Written Information Security Plan (WISP)

Ensure Compliance with a WISP Today!

Protecting sensitive client information isn’t optional—it’s the law. Without a Written Information Security Plan (WISP), your firm risks non-compliance, fines, and a loss of client trust. Federal regulations under the FTC Safeguards Rule and IRS Publication 4557 require every tax preparer and accounting professional to create, implement, and maintain a WISP.

Don’t wait—get compliant today with Barith’s WISP Builder.

What is a WISP?

A Written Information Security Plan (WISP) is a federally mandated document that outlines how your firm safeguards sensitive client information. It serves as a cornerstone of compliance with both the FTC Safeguards Rule and IRS Publication 4557, which are required under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA).

The Safeguards Rule recognizes tax preparers and accounting professionals as financial institutions, regardless of size, and mandates that they create, implement, and maintain a WISP to protect client data. This written plan must be accessible, reviewed regularly, and updated to address evolving threats.

Don't Wait - Take Action Now!

The IRS is cracking down on compliance more than ever, increasing audits and enforcing stricter penalties for firms without a Written Information Security Plan (WISP). Not having a WISP puts your firm at serious risk of fines, penalties, and legal repercussions if caught.
