MMIT is built for tax firms, CPA practices, and accounting offices. We close the IT, cybersecurity, and compliance gaps that put your firm and your clients at risk.
You handle sensitive financial data for dozens of clients — without the IT resources of a large firm. That makes you an attractive target.
Every tax preparer must maintain a Written Information Security Plan and meet FTC Safeguards mandates. Most small firms are not there yet.
A single CPA firm holds Social Security numbers, bank details, and income records for hundreds of clients. That is exactly what cybercriminals want most.
Phishing spikes during filing season. One compromised employee account can freeze your EFIN and halt your entire practice.
Large firms have dedicated IT and compliance staff. Small and mid-size accounting practices do not, and attackers know it.
Tax and accounting firms need more than antivirus. MMIT delivers IT management, cybersecurity essentials, and compliance and training. The three areas where accounting practices are most exposed.
Remote monitoring, patch management, helpdesk, device inventory, and endpoint hardening. Your practice runs. We handle the technology.
Advanced endpoint protection, 24/7 security monitoring, MFA, encrypted drives, firewall management, and phishing focused training. Every layer the IRS and FTC expect.
WISP creation and annual maintenance, FTC Safeguards documentation, staff security training with audit-ready records, and a written compliance summary for auditors.
Encrypted, automated daily backup of all firm data with tested restores. The IRS requires it and available with MMIT.
A pre-season security review every January confirming all controls are active, with heightened monitoring during peak filing months.
Endpoint detection, monitoring, and SIEM coverage extended to your servers, plus business-grade firewall and network management.
The IRS requires every tax professional to implement six specific security controls. Most small firms are missing at least two. MMIT covers all six and documents them for your compliance file.
MMIT deploys advanced endpoint detection on every device. It goes well beyond basic antivirus, with real-time threat blocking and 24/7 monitoring.

The IRS and FTC do not just require security controls. They require written proof that your controls exist and are maintained. MMIT helps you build and keep every required document.
Required by the IRS for all tax preparers. Your WISP documents how your firm identifies risks, protects client data, responds to incidents, and trains employees. The IRS requests it during preparer audits.
MMIT creates and annually maintains your WISP.
The FTC classifies tax preparers as financial institutions. The updated Safeguards Rule requires documented risk assessments, a designated security coordinator, vendor oversight records, and annual program evaluations. Fines reach $50,120 per violation per day.
MMIT documents your controls for FTC compliance.
The FTC Safeguards Rule requires you to document that your IT provider meets security standards. Most firms do not have this on file. MMIT provides a written attestation confirming our controls meet Safeguards requirements.
MMIT provides written vendor documentation for your file.
IRS Publication 4557 and the FTC Safeguards Rule both require a documented plan for responding to data breaches, including IRS notification and client communication procedures. Without one, a breach creates compounding regulatory exposure.
MMIT includes incident response documentation in our compliance package.
Your WISP must document that employees receive regular security training and you need records showing who was trained and when. MMIT tracks completion automatically and generates audit-ready reports for your compliance file.
MMIT tracks and documents all staff training automatically.
The FTC Safeguards Rule requires financial institutions to evaluate and document their security program at least annually. Most small firms have no record of this. MMIT delivers a formal quarterly security review with a written report.
MMIT delivers and documents your required annual program review.
