Two Australian Tax Office (ATO) portals will experience downtime this weekend for upgrades, but once they return, taxpayers are unlikely to notice the difference.
After announcing that 1.9 million Australians lodged their tax in 2007 using e-tax, the Tax Commissioner has said that online initiatives can only go so far to ease the burden of an overly complex tax system.
The Australian Tax Office is warning of lengthy disruptions to its Tax Agent and Business Portal during Easter 2008 as it implements the first phase of its AU$450 million, three-year long Change Program.
The government has announced a slew of grants to projects which it hopes will extend communications coverage to remote indigenous communities, as part of a AU$36.6 million telecommunications improvement program.
Authentication tokens used for online transactions will not stop identity theft, banks have warned as they search for other measures to secure customer accounts.
Microsoft says it will fold its SharePoint business portal software into its Office System product line.
