Course Description
In today’s evolving virtual markets and highly complex, global corporate environments, information technology professionals, operational, financial, and IT auditors must all work together in helping to establish, implement and secure organizational infrastructure from both internal and external threats.

This course will provide the attendee with an insight into the most critical and sensitive areas of an organization, areas which are increasingly being examined by an organization’s internal audit function. Internal controls and security are examined with an objective of gaining a better understanding of the audit concerns related to securing and controlling an organization’s IT environment.

Participation in this course will provide a unique opportunity for an organization’s IT management, financial and operational auditors, and professional IT staff to become acquainted with the role and responsibilities of the organization’s IT audit professional.

Audience
IT Managers, system administrators, managers of telecommunications, directors of security, safety and continuity planning, HR managers, financial officers (CEO, CFO, COO), senior management (CIO, CXO, CSO) and IT professionals who through their involvement in managing or directing the IT infrastructure will eventually be requested, by their organization’s internal and/or external audit function, to participate in an examination of IT operations under their authority.

This particular two-day program would also be of value to financial and operational audit professionals considering a career move into IT auditing as well as non-IT audit professionals tasked with the responsibility for assessing their organization’s IT operations and infrastructure.

  1. Identify the critical elements involved in the audit of enterprise IT.
