Are your RPA implementations bypassing traditional IT governance frameworks and creating security risks and operational inefficiencies? As organizations increasingly use Robotic Process Automation (RPA) to automate repetitive, rules-based tasks, your organization must answer this question.

A new publication from the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) addresses critical governance challenges in the rapidly growing area of RPA. The report introduces a structured approach to enhance an organization’s RPA governance and the effectiveness of its internal control systems by integrating RPA governance requirements with the five components of COSO’s Internal Control Integrated Framework (ICIF) – Control Environment, Risk Assessment, Control Activities, Information and Communication, and Monitoring Activities.

Key insights include:

🔷 A new, powerful RPA governance framework designed to help organizations optimize the benefits of automation while mitigating risks through effective internal controls.

🔷 Identifying essential governance areas, including managing security vulnerabilities, ensuring knowledge retention and controlling bot proliferation.

🔷 Strategies for addressing RPA risks, including inconsistent bot deployment, increased security breaches and scaling difficulties.

You can access the full report here:https://www.coso.org/_files/ugd/719ba0_77110b36ddec4b13b8610f2ecd02f55d.pdf

Kaiser Consulting’s experienced technology, risk and internal controls professionals can assist your organization in exploring how to integrate RPA governance into the COSO-ICIF framework to ensure RPA initiatives contribute to overall operational effectiveness while maintaining high governance and risk management standards.

Is your business prepared for what’s ahead? The Year-End 2024 Middle Market Indicator report by the National Center for the Middle Market found that four out of five middle market companies outperformed the previous year. Additionally, the message shared by many middle-market companies is one of strong, albeit potentially slowing, growth during 2025.

Here are some highlights to know from the report:

🔷 Despite a slight softening in revenue growth rates in the latter half of 2024, U.S. middle market businesses experienced another year of strong revenue and employment expansion.

🔷Looking at 2025, middle market leaders remained optimistic, with many planning to reinvest in key areas such as IT and human resources to drive continued success.

🔷Respondents indicated confidence in both the national and local economies growing, while being mindful of potential challenges such as rising costs, talent acquisition and retention, and keeping pace with digital transformation.

🔷Companies must stay informed and may need to adapt to new public policies, which could impact economic conditions moving forward.

It is —an international effort to empower individuals and businesses to respect privacy, safeguard data and enable trust. Whether managing networks hosting personal information, developing the next big app, or even handling paper records, protecting data starts with sound security practices.

Here are several key insights inspired by the Federal Trade Commission's “Start with Security: A Guide for Business” can help your organization prioritize safeguarding personal information today:

✅ Start with security
Every department in your business should factor security into its decision-making. Only collect and retain personal information that is essential for your operations. “No one can steal what you don’t have."

✅ Control access to sensitive data
Limit access to personal information to only those with legitimate business needs. Implement user-specific accounts, password management, and encryption to guard against unauthorized access.

✅ Dispose of data you no longer need
Holding on to outdated or unnecessary personal information increases risk without offering any benefit. Develop strong data retention policies to dispose of excess information securely.

✅ Audit your data collection practices
Utilize trusted resources such as industry best practices, compliance frameworks, and training programs to ensure your organization builds a culture that respects data.

Implementing these steps will help protect sensitive data and foster trust with your customers, employees and stakeholders. You can view the whole guide at: https://www.ftc.gov/business-guidance/resources/start-security-guide-business
