Understanding and Conducting Information Systems Auditing / Wiley Corporate F&A (PDF)

A comprehensive guide to understanding and auditing modern
information systems

The increased dependence on information system resources for
performing key activities within organizations has made system
audits essential for ensuring the confidentiality, integrity, and
availability of information system resources. One of the biggest
challenges faced by auditors is the lack of a standardized approach
and relevant checklist. Understanding and Conducting Information
Systems Auditing brings together resources with audit tools and
techniques to solve this problem.

Featuring examples that are globally applicable and covering all
major standards, the book takes a non-technical approach to the
subject and presents information systems as a management tool with
practical applications. It explains in detail how to conduct
information systems audits and provides all the tools and
checklists needed to do so. In addition, it also introduces the
concept of information security grading, to help readers to
implement practical changes and solutions in their
organizations.
