    A case for fraud risk maturity assessment

    October 18, 2021 / No Comments

    What do you think is the number one mistake many fraud examiners, investigators and other governance champions make? The number one mistake is not something you may think. As a fraud examiner, I love to overwhelm suspects with watertight evidence. For some reason, I interview suspects to the point they stop looking me straight in the eyes. It is like an art. Knowing the facts of the case at hand. Taking the statement of the suspect. Collecting evidence. And having the suspects punched in the gut by their alibi. In 2013, I was investigating a case in which a woman…

    July 16, 2020 / No Comments

    The pain…

    March 6, 2020 / No Comments

    “I feel your pain. Now let us ease the pain.” When you are in control of things, you can say those statements. It is cross-examination time. And you are all vulnerable. Blindfolded, in a darkroom, after a cold shower with noise all over the place. Then, you feel like snakes are crawling around you. It was done intentionally, As you entered the room, you passed by a cage full of several snakes, with the words “poisonous” written all over it. You entered the room. You got blindfolded and handcuffed. But you can hear. It is intentional that you should hear.…

    The cunning accountant, part 1

    August 13, 2019 / No Comments

    Beautiful, self-motivated and full of energy, Jane Kugonza was an exceptional accountant with a sense of style. She held the latest iPhone model and had a particular liking for red stylish shoes with matching lipstick and leather bags. A certified chartered accountant, Jane was an envy of those who knew her: the boys wanted some piece of her while the ladies envied the attention she commanded. However, her beauty and false innocent look led to the collapse of a business in a Ugx. 3 billion fraud scheme. Jane worked with two assistants, Julius Okiring and Maria Atukunda in her finance…

    No system is unhackable. That is the hackers’ credo. And it is accurate. There is no security system that cannot be breached. The catchphrase these days is “military-grade” encryption. The truth is, the military-grade security system is managed by human beings! It goes without saying that what one human being can do. Another can do better. The good guys, the IT professionals, and cybersecurity experts are always in the comfort of their offices. They can easily sleep off. However, the bad guys are highly motivated. So what is hacking and how do hackers do it? Hacking is a breach of…
