Anyone see the dangers. How safe? Many major company subscribers?
By accepting data via this portal source what is minimum security measures
to validate. Is not integrity of source suspect. Godsend for those wishing
to obtain data by deception. No criminal bothers about entering valid data.
Are not data controllers allowing others to corrupt their client data. To
track any offenders computer IP addresses would be needed and these could
simply lead to internet cafes. >>

Believe it or not, certain departments of the government itself uses this
site - see the list of subscribers - as do some local authorities.
The government has made it clear that it does not accept the information as
valid and all it does is send a form for you to fill in, and sign, and return
to them with appropriate proof of the changes.
Some local government subscribers do not do that - but we wouldn't advocate
you telling them you have moved so they stop sending you a council tax bill.
Perish the thought!
