SOX Whistleblowers Protection

Cynthia Cooper, the internal auditor who unearthed the WorldCom accounting scandal has written a  book about her investigation — Extraordinary Circumstances.  Cooper writes that she was following the lack of information.  Time and again, as she worked her way through the accounting records, she encountered lingo that sounded authoritative, but proved to be completely phony. Cooper knew better. When an accounting piece of financial reporting didn’t make sense to her, she asked about it — even if it meant questioning two of the most powerful executives in the country at the time: Bernie Ebbers, CEO, and Scott Sullivan,  CFO.

The book, to be published by John Wiley & Sons, should be a must read for SOX Whistleblowers looking for help and protection from the Act.
