As Presented from ACFE Global Conference
The dashboards are clean. The reports are signed off. The risk heatmap is mostly green. And yet, fraud is hiding in plain sight. Modern organizations have grown too complex for traditional controls to keep up – and bad actors know it. In this eye-opening session, we’ll pull back the curtain on how operational sprawl, shadow systems, and over-trusted automation create massive blind spots for leadership. You’ll walk away questioning how much you really know about what lies beneath the surface and what steps you must take to protect your organization from preventable disasters.
Learning Objectives:
By the end of this session, participants will be able to:
- Identify key breakdown points in modern control environments caused by system complexity and decentralization.
- Recognize how IPE, automation, and AI amplify governance blind spots when misunderstood.
- Distinguish between perceived and actual control strength using real-world fraud examples.
- Develop questions executives should ask to surface “unknown unknowns” across their operations and tech stack.
Registration will open on Tuesday, August 25, 2026
