Security

Security measures

Client financial data deserves the same discipline as the numbers themselves. Here is how we protect it.

Encrypted transmission

Client documents move through our secure client platform over encrypted connections rather than as email attachments.

Access controls

Staff access to client records is limited to the people working on the engagement, and accounts are protected with strong authentication.

This website stores nothing

Our public site has no client login, no database, and no lead storage. Calculators run in your browser and messages open in your own email client.

Vendor review

We evaluate the security posture of the platforms we use for accounting, payroll, and document exchange before client data touches them.

Retention and disposal

Records are retained according to professional standards and disposed of securely when the retention period ends.

Staff training

Our team is trained to recognize phishing and social engineering, and to verify payment or banking change requests by phone.

If you receive a message that appears to come from Spara requesting a wire, a banking change, or credentials, do not act on it. Call us directly at (864) 565-9442 to verify.
