Audit

The importance of technical evaluations in audits continues to grow. The use of inter-connected technologies to conduct our business, the fading of the technical demarcation between our business and our partners' businesses, combined with the expansion and increased complexity of business technologies is driving the need for specialized technical expertise to conduct audits effectively and efficiently.

TrustedTechPro® offers audit services directly to our clients as well as indirectly through their attorneys and CPAs. We conduct audits and evaluations of general support and application systems as well as compliance with laws, regulations, and best practices. We assess an organization's business process controls and help prevent and detect fraud.

We make recommendations to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of information technology operations. We can support your forensic evaluations and provide litigation support. When you need technical auditor with information system expertise, contact us.

Compliance with Laws, Regulations, and Best Practices

During the last decade, the United States Congress passed numerous laws regulating the management of information and information systems. So have many other countries. Often these have been industry specific: health care, financial services, and payment card industry standards. Failure to comply with these standards can directly impact the ability of your business to earn income, avoid penalties, and protect your customers.

In addition, a number of non-government consortiums have worked to develop and normalize a set of "best practices" and performance measures. Use of these best practices to manage a business improves efficiency and effectiveness. In addition, use of these best practices supports claims of exercising due diligence against liability claims. In short, failure to comply with laws and regulations and to adopt best practices can directly impact the continuity of operations.

Internal Control Tests

TrustedTechPro provides the technical expertise to evaluate internal controls in both wired and wireless networks. We provide support in targeted tests of select controls as well as full scope tests of enterprise wide safeguards.

We have experience with a broad spectrum of technology including Cisco networking, IBM mainframes, and many of the client-server architectures in use today including Microsoft, Sun, as well as the open source Linux and BSD architectures.

Potential for Fraud

Evaluating the potential for fraud requires knowledge of traditional exploits, the control weaknesses that allow fraud, and the manner in which technology can be used to support and hide fraudulent activities. TrustedTechPro has the experience you need to meet this important audit need.

Forensic Evaluations

TrustedTechPro can help auditors understand past events by evaluating transaction files, system logs, and network traffic captures. We can recover evidence thought to have been deleted or destroyed. We can demonstrate how vulnerabilities have been leveraged to gain unauthorized access, modify or delete information, and cover malicious activities. To be brief, TrustedTechPro can gather the evidence needed to understand what caused an adverse event, demonstrate or repeat the misadventure, and explain it in simple terms.

Litigation Support

TrustedTechPro has conducted forensic evaluations which successfully gathered, managed, and documented evidence in for successful prosecutions. In addition, TrustedTechPro has the experience to provide expert testimony as to the sufficiency of evidence used as support for allegations.
