Is a Ransomware Payment Tax Deductible…..

WASHINGTON (AP)  – Tax experts say there may be a silver lining when it comes to companies that pay money to recover data stolen in a ransomware attack.   Payments to hackers may be tax deductible.

The IRS itself is silent on the subject;   it offers no formal guidance on whether a business can deduct ransomware payments.   But tax people say a ransomware payment is similar to other crime-related business losses like thefts and break-ins.

At the same time, the FBI has lately been telling businesses targeted by hackers that they shouldn’t pay cybercriminals to recover their data.
