A recent internal Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) audit reveals that computer security at the agency continues to be poorly monitored, despite growing cyber threats that auditors say pose risks to taxpayers’ information.
In a report titled “Security Assessment and Authorization,” the audit concluded that the CRA, tasked with managing electronic data for more than 27 million individual and corporate tax filers, continues to face challenges in safeguarding sensitive data, as first reported by Blacklock’s Reporter.
