Why Accounting Firms Need Specialized IT
Accounting and financial services firms face unique IT security requirements β IRS Publication 4557, GLBA Safeguards Rule, and SOC 2 compliance all impose specific technical controls. A data breach exposing client financial data isn't just an IT problem; it's a regulatory and reputational catastrophe.
