Abstract

Information technology (IT) audit professionals have traditionally viewed themselves as computer and information systems specialists. However, recent legal and regulatory trends require every IT auditor to be familiar with the rules and regulations for storing, securing, and transmitting digital business information. Companies that fail to store mandated e‐data—or send it to third parties without meeting certain legal conditions—can get into serious legal trouble.

So how much do you know about the legal side of IT auditing? What you don't know can hurt your firm and your career. But the information and advice in this article can help protect you . © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
