Finance Keeps the Lights on With Kiteworks for Secure Sharing of Financial Information

Securing Financial Data: Stella Miao on Kiteworks’ Role in Protecting Confidential Information

Stella Miao is a Controller at Kiteworks. She monitors and manages the daily operations that impact finance including payroll, accounting, reporting, audit, and tax. “All data in finance is very confidential and sensitive. We utilize the Kiteworks platform to protect our data security such as payroll transmit data, commissions, stock options, financial data for tax filing, communication with governments, and tax forms. The Kiteworks platform makes us more efficient,” Stella says.

Secure sharing of all confidential financial information is a must for any business. With Kiteworks, businesses can ensure they are protecting their financial data while also increasing efficiency and staying compliant with industry regulations.

Corporate finance professionals handle non-public information daily. When an employee loses their laptop containing sensitive finance data or maliciously emails a draft quarterly earnings release to a securities trader, it places the whole business at risk. The Kiteworks platform helps corporate finance professionals mitigate the risk of data leaks by controlling access to financial documents, even in the event of a lost or stolen device.

Sending the public accountant a cash flow projection or a division head the P&L statement using a cloud file sharing service, such as OneDrive or Dropbox, can put a business at risk. With the Kiteworks platform, corporate finance professionals share financial documents securely and in compliance with internal policies as well as industry regulations.
