope that our support will translate into more knowledge transfer within a community of like-minded professionals, focussed on business-critical areas such as cybersecurity, IT compliance, regulatory processes and enterprise management. Technology is constantly changing our landscape, giving rise to huge transformations in the way we conduct business. This is an unprecedented reality which is presenting several challenges in addition to the burden of increased regulatory obligations. This is where we step in – BDO Malta is equipped with the right knowledge, professional people and digital tools to assist businesses in demystifying complex, business-critical areas of IT, risk and compliance and ensuring the smooth running of their operations.”
BDO’s Technology Advisory Practice comes from a diverse range of backgrounds and includes both experienced IT and Operations professionals. Its team works closely with partners and clients to deliver sustainable business results scaled and tailored to the unique dynamics of the industries and the individual needs of each business. Although different for each organisation, optimal IT solutions align risk protection investments with digital asset value to improve performance and efficiency.
The Isaca Malta Chapter was officially formed in 2005 and is a non-profit and independent association which is run by volunteers who are Isaca members. The aim of the Chapter is to provide members education, resource sharing, professional networking and a host of other benefits on a local level.
