Make your security plan match
your actual controls.

Every paid tax preparer must maintain a written information security plan. Most small firms have a template. Before tax season, let's make sure the plan, the email security, the access controls, and the backups actually line up — and are documented.

“A written security plan that doesn't match what's running in the office protects no one. The check takes 30 minutes and you keep the findings either way.”

We understand your challenges

Your industry is
different.

Generic IT providers treat every business the same. We don't. We know the tools, the regulations, and the daily challenges specific to your industry.

Tax season IT failures

Your systems can't afford downtime from January through April. Server crashes, slow networks, and software issues during peak season cost you clients and revenue you can't recover.

Sensitive client data exposure

You handle Social Security numbers, bank accounts, and financial records for hundreds of clients. A single breach triggers notification requirements, lawsuits, and loss of client trust.

Multi-location access headaches

Partners working from home, staff at satellite offices, remote preparers — everyone needs fast, secure access to the same client files and applications without VPN nightmares.

Scaling staff without scaling IT costs

Seasonal hires need full system access on day one and secure offboarding when they leave. Adding users shouldn't require new servers or expensive license overhauls.

Compliance & Regulations

IRS compliance, handled.

The IRS requires tax professionals to implement specific data security measures. We build and maintain the technical controls that keep you compliant — and we document everything for auditors.

IRS Publication 4557 and FTC Safeguards Rule — a written information security plan whose technical controls match what is actually deployed, with evidence
MFA on email and tax software, encryption, access reviews, and departed-staff offboarding — the controls the plan has to name and you have to be able to show
AICPA SOC 2 readiness — Technical controls, monitoring, and audit trails for SOC compliance
State Board of Accountancy requirements — State-specific data protection and retention obligations
Cyber insurance compliance — MFA, endpoint protection, backup verification, and incident response documentation

FAQ

Questions from
cpas & accounting.

Six evidence questions: your written security plan (version, owner, last review), MFA on email and tax software, where client data actually lives, the latest backup result and the last dated restore test, whether former and seasonal staff still have access, and how remote access works and who administers it. Each is recorded as observed, reported, or unknown. You get three prioritized actions in writing. No passwords collected, nothing changed, no obligation.

Yes. Eight-plus years supporting accounting and tax applications in small firms. We handle installation, updates, integration with Microsoft 365, and troubleshooting, and we coordinate with the vendor when the problem is on their side.

We set up cloud-based infrastructure that scales with your team. Adding seasonal users takes minutes, not days. When tax season ends, we scale back down so you're not paying for unused licenses.

Yes. The first paid engagement is usually a fixed-price sprint: a plan written for your firm, the technical controls it names actually implemented, one demonstrated restore, staff handover, and an evidence register. Gaps that remain are documented, not papered over.

Monitoring and patching are there to prevent it. If something fails anyway, critical issues get a direct response from Alex with a target of under 15 minutes during business hours, and tested backups are what make recovery a known quantity rather than a hope.

Absolutely. We set up secure cloud access to your applications and files from any location. MFA, encrypted connections, and mobile device management keep everything secure.

Predictable monthly per-user pricing. No surprise invoices, no hourly billing. Tax season support is included — we don't charge extra when you need us most.
