How is confidential information safeguarded?
Most of our audits concern public entities and their information is not confidential. However, on an occasion we do require otherwise confidential information. Frequently we will simply review the information and never take possession of it. On other occasions we obtain confidential information in the course of an investigative audit. These are audits performed with a law enforcement agency and as such any confidential information we obtain is protected under the law enforcement agency’s authority.
