UK at risk of massive security breach from national IT meltdown
The UK is at risk of a massive security breach that could see bank account details and national insurance numbers leaked because of the government’s failure to upgrade Whitehall’s ageing computer system, The Independent can reveal. HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC) has sounded the alarm over its “old and ageing IT systems”, sparking warnings from experts that hackers could steal taxpayers’ sensitive data or leave the UK open to the threat of Russian and Chinese hackers. The risk to the UK’s entire taxation system came as parliament’s Treasury committee prepares to grill HMRC chiefs and board members over the issue, as well as other topics, on Wednesday.
The security warning in the tax authority’s annual accounts, uncovered by The Independent, states the outdated tech could lead to a “major IT failure or security breach” that could “harm our business operations permanently”.
It ranks the risk – codenamed red – and impact of such a breakdown as “high” and warns a cyberattack or malfunction is becoming more likely.
