IRS Publication 1075 - Federal Tax Information 2024

The safeguards an organization must have in place to receive Federal Tax Information from the IRS.

Municipalities encounter this more often than they expect: FTI arrives through state revenue and human services agencies, and any local body that receives it - a tax assessor, a child support office, a benefits administrator - inherits the full requirement set, as does any contractor that touches it. Pub 1075 is built on NIST SP 800-53 with IRS-specific additions: audit records retained for seven years, incident notification to the IRS Office of Safeguards and TIGTA within 24 hours, background investigations before FTI access, and assessment against the Safeguard Computer Security Evaluation Matrix.

FTI must be kept separate from other data and must never leave the United States. The obligation follows the data, so the first question is always whether you actually receive FTI, and the second is which of your systems it has reached.

How Lavawall® helps you get to IRS Publication 1075 - Federal Tax Information compliance

Most of IRS Publication 1075 - Federal Tax Information comes down to technical controls you have to run and prove: keeping systems patched, hardening configuration, detecting breaches early, backing up what matters, controlling access, and keeping evidence that all of it actually happened. Lavawall® runs those controls across Windows, macOS, Linux, and Microsoft 365 / Google Workspace from one console, maps them to IRS Publication 1075 - Federal Tax Information, and tracks your posture continuously instead of once a year at audit time.

• Assess your current state against IRS Publication 1075 - Federal Tax Information in the Lavawall GRC module, with the questionnaire and control set built in.
• Remediate the gaps with the same platform — automated patching, configuration fixes, backups, and access review — not a separate project.
• Evidence everything with timestamped, exportable records auditors, insurers, and clients accept.
