Keeping tax and business information secure is an important part of managing cyber security and reducing fraud risks.
Large businesses often have multiple representatives who can access tax and business information on their behalf. This may include:
- employees and officers
- tax professionals
- advisers
- other authorised contacts.
Over time, access arrangements can become out of date. People may change roles, leave the organisation, or no longer need access to your tax and business information. If access arrangements aren't reviewed regularly, there's an increased risk of unauthorised access or suspicious activity going unnoticed.
You should regularly review who has access to your tax and business information, such as authorised contacts, and remove access that's no longer required. This helps ensure only the right people have access and helps protects your business information.
Refer to Update your details for more information or contact your registered tax or BAS agent.
