What is an IT Audit? When Should IT Audit be Performed?

Lack clarity on whether your existing IT investments are supporting growth?

With ever-increasing cyber threats and stringent regulatory requirements, Information Technology (IT) Audit has become a vital component of sound corporate governance and risk management. An IT audit, also known as an information systems audit, is a systematic and extensive review of your organisation’s information technology infrastructure, applications, data management, policies, and administrative procedures.

To deliver these audits with precision and authority, our IT auditing team in Canberra brings industry-recognised expertise to every project. We are certified professionals, equipped to assess and strengthen your IT systems according to the highest standards:

  • Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA)
  • Certified Information Security Manager (CISM)
  • Cisco Certified Network Associate Security (CCNA Security)
  • Certified in Risk and Information Systems Control (CRISC)
  • Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP)
  • Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP)

 

You should consider performing an IT audit whenever there’s a change in your business environment, such as implementing new software, expanding operations, or noticing recurring technical issues. Regular audits (typically annually or bi-annually) ensure your systems stay secure, compliant, and aligned with your business goals.
