Businesses have mixed feelings about accounting. On the one hand, they can’t function without it as bookkeeping enables them to make better business decisions for themselves and their clients. However, they find it extremely tedious to manage and audit books of accounts. This is where accounting software enters the picture, turning a laborious work into a fun pastime. Many of the antiquated, manual, routine-based accounting procedures have been superseded by contemporary software solutions. After all, precision and quickness are important. Accounting software is used by almost all businesses in the UAE and throughout the world to manage their bookkeeping records, which makes integrated IT system audits necessary.
System Audit: Goal
An organization’s whole information systems installed are evaluated and reviewed as part of a system audit, which aims to identify weaknesses and vulnerabilities in the system and identify solutions to improve its efficacy, productivity, and efficiency. An impartial, methodical investigation is needed to determine if the intended arrangements are followed by the activities and related outcomes, and whether these arrangements are appropriate and sufficient to achieve the desired outcomes. To ensure that appropriate controls are in place for the management of information systems and that the output is genuine and free from fraud or manipulation, the IT infrastructure assessment can be carried out in tandem with the internal audit or financial audit.
