The role of the information systems auditor is not just about compliance and performance testing but goes beyond by adding value to the enterprise through being an IS advisor to management. This book, whilst covering all the necessary skills in IS auditing, also focuses on the role of the IS auditor in enhancing the performance of the enterprise. The IS auditor is a key member of the enterprise and ensures that technology is used appropriately, protects data, and provides a secure environment. The book outlines the IS audit process in detail, enabling the reader to acquire necessary skills on how to conduct an IS audit. Included in the book are other formative skills, such as IT general controls, applications controls, IT governance, information security, IT risk, and disaster recovery. The book also covers all the necessary technologies an IS auditor requires to learn and understand in order to be an effective auditor. A good flair for technology is a must for one to be a good IS auditor. The book focuses on both learning the technology and developing appropriate evidence-gathering skills.
