This is the best book I've found so far on IT auditing. It is thorough, yet easy to understand. If you need detailed basics as well as experienced tip and want a book that's easy/interesting to read (as much as an IT auditing book can be), this is the one!I can't imagine anyone being disappointed with this one.
I purchased this book while taking an IT Audit Course. The content in this book is great. You are essentially taking the role of an IS auditor and this book provides "best practices" and explains to you detailed steps of auditing an information systems. I am currently studying for my CISA exam and the content in my CISA EXAM preparation book seems to be much easier since this "IT Auditing" book essentially has laid down a foundation for me.Highlights?:-your entry level to an IS Auditing environmentDowners?:-information is a bit datedShould you get purchase it?:Yes!- if you want your CISA- if you like IS Auditing- if you like IS Security
I bought this book to help me get a basic understanding of auditing IT controls. I really liked the organization of the book, the organization of methodology, and the concepts of what to audit. The technical details of how to gather audit data were spot on and well explained.
This book covers a lot of material in a short space. It is easy reading and very well organized. I couldn't be more satisfied.
I needed a text that could give me guidance in performing IT audit specifically in the technical areas such as auditing firewall, routers, etc as such this book was recommended by a fellow auditor. I started reading the first chapter, which is "Building an effective Internal Audit". This was very inciteful!My team and I were currently trying to decide on how we could add more value to the company rather than just our doing regular audit. This chapter certainly assisted me to bring across my suggestions more profoundly, such as playing a consultative role in projects and informal audits.I havent gone through the entire book, but from the brief purusal of the book, it certainly going assist me in doing my IT audits.
excellent book - very well written, well structured and contains v.useful checklists and info across many IT audit targets. Highly recommend to someone getting into IT audit.
Good introduction into auditing. I got this book before my first day in auditing and many of the principles discussed are exactly what I was being told.
As a newbie within the IT Audit profession, this book helped me bridge the gap and ensured I got the basics covered.
