UDNI is a managed service provider (MSP) based out of Central Pennsylvania supporting organizations that rely on secure, compliant, and high performing technology. We specialize in working with accounting firms, helping them reduce business risk, strengthen cybersecurity posture, and adopt the right technology tools to operate more efficiently. Through our partnership, PICPA members now have access to exclusive services, pricing, and educational resources designed to simplify technology decision-making and help firms stay ahead of emerging threats.
Financial professionals continue to be a top target for cybercriminals. The most common threats facing CPA firms today include:
Phishing and Business Email Compromise – Phishing remains the No. 1 entry point for cyberattacks in the financial sector.
Ransomware Targeting Financial Data – Ransomware can shut down accounting operations entirely, locking payroll, invoicing, tax documents, and client records until a ransom is paid.
Cloud Security Vulnerabilities and Misconfigurations – As more firms move to cloud-based accounting systems, cloud misconfigurations and insecure setups are becoming major exploitation points.
Insecure Remote Work Practices – Remote access without proper virtual private networks (VPNs), multifactor authentication (MFA), updated devices, or secure networks exposes accounting firms to credential theft and unauthorized entry.
We’re excited to help PICPA members strengthen their cybersecurity posture, modernize their operations, and implement AI best practice. This partnership is about more than technology – it’s about giving firms confidence, stability, and the tools needed to thrive in a rapidly evolving digital landscape.
