Information Systems (IS) Audit Services

Providing 'IS Audit Department' set up assistance
Assistance is provided in development of a strategy, recruiting specialist staff and training for creation of an Information Systems Audit Department with focus on Information Technology in an organisation. The department can carry out review of Computerised Information Systems and accordingly, strengthen the overall internal audit function.

Further, assistance is provided in development of an IT manual defining the procedures, methodologies and standards to be followed by the department. We also assist in the design, development, execution and control of Computer Assisted Auditing Techniques (CAAT) programs for data testing. The stages include formulating objectives of testing, identification of audit tests, definition of CAATs to be developed, detailed design of CAATs, implementation and maintenance of CAATs, documenting results and arriving at conclusion.

Audit Command Language (ACL)
We assist our clients in implementing ACL, a tool which is used for data extraction, analysis and interrogation. ACL is a powerful data analysis tool that can be used to read, analyse, summarise or report on data. Auditing "through" the computer requires Computer Assisted Audit Techniques (CAAT). ACL, designed as generalised software to meet audit/inspection needs, is developed by ACL Services Limited in Canada. We also help clients in developing standard templates that may be used for data extraction and interrogation.

Information Systems (IS) Audit Training
The training seeks to ensure that the organisation's Internal Audit staffs are provided with a strong foundation which will help them develop into well rounded IT audit professionals.
