How Makpar Supports the IRS in the Wake of the One Big Beautiful Bill
One of the core goals of the One Big Beautiful Bill is to reinforce public trust in the tax system by reducing fraud and strengthening identity assurance. This is not only a matter of technology. It is about protecting taxpayer confidence in a system that depends on fairness, integrity, and secure access.
OB3 places a renewed emphasis on claims integrity, verification, and accountability. To turn this policy direction into a working reality, the IRS needs secure digital identity, reliable authentication, and strong controls that can detect and prevent fraudulent activity before it causes harm.
At Makpar, we help the IRS achieve these outcomes by providing the infrastructure, data controls, and cyber resiliency required to safeguard taxpayer information and preserve trust at scale.
Why Fraud Reduction Builds Confidence
When taxpayers are confident that the system protects their identity and financial data, participation rises, and voluntary compliance improves. But when fraud reaches the front door of government systems, trust erodes quickly.
Fraud prevention begins with reliable identity proofing and authentication. If the system can verify who is requesting access, it creates a foundation for fairness and transparency. From there, claims integrity relies on the ability to validate patterns of use, detect anomalies, and block malicious attempts before they disrupt services.
This is why digital identity is not only a security concern, but it is also a trust concern.
The Role of Digital Identity in Public Confidence
The IRS eA3 program is the technology backbone that protects taxpayer access across dozens of IRS services. It handles authentication and authorization for tens of millions of users and supports high volume usage by tax professionals during peak filing periods.
Makpar leads the management and delivery of this mission critical system, ensuring reliable performance and secure access at nationwide scale.
How OB3 Connects to Fraud Prevention
OB3 expands the need for strong identity assurance by requiring consistent due diligence across taxpayer services. These reforms depend on digital trust. Fraud prevention cannot rely on manual review or legacy policy interpretation. It must be built into the access layer itself.
Makpar helps the IRS achieve this through:
- Identity assurance and secure authentication across taxpayer facing services.
- Real time monitoring and fraud analytics to detect abnormal activity.
- Privacy and data stewardship practices that give taxpayers confidence in system protections.
- Architectures designed for accountability and auditability.
The Outcome
With a reliable digital front door in place, the IRS can advance OB3 reforms while preserving privacy and strengthening confidence in the system. Strong identity protections allow the agency to focus more of its resources on service delivery and compliance modernization, while reducing fraudulent claims and unauthorized access.
Makpar remains committed to supporting the IRS in protecting taxpayer dollars and delivering a digital tax experience built on trust and security.
