The Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA) designation is the international gold standard for IT auditing.
A CISA-led audit builds confidence among stakeholders, investors, and regulators that information systems are secure and well-managed.
An IT Audit is a comprehensive evaluation of an organization's information technology governance, risk management, infrastructure, systems, operations, policies, and controls, from access control to data privacy, backup processes and incidents response readiness. Its purpose is to ensure that IT controls are in place and working effectively to protect the Confidentiality, Availability and Integrity of business and personal data, and align with the business's goals
Two types of IT audits
(1) IT Audit that focuses on IT controls over financial reporting, also known as an audit of Internal Control over Financial Reporting, is a specialized review to ensure a company’s accounting information systems can produce reliable and accurate financial statements. The IT controls examined in this type of audit fall into two main categories of IT General Controls (ITGCs) and IT Application Controls (ITACs)
(2) IT Audit that focuses on the examination of an organization's information technology operations (including operating performance and efficiency, systems life cycle, disaster recovery and business continuity plans) and IT infrastructure to identify and mitigate security risks.
Cybersecurity audits fall under this IT Audit category. Cybersecurity essentials and best practices are used as audit criteria to assess threats and vulnerabilities, ensuring cyber hygiene and enhancing the security posture of an organization's IT infrastructure.

New technologies and digital transformation come with many unknowns
“I view cyber security as a key enabler to digitalisation”
“I view it as the brakes on a car. If you want to drive fast, you need good brakes. So if you want to go into the digital world, you need good security.” - Mr David Koh, Chief Executive of Cyber Security Agency of Singapore (CSA)
