Wealth Management IT Support in Jericho, NY
For registered investment advisers, family offices and broker-dealer branches in Jericho Plaza, the Jericho Quadrangle and the offices along Jericho Turnpike. NetSys runs the technology a wealth practice depends on, protects client data to the standard examiners ask about, and backs it with written incident response, tested recovery and engineers from Brooklyn when the office needs a visit.
The short answer
For Jericho wealth management firms, NetSys runs Microsoft 365 with multifactor sign-in and Conditional Access, ThreatDown detection and response watched 24/7, email archiving and retention, encrypted laptops and phones under Intune, wire-fraud controls, and the written incident response program that amended Regulation S-P requires. The town sits within our on-site area, roughly 50 minutes by car from Park Slope, so problems are usually solved over a remote session and engineers come in for hardware and network jobs. Engineers answer the help desk from 4 a.m. until 11 p.m. Eastern, seven days a week, and support is billed per user per month with no long-term contract.

What changes for a wealth management firm in Jericho
Jericho is one of Long Island's main addresses for wealth management. Jericho Plaza, a pair of Class A office buildings totaling 665,592 square feet that changed hands for $212 million in 2022, has long housed national wealth management firms, and in December 2025 Morgan Stanley renewed 31,514 square feet and UBS 16,454 square feet there. At Exit 40 of the Long Island Expressway, the four-building Jericho Quadrangle holds accounting and professional firms that advisers work alongside. Around these large offices are independent advisers, family offices and small broker-dealer branches. Their regulatory picture depends on size. New York-based advisers with $25 million or more under management register with the SEC rather than the state, a lower line than the usual $100 million, so most Jericho RIAs answer directly to SEC rules, including amended Regulation S-P. Branches of larger broker-dealers inherit the home office's technology standards and FINRA supervision. Either way, examiners expect written policies, evidence that controls work, and a plan for the day something goes wrong.
On-site and remote support for advisory offices
Advisers and their assistants work long days around market hours, client meetings and quarterly reviews, so engineers staff our help desk every day from 4 a.m. until 11 p.m. Eastern. Most issues, a locked account, a custodial platform that will not load, a phone that stopped syncing mail, are solved remotely during the call. Because Jericho is within our on-site area, engineers also come in person for conference room screens before a client review, desks for an incoming advisory team, a firewall or switch replacement, and moves between the corridor's buildings. For branches of a larger firm, we work inside the home office's standards, using its approved devices, its required security tools and its change procedures, and we log our work so a compliance reviewer can follow it.
Client data, archiving and the systems an advisory practice runs
A wealth practice runs on a CRM, portfolio management and reporting software, custodian portals, financial planning tools, e-signature and document storage, mostly in the cloud and all holding data criminals want. We tie them together with one identity: Entra ID sign-in with multifactor authentication, Conditional Access that blocks unmanaged devices and risky sign-ins, and single sign-on where the vendor supports it. Laptops and phones are encrypted and managed in Intune, so a phone left in a car can be wiped. Email and Teams retention is set with your compliance officer to match books-and-records duties, and an archive keeps messages searchable when an examiner asks for them. Keeper holds shared credentials for custodial and vendor accounts, with access removed the day someone leaves. We review who can open which client folders every quarter, because permissions drift as teams change.
Wire fraud, incident response and continuity
Wealth managers move money, which makes their email a target. The FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center counted more than $3 billion in reported business email compromise losses in 2025, and a common pattern is a spoofed or hijacked client message asking to change wiring instructions. We filter mail with Barracuda, publish DMARC records to reduce spoofing of your domain, require multifactor sign-in on every mailbox and help you write a call-back rule for every disbursement or banking change, using a phone number already on file. When something does happen, amended Regulation S-P expects a written incident response program, so we keep one with you: who decides, who calls the custodian and counsel, how logs are preserved and how customer notices are prepared within the 30-day window. Microsoft 365 and local files are backed up and restore-tested, and a cellular line keeps the office reachable if the building's circuit fails.

