Each year, billions of dollars are spent globally on implementing new or upgrading business application systems.  Effective application controls will help your organization to ensure the integrity, accuracy, confidentiality, and completeness of your data and systems.

It is important for the chief audit executive (CAE) and his or her team to develop and execute audits of application controls on a periodic basis in order to determine whether they are designed appropriately and operating effectively.  This new IIA guidance,Auditing Application Controls, provides internal auditors with the following information.
  • What is application control?
  • What is the relationship between application controls and general controls?
  • Why rely on application controls?
  • How to scope a risk-based application control review?
  • What are the steps to conduct an application controls review?
To further assist CAEs or other individuals who use this guide, also included is a list of key application controls, a sample audit plan and a list of some application control review tools.
