Cyber Security For Accountants

Cyber security is essential to accountancy operations. Keeping information secure is paramount and ensuring regulations are followed can be the difference between continued success or total failure.

We assist organisations with staying in line with industry standards and the requirements of bodies such as the ICAEW.

Cyber security is a driving factor shaping organisational reputation, especially for accountancy firms handling sensitive financial data. So demonstrating your security approach is vital.

The ICAEW recommends that Cyber Essentials is vital for all accountancy-based organisations. And our in-house Cyber Essentials assessors are on hand to assist with consultancy and accreditation, ensuring you have the necessary protection in place.

Switching IT Provider

Switching IT providers can be a daunting task for any accounting firm, as it involves transferring critical technology infrastructure and support services from one provider to another. However, is often a necessary step towards enhancing your organisation’s technological capabilities and achieving your business goals.

One of the primary concerns organisations have when considering switching IT providers is the time and resources required to complete the transition. This is where a reliable IT provider can help make the process as stress-free and seamless as possible, ensuring minimal disruption to your daily operations.

IT Support For Accountants FAQ

What is cloud computing and how can it benefit accountancy firms?

Cloud computing is the delivery of computing services over the internet, including storage, software, and processing power. Accountancy firms can benefit from the added security that comes with data being hosted off-site in secure data centres. Additionally, data can be accessed from anywhere, reducing hardware costs, and improving scalability.

Can you offer a backup solution for accountancy firms?

Yes. In case of hardware failure, cyberattacks, or natural disasters, a backup solution can prevent data loss and minimise downtime. It also helps accountancy firms comply with data retention and privacy regulatory requirements.

Can you support remote working for accountants?

Our remote working solutions aim to improve processes for users working from home or on the go. Virtual desktops allow accountants to have all the data and resources they have in the office, on hand wherever they go.

How can your IT services help us remain cost-efficient in our operations?

Outsourcing IT support allows organisations to only pay for the exact level of support they require. Feel free to scale your support package up or down as needed.
