Security & Data Info
• SAM values your firm's AND client's security and privacy. That's why we have developed a Banking-Grade TLS 1.3 Encrypted platform ensuring safety and security from potential cyber risks.
• Most up-to-date security protocol supported by a large range of internet browsers such as Chrome, Safari, Edge, Firefox, and IE6. All sensitive data including passwords, files, and credit cards are 256-bit encrypted and stored at rest.
• SAM stores encrypted data in "Allow-Only" lists allowing access only to known server connections.
• Access Keys and Passwords use one-way hashing and a zero-knowledge approach, making them impossible (Including SAM) to determine once stored.
• SAM uses artificial and business intelligence to improve security, function, and simplicity in real time.
• SAM's Engineering team has over 25+ years in global software management and Cybersecurity.

The app will be white labeled with your firm name. This feature will be available at the same time as the Business Advisory/E-Commerce platform is launched.

Tax Research Projects are one of SAM's many Firm resource tools and a simple way to have our experts research, find answers and properly document it for tax law, case law, etc. when a client is too busy.
Our Tax Research Projects are only offered to our most experienced CPA's with a minimum of 10 years tax experience and who have extensive experience in tax research and tax court cases. These projects are provided in a format showing Facts, Question, Analysis and Conclusion with all the applicable documents provided. The 48 hour completion rule does not apply but instead, the CPA assigns a specific due date that will be reflected in your tax research ticket.
