Full Methodology
  • We read the public records of 1863 accounting and CPA firms in August 2026.
  • Blindspot is not a penetration test. We never logged in, never tested a password, never installed anything, and never touched a network.
  • If a check cannot be confirmed, it does not become a finding.
  • No business is ever named. Every number here is a total, and confidence across the full study was 97%.
