INDUSTRIES / ACCOUNTANTS & TAX PREPARERS / NYC + LONG ISLAND

IT support for
accountants & tax preparers.

Tax season is no time for a dead laptop or a hacked inbox. We keep accounting offices fast, backed up, and covered on the security plan the IRS asks preparers to keep.

Tax preparers are covered by the FTC Safeguards Rule, and the IRS expects every preparer to keep a written information security plan (WISP). The plan only matters if the setup behind it is real: multi-factor sign-in on email and tax software, encrypted laptops, a safe way to collect client documents, and backups you can restore in the middle of March.

We build that setup, write it down in plain English, and keep it running through the busy season with priority support when a deadline is on the line.

What we set up for accountants & tax preparers

  • A written security plan that matches reality. We help you put together your WISP and make sure every item in it is actually in place.
  • Safe document collection. A client portal or secure upload instead of tax returns sitting in email attachments.
  • Multi-factor everywhere. Email, tax software, and remote access all behind a second sign-in step, the single biggest protection against account takeover.
  • Season-proof computers. Fast, patched workstations and a spare plan, so one failure doesn't stop the office in April.
  • Backups for client data. Encrypted, offsite, and tested, including QuickBooks company files and tax software data.