Rules Jericho wealth managers work under
SEC Regulation S-P, as amended in 2024
The amendments require broker-dealers, SEC-registered investment advisers and other covered institutions to keep written policies and procedures for an incident response program that can detect, respond to and recover from unauthorized access to customer information. Affected individuals must be notified as soon as practicable and no later than 30 days after the firm becomes aware of the incident, and service provider oversight must ensure providers report a breach within 72 hours. Larger entities had to comply by December 3, 2025 and smaller entities by June 3, 2026, so the rule now applies at every size.
FINRA Rule 4370: business continuity plans
Broker-dealers must create and maintain a written business continuity plan that addresses, among other elements, data backup and recovery for hard copy and electronic records, all mission-critical systems, alternate communications with customers and an alternate physical location for employees. The plan must be reviewed every year and updated after material changes, and customers must be told at account opening how it handles significant disruptions. Branches usually follow the home office's plan; we make sure the branch's systems actually match it.
NYDFS 23 NYCRR Part 500 for licensed agents and agencies
Advisers who also hold insurance licenses from the Department of Financial Services, and the agencies they work through, are covered entities under Part 500. Small licensees may qualify for the limited exemption in section 500.19(a), with fewer than 20 employees and contractors, under $7.5 million in revenue in each of the last three years, or under $15 million in assets, but they must still file annual compliance forms by April 15, use multifactor authentication for remote access and privileged accounts, keep an asset inventory, assess third-party providers and report cybersecurity incidents and extortion payments.
New York SHIELD Act and breach notice
A firm complying with the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act's safeguards is treated as a compliant regulated entity under General Business Law 899-bb, but the notice rules in 899-aa still apply, including notice to affected New York residents within 30 days of discovery and reports to the State Police, the Department of State and the Attorney General. A Part 500 covered entity must also notify the Department of Financial Services. This is general information, not legal advice.

Wealth Management Firms in Jericho: FAQs
Who provides IT support for wealth management firms in Jericho?
NetSys, a New York IT firm founded in 1998 with its single office in Park Slope, Brooklyn, supports Jericho advisers, family offices and broker-dealer branches and sends engineers to the office when a job needs hands. Our financial-sector work centers on the controls examiners ask about: identity, encryption, archiving, incident response and vendor oversight. A single agreement covers the help desk, devices, Microsoft 365, security tools, backups and the calls to your vendors, and it renews monthly.
Do you provide on-site IT support in Jericho?
Yes. Our engineers work in person at Jericho Plaza, the Quadrangle and the offices along Jericho Turnpike when a job needs hands: conference room and video setup before client meetings, new adviser desks, network equipment, cabling and moves. Most requests are solved remotely first. For branches, on-site work follows the building's access rules and the home office's change procedures, and every visit is logged for your compliance file.
What does IT support cost for a wealth management firm in Jericho?
Pricing is per user per month, based on an assessment rather than a published rate. For an advisory firm the main drivers are headcount, the number of devices each person carries, archiving and retention requirements, whether Part 500 or broker-dealer obligations add documentation, and how many offices you run. Projects such as a tenant migration, a CRM move or an office relocation are priced on their own once scoped. You can end the agreement at the close of any month.
How do you help a Jericho RIA meet amended Regulation S-P?
We work through the three pieces examiners will look for. First, the incident response program: a written plan for detecting, containing and recovering from unauthorized access, with the logging and backups that make it workable. Second, customer notice: a process and templates so affected clients can be told within 30 days. Third, service provider oversight: an inventory of vendors with access to customer information and a record of how each one has agreed to report a breach to you within 72 hours. Your chief compliance officer approves the policies; we supply the technical evidence.
Do you support our CRM, portfolio reporting and custodian platforms?
We support the access and security around them and work with each vendor on its application. That means single sign-on and multifactor authentication where the platform allows it, managed devices so only approved laptops and phones reach client data, permissions that match each role, and offboarding that closes every account the day someone leaves. When a platform misbehaves, we troubleshoot the browser, network and identity side and take the rest to the vendor with the details already gathered.
We are a branch of a larger broker-dealer. Can you work within the home office's rules?
Yes. Many branches have to use the home office's approved hardware, security software and email system, and some changes need the home office's sign-off. We support the local side within those limits: the office network and Wi-Fi, printers and conference rooms, local devices the firm allows, the help desk for staff, and documentation of every change. Where the home office runs a tool, we coordinate with its technology team instead of installing a competing one.
