As more and more Top 100 Firms add in non-CPA firms, particularly in technology and cybersecurity, EisnerAmper LLP has merged in CSAM Marketing Inc., a managed IT security services firm with offices in New York and New Jersey.
CSAM, also known as Computer Systems and Methods, was founded in 1984 and offers services such as network and server management, disaster recovery, strategic IT planning, and cloud system design and migration.

CSAM managing partner Rahul Mahna is joining EisnerAmper as a PRTS managing director.
