IRS officials have said the agency is committed to improving security as it makes plans for an influx of funding and employees after several high-profile leaks.

The agency is preparing for a major overhaul with $78 billion included in the 2022 Inflation Reduction Act for the IRS through the end of fiscal year 2031.

A recent Congressional watchdog report found problems with the IRS’s handling of sensitive taxpayer information. The report found weaknesses in training, information systems, contractor oversight and information-sharing.

U.S. Sen. Mike Crapo, R-Idaho, said the problems at the IRS have been longstanding issues.
