I for one am curious about a CPA that is using Google Docs to handle their customer's data. Are customers aware of this practice? Are they OK with their data being out there?
- andybak 13y agoConsider the security risks that any other CPA would be under: 1. Non-Google POP3/IMAP accounts 2. Any off-site backup service they happen to use 3. Any company that services their computer and thus has physical access to it 4. Their home/office network security 5. Their home/office physical security 6. Their IT guy's access to the data 7. Malware/virus risks How many CPAs have properly implemented strong encryption on their email and local storage? Tin-foil hat brigade aside - is Google Docs really in a different league to all of these other potential threats to client privacy?
