In today's world, technology has become an integral part of our lives.

With the increased use of digital devices, the number of cyberattacks has steadily risen.

Many of us have our faces stuck on screens most of the day. You are either working at a computer, picking up a cell phone to answer email, cruising through social media, or just looking at notifications when you hear that special ding.

Among them are a potential new commissioner (Danny Werfel was nominated for the role in November 2022) and an increased budget that will give the IRS billions of dollars to spend, although it has less than two months left to develop a spending plan.

On Dec. 29, the Internal Revenue Service issued the 2023 optional standard mileage rates used to calculate the deductible costs of operating an automobile for business, charitable, medical or moving purposes.
