"Protect Your Clients; Protect Yourself: Tax Security 101" is a Security Summit awareness campaign intended to provide tax professionals with the basic information they need to better protect taxpayer data and to help prevent the filing of fraudulent tax returns. This series builds on and expands on earlier Summit awareness campaigns aimed at tax professionals and taxpayers. In addition, this campaign follows recommendations made by the Electronic Tax Administration Advisory Committee (ETAAC), which noted tax professionals “are at increasing risk” of security vulnerability.
