IT Audit Standards from ISACA and IIA

We have just updated ourselves on the latest IT audit standards from ISACA and the Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) – our senior management are members of both organizations.

It is worth mentioning that the ISACA IT Audit and Assurance Standards S10 ‘IT Governance’ and S11 ‘Use of Risk Assessment in Audit Planning’ are subject areas that have presented difficulties to many IT audit shops. IT Governance has gotten a lot of attention in recent years and rightfully so in our opinion. ISACA has volumes of information on this subject.

We encourage industry professionals to review these standards. Not only are these standards required of ISACA members, but they can be seen as ‘best practices.’
