If you own a company, you are juggling multiple responsibilities on any given day. You must work hard to deliver a quality product or service, keep your customers happy and ensure you can make payroll. It is a lot to manage, but you take pride in your business and want to see it thrive. However, you must also protect your business. And one essential way to do that is to prevent fraud.
When you read the news, you probably have seen horror stories about bookkeepers who have embezzled from companies, taking off with thousands or even millions of dollars and leaving the owners high and dry. You have probably also heard about competitors using unethical tactics to steal business. Some have poached logos and assumed identities of other companies.
