Are tax file transmissions using FSET secure?
Yes. EDD established a network of distributed security to ensure the protection of information throughout our e-Services programs. The EDD FSET Gateway uses Simple Object Access Protocol transmissions over a Secure Socket Layer connection using HTTPS protocol, which encrypts the data during transit. During the FSET registration process, a self-selected User ID and password are established. These credentials are passed and authenticated by EDD with each transmission.
