Actions Are Needed to Improve the Safeguarding of Taxpayer Information at Volunteer Program Sites

The Commissioner, Wage and Investment Division, should issue guidance to Volunteer Program partners requiring the development of an information security plan for each of their sites. The guidance should detail the elements to be included in this plan and the need to review the plan with volunteers and retain the plan at the site. IRS site review procedures should also be updated to include verification of the information security plan.
