1099- MISC Issues for 2011: What You Need to Know LIVE Webcast

PRLog (Press Release) - Aug 11, 2011 - The Knowledge Group/The Knowledge Congress Live Webcast Series, the leading producer of regulatory focused webcasts, announced today that it has scheduled a live webcast entitled “1099- MISC Issues for 2011: What You Need to Know.” This two-hour event is scheduled on Tuesday, October 25, 2011 from 12:00pm - 2:00pm (ET).

Event Synopsis:

2010-2011 proved to be a tumultuous year for taxpayers especially in the area of 1099 reporting requirements. Although the passing of the Comprehensive 1099 Taxpayer Protection and Replacement of Exchange Subsidy Overpayments Act of 2011 nullified some of the thorniest issues, companies, small businesses, and tax payers need to understand the new 1099 requirements left over to stay ahead of the penalty curve. The Knowledge Group is assembling a panel of distinguished professionals and key regulators to help businesses and tax payers understand the most recent developments in 1099 reporting requirements. The speakers will share their expert opinions in a two-hour LIVE Webcast. They will discuss:

• Update on all things 1099 for 2011 and beyond
• Impact of the repealed 1099-MISC reporting requirements expansion on Small Businesses and Land Lords
• Small Business Paperwork Mandate Elimination Act of 2011
• Comprehensive 1099 Taxpayer Protection and Replacement of Exchange Subsidy Overpayments Act of 2011
• And other up to the minute regulatory updates

UHY Advisors’ David Barton Frames Security, Legal Issues in Era of Cloud Computing at Tech Summit

PRLog (Press Release) – Jul 15, 2011 – UHY Advisors’ David Barton, with Amanda Witt of Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough, will deliver the keynote address, “Framing Legal and Security Issues in An Era of Cloud Computing,” at the July 22 Atlanta Technology Summit.  Designed for both business and technical leaders, the event provides guidance on best practice strategies to protect sensitive data. Leading CIOs, security experts and professional advisors will take on the challenges of data security in a world of cloud computing at the gathering, beginning at 8:30 a.m. the Atlanta Marriott Norcross Hotel (475 Technology Parkway, Norcross, 30092).

Cloud computing is gaining momentum as a cost-effective alternative to traditional IT infrastructure, with the market for cloud services forecast to grow to over $241 billion this year. However, a recent study by Accenture shows that IT departments are still reluctant to move to the cloud, due to privacy, lock-in, and security issues.

Barton and Witt will take on the topic of the changing security landscape as they outline concerns and discuss strategies for negotiating best-in-class Service Level Agreements (SLAs) with cloud service providers.

“As more organizations hand off their data to cloud providers, SLAs between providers and consumers are where the rubber meets the road,” says Barton. “Organizations and CIOs need to be anticipating and planning their cloud security road map today for major changes that will take shape over the next one to three years.”
