What You Get

What Accounting Firms Get When
Their IT Partner Understands the Profession

Accounting firms face unique IT demands — FTC Safeguards compliance, tax season pressure, client data confidentiality, and remote access for CPAs in the field. Here's exactly what Gradius delivers.

📅
Zero-Downtime During Tax Season
January through April 15th — and every other deadline on your calendar — your systems stay online. Our NOC monitors 24/7 and resolves issues before they become outages, so a missed filing deadline is never an IT problem.
🔒
Client Financial Data Secured at Every Layer
Tax returns, financial statements, payroll records, and banking data — encrypted at rest and in transit, protected by endpoint security, access controls, and a 24/7 SOC watching for threats around the clock.
📋
FTC Safeguards Rule — Built In, Not Bolted On
The FTC Safeguards Rule requires accounting firms and tax preparers handling nonpublic personal financial information to maintain a written information security program. Gradius builds, documents, and maintains your compliance program continuously — not just at audit time.
💻
Practice Software & Tax Applications Supported
QuickBooks, Sage, Thomson Reuters, CCH, Drake, Lacerte, ProSeries, Bill.com, and other accounting and tax applications — supported, maintained, and kept running so your CPAs spend time on client work, not IT tickets.
🌐
Secure Remote Access for CPAs Anywhere
Partners working from home, CPAs visiting client sites, staff working late during busy season — encrypted VPN, cloud access, and Microsoft 365 configured so your team works securely from any location without compromising client data.
💰
Flat-Rate IT Overhead — Per CPA, Per Month
One predictable monthly rate per professional — help desk, monitoring, security, backup, and compliance all included. No per-incident billing, no tax season surcharges, no surprise invoices when you need support most.

Why Accounting Firms Choose Gradius

IT That Understands Accounting
Firms Don't Get Second Chances on Deadlines

A missed deadline costs a client relationship. A breach costs client trust and invites regulatory scrutiny. A compliance gap exposes your firm to FTC enforcement. Gradius is built to make sure none of those happen.

📋
FTC Safeguards Rule — Program Built & Maintained
We build your Written Information Security Program (WISP), document all required controls, conduct annual risk assessments, and maintain your compliance posture continuously — so you're ready if the FTC ever comes knocking.
📅
Tax Season SLA — Elevated Priority January–April
During tax season, your firm's tolerance for downtime is zero. We apply elevated monitoring and priority response protocols January through April 15th — so the busiest period of your year is also the most stable.
🔒
Client Financial Data — Confidential by Design
Every Gradius environment for accounting firms is built with data segregation, role-based access, encrypted communications, and audit logging — so client financial information is protected at every layer, not just at the perimeter.
💰
Per-CPA Flat-Rate Pricing — All-In
One flat monthly rate per professional covers help desk, monitoring, security, backup, compliance, and cloud support. No per-ticket charges, no busy season surcharges, no invoice that surprises you in April when you're already stretched thin.

Common Questions About
Managed IT for Accounting Firms & CPA Practices

Yes — this is a core component of what we do for every accounting firm client. The FTC Safeguards Rule requires accounting firms, tax preparers, and financial service providers to maintain a comprehensive Written Information Security Program (WISP). Gradius builds the WISP, implements all required technical controls — encryption, access controls, multi-factor authentication, monitoring, incident response — conducts annual risk assessments, and maintains documentation. We keep your firm compliant continuously, not just when an audit is scheduled.
Client financial data at Gradius-managed accounting firms is protected through multiple layers: encrypted storage for all files and databases, encrypted email and file transfer for client communications, role-based access controls so staff only access data relevant to their work, multi-factor authentication on all accounts, endpoint protection on every device, and comprehensive audit logging that tracks every access event. For firms using cloud-based tax and accounting software, we configure and monitor security settings, ensuring data is protected in transit and at rest.
Yes. We support the full spectrum of accounting and tax software used by NJ, NY & CT firms — including QuickBooks Desktop and Online, Sage, Thomson Reuters UltraTax CS and Practice CS, CCH Axcess and ProSystem fx, Drake Tax, Lacerte, ProSeries, ATX, Bill.com, and others. Our engineers understand how these applications interact with your infrastructure, network, and cloud environment — so we troubleshoot intelligently and minimize disruption to your workflow.

The goal is simple: nothing goes down during filing season, and if something does, it gets resolved faster than any other time of year.
