Auditing for Success

Author: ISACA
Date Published: 1 March 2021

Thorough compliance audits are critical to the success of every IT organization—and every auditor. But to achieve the desired results, sufficient time and resources must be allotted to prepare for the audit. An effective audit means meeting time, cost and quality expectations, which is possible with proper organization and intention. Audit efficiency can be improved by mitigating process bottlenecks or eliminating them altogether, which may involve dedicating an amount of time to a task that is directly proportionate to its importance. These efforts will result in a more satisfactory response time and increase the adaptability of the audit.

To further explore how auditing processes can be streamlined, Reciprocity and ISACA® will host the “Get Ahead of Your Audits” webinar on 11 March at 11AM CST (+6 UTC). Reciprocity’s Director of Governance, Risk and Control (GRC) Devices Dave Schmoeller will explain how to plan and prepare to meet audit goals, use technology to make the evidence collection process more efficient, and communicate the impact and results of the audit. ISACA members who attend will earn 1 continuing professional education (CPE) credit.
