IT security professionals can make excellent candidates for IT auditors because it’s like looking through the other end of the lends. IT Auditors are independent of operations, so an IT security professional transitioning has the practical experience to know where vulnerabilities might exist or where operations personnel might be prone to taking “short-cuts.” This operational experience can certainly help them make sound recommendations for organizational improvement if they decide a transition into IT Auditing.

by Jeff Weaver
The profession of Auditing is one of the oldest ones in human history. There are many different types (Financial, Quality, Operational, Health and Safety, etc.) and levels of auditing. The first requirement for the auditors is to know the business that they are auditing. Risk assessment know-how is a must. Auditors need more Technical skills, understand Project Management and should also spend time for learning the SDLC (Systems Development Life Cycle) for the relevant business processes so that they can look underneath the numbers (business results), but also to the systems and processes that create those numbers.

Disaster Recovery is a subjective area; typically viewed differently by technology professionals and business leaders.

For some, it simply means having access to data files within 3 days; while others may require continuous access to systems and data, regardless of the event.
Interview with Jay McBain

Building a personal brand is key in today’s “flat” world. Social media is one of the tools that blend with a more physical presence through local communities, charities, industry events, associations and peer groups.

Interview with Raj Goel
by Aby Rao
At a very high level, CEOs and CFOs are primarily concerned with lowering costs, increasing revenues. IT security doesn’t really matter to them – I’m met very few CEOs or CFOs who actively seek out IT compliance or IT audit services.
