How we create value

Technology Assurance Connected to Business Risk

An effective IT audit does more than review technical settings. It evaluates whether governance, people, processes, applications, infrastructure and data work together to protect operations and support reliable decisions.

  • IT governance and accountability
  • Access and change controls
  • System availability and resilience
  • Data integrity and reliable processing
  • Cybersecurity and information protection
  • Implementation and project oversight
  • Prioritized remediation

Useful answers

Frequently Asked Questions

A few common questions about the service and how an engagement can be structured.

What is included in an IT audit?
The scope depends on the objective. It may include IT governance, general controls, application controls, cybersecurity, data integrity, continuity, system implementation, technology projects or selected third-party services.
Can JKMNS review only one critical system?
Yes. A focused review can cover a selected ERP, accounting, HR, project-management or operational application and its related interfaces and controls.
Can an IT audit be completed before a new system goes live?
Yes. A pre-implementation or go-live readiness review can assess governance, testing, data migration, security, controls, cutover planning and operational readiness.
Does an IT audit replace penetration testing?
No. IT audit evaluates governance and controls across an agreed scope. Specialized vulnerability assessment or penetration testing is a different technical engagement and should be commissioned separately when required.
Can you help management track remediation?
Yes. The engagement can include a prioritized action plan, management responses, accountable owners, target dates and a follow-up review.
