Why it matters
The pressure this sector is actually under
Client tax records carry multi-year retention and are attractive to attackers precisely because they contain complete financial identities. Hurricane season also overlaps with extension deadlines, which is an unfortunate coincidence if your only backup is in the office.
What firms in this sector hand us
- Backup tape and drive sets
- Prior-year client files and workpapers
- Retired workstations
- Paper records past active retention
Compliance
Frameworks that usually apply
Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX)
SOX is a controls regime. Auditors test whether a control operated, not whether it was described. A custody record showing that every rotation happened on schedule is the kind of evidence that survives testing.

These pages describe what physical custody contributes. They are general background, not legal advice, and they do not state retention periods.

Questions from accounting firms
- Can rotation change during busy season?
- Yes. Many clients move to daily rotation January through April and back to weekly after.
- Do you handle end-of-retention destruction?
- Yes, witnessed, in batches against your schedule.
- Can you index at client level?
- Yes, if you supply the manifest at intake. We do not open boxes to build one.
