The Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) is investigating an alleged agency data leak in coordination with the Department of Information and Communications Technology (DICT) and anti-cybercrime authorities. The bureau said it is strengthening security measures while working with the National Computer Emergency Response Team, Cybercrime Investigation and Coordinating Center, and Philippine National Police Anti-Cybercrime Group. The BIR has yet to disclose the extent of the alleged breach or the type of information potentially compromised, but assured the public that the matter is being treated with urgency.
