Don’t become one of them. Let Protek reduce your risks through managed cybersecurity solutions that include firewall management, threat monitoring, data encryption, multi-factor authentication, and regular compliance audits.

Simplify Software Management Across Accounting Platforms

Your team depends on tools like QuickBooks, Xero, CaseWare, and Microsoft 365 to do their jobs. While useful, the problem with these platforms is that managing updates, resolving compatibility issues, and coordinating between vendors takes time away from client work and creates unnecessary frustration.

Instead, let Protek handle patch management, vendor communication, and integration support across your software stack. This reduces technical issues, keeps systems compatible, and improves performance across all your tools.

Your team stays focused on clients while we keep everything running smoothly in the background.

Maintain IT Uptime When Timing Matters Most

Billing cycles, tax filings, and client services can’t wait. Even short system outages during busy periods can cause delays, missed deadlines, or lost revenue for your firm.

Prevent such delays with Protek. We provide 24/7 monitoring, proactive maintenance, and responsive service desks to catch problems early. Our team works to keep your systems stable and address issues before they impact your operations.

Choose an IT partner who can promise you better uptime and quicker resolution times because you need to meet critical deadlines with few interruptions and minimal stress.

FAQs About Accounting Firm IT Services

How much control will I keep over our systems if I outsource IT services for my accounting firm?

You’ll maintain full control over your systems. We act as a strategic partner, not a replacement for your decision-making.

You stay informed through regular reporting on changes, decisions, and risks.

Our role is to advise, support, and carry out your directives, not to take over. You’ll remain the authority on what happens with your firm’s technology.

Can we get help with IT budgeting and hardware planning?

We can help with IT budgeting and hardware planning through quarterly reviews, lifecycle planning, and strategy support.

We guide your long-term investments by identifying aging hardware, projecting future needs, and aligning technology decisions with your firm’s goals.

This proactive approach helps reduce surprises, control costs, and keep your systems reliable as your firm grows or shifts direction.

Can you support both my in-office and remote staff?

We support both in-office and remote staff.

Remote employees get secure access through VPNs, cloud desktops, and tools designed to protect client data.

For in-office teams, we handle local support and can send a technician onsite when hardware issues require hands-on attention.

We also support firms with multiple locations to keep everyone connected, productive, and secure, no matter where they work.

Will you help me with my cybersecurity awareness training program?

We can assist with your cybersecurity awareness training program.

If your accounting firm is publicly owned in the state of Utah, Utah House Bill 239 (2024) requires that all employees complete cybersecurity training within 30 days of being hired and annually thereafter.

Such laws will not apply if you’re privately owned, but other financial compliance bodies may require it.

In either case, we support your initiatives and help you build a comprehensive awareness training program that addresses the latest threats.

Are there local compliance needs for Utah firms? Can you help us meet them?

Utah does have specific data compliance requirements that affect accounting firms.

The Protection of Personal Information Act requires reporting if certain personal data is exposed, such as names combined with Social Security numbers or tax records.

If your firm meets the thresholds under the Utah Consumer Privacy Act (UCPA), you must also manage data access and deletion requests, provide opt-out options, and maintain clear privacy notices.

We can help you meet these requirements with monitoring tools, access logs, breach response planning, data mapping, encryption support, and policy reviews.

Please note that we assist with IT and data protection; we are not a substitute for legal counsel if it’s required.
