What is an IT Audit?
An Information Technology (IT) audit is a thorough examination of your organization’s IT infrastructure, policies, and operations. Its purpose is to ensure that your IT systems are secure, efficient, and aligned with your overall business objectives. In an era where technology is central to nearly every business function, a robust IT audit provides critical assurance that your digital assets are protected and your technology investments are delivering value.
