Frequently asked questions

Do CPA firms need managed IT?

Yes. CPA firms handle sensitive financial and tax data, rely heavily on seasonal uptime, and often need stronger controls for clients, insurers, and regulatory expectations.

Can PBM help with FTC Safeguards expectations?

PBM can help CPA firms identify practical IT and security controls, documentation needs, access controls, backups, and monitoring that support safeguards readiness.

What should CPA firms secure first?

Start with Microsoft 365 MFA, endpoint protection, backup testing, password management, secure remote access, and access review for seasonal staff.
