Episode 207: Guide Star - Cybersecurity for ESOPs

Bret Keisling is joined by Evan Rice, VP of 100% ESOP Guide Star [www.guide-star.com]. Cybersecurity is more critical than ever, and Guide Star’s expertise includes the special fiduciary risks that ESOPs face in keeping their IT departments as safe as possible. Guide Star is a division of CCI Systems, also 100% ESOP. Evan explains how they assess client risks and provide a blueprint for keeping companies current on critically important and vulnerable systems. Guide Star focuses on small- to mid-size ESOPs, and understands the particular needs of ESOP fiduciaries, including Department of Labor guidelines on cyber security for retirement plans, what insurers look for, and how a cyberattack can hurt value and put ESOP fiduciaries and trustees at risk.
