I don't mean this as a giant joke, but where do you find these accountants?

I'm not saying that they don't try to, but things that would be major security no-no's to people on HN are often a regular part of business for others (emailing photocopies of 'secure' documents, copy/pasting passwords, etc).

It varies. My tax preparer will not even open PDFs that I want to send him due to the risks he perceives there.
