Busy-season readiness
Updates, hardware checks and planning done before the rush, not during it.
Deadlines leave little room for slow computers, locked accounts or missing files. Plan support, security and backups around the times your team is busiest.
Accounting firms, tax preparers and other professional offices handle financial and personal information for every client. They also work to deadlines that do not move when a computer fails or an account gets locked.
Tax professionals are expected to protect client data, including keeping a written information security plan. We can help with the technology side: protected sign-ins, secure file sharing, updated devices, tested backups and documentation of the safeguards in place.
