Listen "FF5 #76 - A Cyber Risk That's Simple to Fix"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Friday Fiduciary Five, Eric Dyson talks about a common and easily fixable cybersecurity risk in retirement plans: participants who have not set up user IDs and passwords for their accounts. This oversight is the most frequent cause of cyber breaches, not the fault of plan sponsors or record keepers. Eric shares an anecdote about an employee discovering unauthorized 401(k) loan deductions, highlighting the importance of security measures like user IDs, passwords, and two-factor authentication. He urges plan sponsors and advisors to communicate the necessity of these security steps to participants to prevent cyber breaches.Connect with Eric Dyson: Website: https://90northllc.com/Phone: 940-248-4800Email: [email protected] LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/401kguy/ The information contained herein is general in nature and is provided solely for educational and informational purposes.It is not intended to provide a specific recommendation of any type of product or service discussed in this presentation or to provide any warranties, financial advice, or legal advice.The specific facts and circumstances of all qualified plans can vary, and the information contained in this podcast may or may not apply to your individual circumstances or to your plan or client plan's specific circumstances.
