IRS disclosure awareness videos

 

IRS disclosure awareness training videos are available for local, state and federal governmental agencies that receive federal tax information (FTI). The videos help agencies with their annual requirement to certify that their employees understand the security policies and procedures.

The IRS Office of Safeguards created three agency specific videos to help explain several key concepts in protecting the confidentiality of FTI. Topics discussed include the eight key tenets of safeguarding FTI, the importance of Publication 1075, Safeguards webpage, submission of information to Safeguards and the penalties for unauthorized browsing and disclosure of FTI.
