Do I need a security plan if clients prefer hard copy check. Pub 1345 talks about filing. Following pub 4557 and at a standstill. Please give some opinions. Is there a draft program security plan guide out there as a model. I am a lone preparer.
Thank you, Mike

If you are referring to your client preferring paper return, yes, you should have a security plan in place as you would still possess data that may be breached if the appropriate precautionary measures are not taken.
