Challenges and Approaches: Improving Federal IT Audit Readiness and Outcomes


This event qualifies for 1 CPEs


Federal agencies have to undergo independent audits to demonstrate compliance with Federal IT audit controls from guidelines such as Federal Information System Controls Audit Manual (FISCAM), Federal Information Security Modernization Act (FISMA), Statement on Standards for Attestation Engagements (SSAE), Financial Improvement and Readiness Guidance (FIAR), National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) guidance, as well as other Federal audits and general Federal IT Controls. Agencies often struggle to achieve a state of readiness for these audits in terms of minimizing IT findings, improving FIAR compliance, and gaining an understanding of options for remediation of IT findings resulting from the audit.

 

This webinar discussion will explore the major challenges that they face in improving their level of readiness for such audits and strategies that have improved their operational posture for these audits to minimize the findings and resulting corrective actions.
