Information Technology Auditing (IT auditing) has developed largely as a result of the rise in technology in the workplace, the need for IT control, and the impact of computers and other IT related equipment.
It is also helpful to gage capital expense costs, to provide a recorded list of equipment for insurance purposes and also for software licensing, making sure all your software is legitimate. Auditing IT Infrastructures can involve: | Physical Audit: | | Physical IT Equipment | | Physical Network Components (WANs & LANs) | | Physical Security | | Environment |
|
| Auditing of Operating Systems and General Software Systems: | | Licensing | | Data Handling | | Scheduling | | Applications and Utilities | | System Files | | Supervisory Privileges | | Policies and Standards | | Cryptography |
|
| Network Systems Audit: | | Auditing in the Internet Environment | | Physical Connections | | Protocols | | Risks | | Intrusion Testing | | Intranet |
