    Might this be a reason why accounting firms shouldn't be offering Cybersecurity consulting?

    Background: I've noticed a trend where traditional accounting firms are advertise "cybersecurity" consulting expertise and services. It is concerning. Most often they are accountants who have moved into a Cybersecurity consulting role.

    I had a client a few months ago ask me to sit along with them to deal with a cyber security consultant that was being pushed on them. He didn't know up from down.

    Should someone get accounting advice from a non-accountant?
