Axcede keeps tax software, file storage and remote access running when your team can least afford an interruption, and helps you evidence the safeguards you are expected to have. ### Tax And Accounting Software We support the tax preparation, accounting and practice software your firm runs, including the older versions you have to keep for prior years. ### Security Plan Support A written information security plan is expected of tax professionals. We document and maintain the technical controls behind yours. ### Client Data Protection Encryption, access control and monitoring for the financial records and identifying information clients trust you with. ### Backup And Recovery Automated backups with restores tested in advance, so a failure in March does not turn into a missed filing deadline. ### Remote And Seasonal Staff Secure access for people working from home, and accounts provisioned and removed cleanly as seasonal help comes and goes. ### Busy Season Readiness Capacity, patching and hardware checks scheduled ahead of January, so the work is done before the pressure arrives.

Yes. We support the workstations, servers and network your tax and accounting applications depend on, including the prior-year versions you are required to keep, and we work with those vendors directly when an issue sits on their side. ### We need a written information security plan. Can you help? We can document and maintain the technical half of it: access control, encryption, backups, patching, logging and endpoint protection. The plan itself is your firm's document and should be reviewed by someone qualified to advise you on what it must contain. ### How do you prepare us for busy season? We review capacity, patching, backups and ageing hardware ahead of January, so that work happens before the pressure arrives rather than in the middle of it. ### Can seasonal staff be set up and removed safely? Yes. Accounts are created with only the access the role needs and removed promptly when the season ends, which is where firms most often leave a door open without realising. ### Do we have to replace our servers? Usually not. We assess what you have and recommend changes only where age, security or capacity is a genuine risk to your deadlines.
