MARKET RESTRAINTS


Increasing Reliance on Digital Communication and ePayment Methods Are Creating  Data Security Concerns


There are several possible vulnerabilities present in electronic communication methods. These vulnerabilities include sensitive information sharing, data and security breaches, identity theft, and other platforms of cyberattacks. Nevertheless, due to the useful and fragile nature of the information, the danger in tax administration is severe. Sensitive data is often stored in areas outside banking such as on-cloud and databases, which enables cybercriminals, including the filing of fraudulent tax returns to subvert valuable company data and to use it to enter unlawful trading. Similarly, cybercriminals also target tax professionals as they have details including client names, addresses, dates of birth, and access to the bank accounts. This might impede the tax software market growth during the forecast period.


Human errors trigger many of the data breaches, so policymakers should combine that dependency on digital communication with a concerted effort to inform citizens on the key risks and safeguards.
