IT Revision

The internal audit department faces the challenge of ensuring that business processes are supported by IT. Evidence of the effectiveness of controls and the security of company data is often only found in IT systems. Reliability, security and compliance must therefore be based on an assessment of the installed systems and IT processes as well as the stored data. In order to meet the challenge, the internal audit department must constantly expand its knowledge. But: due to the complexity of the systems, it is often not possible to comprehensively maintain the required competence for the individual areas (network/server security, authorization systems, firewall, customizing of applications, Active Directory, etc.) in the audit.

Due to the complexity of systems and the staffing of the internal audit department, the use of specialists is therefore advisable from an economic point of view.
