Audit of general IT controls
Information technology is a fundamental component for the execution of organizations’ operating processes, allowing them to achieve their strategic objectives and continually improve. For this simple reason, it is important to consider auditing the internal controls and processes related to how IT is used in your organization.
In the current business context, as information technology becomes ever more important as a facilitator for the functioning of an organization, it can also become a possible risk factor for the performance of productive activities when necessary and sufficient IT controls are not in place. One possible result of this lack of controls is non-compliance with important regulatory obligations (SOX, CNBV, CNSF, LFPDPPP) for organizations subject to regulation. Audits should therefore be continually carried out in order to determine the reliability, integrity, and security of the information processed through IT assets, as well as to ascertain whether or not the risks inherent to this processing are reasonably controlled.
The services we offer in this area include:
- Audit of General IT Controls
- Audit of Systems and Applications
- Information Security Audits (ISO 27001).
- Co-outsourcing of IT Audits
Our IT auditing services offers your organization the opportunity to identify possible major risks in its business operations. Likewise, through the implementation of recommendations based on best practices frameworks such as COBIT 5, ITIL v3, or ISO 27001, the controls associated with performance management and supervision of IT processes and services will be reinforced. Additionally, information security controls for your organization’s systems and applications will also be strengthened.
