Tax Season and Closing Deadlines
Accounting firms face heavy workloads every tax season, and law firms work to court and closing deadlines. These are exactly the times when an outage hurts most and when attackers send the most convincing phishing. We schedule maintenance away from peak periods, check backups and security before busy seasons and prioritize support when deadlines are close.
The Technical Side
- FTC Safeguards Rule controls: MFA, encryption, access reviews, logging and a written information security program (technical content)
- Encrypted email and client portals for tax returns and legal documents
- Impersonation protection and external sender tags
- Managed devices with encryption and remote wipe
- Tax and practice software hosting and backup coordination with vendors
- Pre-season readiness checks for backups, patches and security
