2. IT AUDIT
• INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AUDIT SERVICES
Does your audit plan efficiently and effectively address the business risks related to IT? Does your internal audit department have all the needed skills to evaluate new technologies and information systems? Many companies are finding it difficult to build or acquire – and then maintain – the depth and variety of technology skills necessary to assess the increasing flood of new information systems, regulatory requirements, new technologies and reengineered business processes. Others may have only infrequent needs for such skills, which makes the hiring of full-time staff impractical. And others, especially those who are expanding or moving into overseas markets, find it too expensive to have IT audit staff travel to review their systems in other parts of the country or the world.
• OUR SOLUTION
AROSMITH provides a variety of general and specialized IT auditing assistance. Our technology professionals, in Namibia, understand the benefits and risks of information technology. They work with a variety of industries, system platforms and business applications. Whether for specific projects or under a more comprehensive arrangement, AROSMITH can support your internal audit function so that your staffs – and your organization’s information systems – are working to their full potential.
• OUR APPROACH
Our IT audit approach is flexible and considers your organization’s culture, IT environment, systems, business operations and priorities. You will quickly realize the benefits of a globally available, experienced and well-trained IT audit staff: consistent, reliable quality; knowledge of the most advanced systems and professional practices; staffing flexibility; and the ability to focus internal resources on the most strategic issues. We partner with you through a variety of arrangements to meet your specific needs. We can work alongside your internal audit staff, contributing the specific technical skills that will enable you to address information technology risk. During our engagements, we can provide training to help your staff acquire these skills for use in the future. We can also assume broader responsibility for your IT auditing needs, including development of an IT risk analysis and profile; reviewing operating systems and networks; ensuring the consideration of appropriate security, integrity, and recoverability controls in systems development; assessing disaster recovery plans; and conducting special investigations.
• INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AUDIT SUPPORT
AROSMITH can support you, whether your IT audit department is short of staff or needs assistance with a particular issue or technology. We work closely with your internal audit personnel to enhance their knowledge of specific systems or technologies. We can augment their skills in ERP auditing techniques, performing integrated audits and assessing network security in client/server and e-commerce environments.
• OUTSOURCED INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AUDIT
When needed, AROSMITH can assume responsibility for your organization’s IT audit services. When we act as your internal IT audit department, we provide you with the accountability of an external provider, access to well-trained professionals, the flexibility to staff worldwide projects and priorities as needed, and the freedom to focus on your own strategic issues. The extensive training and career opportunities provided to our information technology professionals foster a consistently high level of competence and commitment to meeting your needs. We focus on your business objectives, helping to ensure that information systems – both old and new – comply with management’s goals, policies and procedures. Data security, disaster recovery and system controls are just a few of the concerns we can address.
• STRATEGIC INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY AUDITS
If your company is moving to new technologies, you have to ask: “What are the risks? Are we doing the right things to ensure quality, security and control?” Behind your answers should be an understanding of the future of the technology and its likely applications in your own industry. Getting the right systems to support corporate goals is the first objective in IT strategic planning? Just as important is getting your system right by ensuring quality controls from initial design through final implementation. Our professionals provide you with the expertise you need to answer these questions and address your objectives. Our fees are dependent on the type of business, its complexity, the amount of information and data you are able to provide, and the type and extent of assistance required. Our fees are very reasonable and competitive.
