September 2009: tarted up here and there. Whatever happened to the Master CCE qualification?
Internal Controls Questionnaires (well we all have bills to pay!). • May 2009: linked to TopCAATs, the indisputable leader of the pack, and plugged Benford’s Law. • January 2009: likened internal vs external audits to white vs black box testing, thanks to an idea from Anup and Thomas. • December 2008: added another set of personal characteristics of auditors, drawing on ISO 19011. • October 2008: slight adjustments. Re-coloured the mind map to be readable without squinting. • August 2008: listed some of the personal characteristics of auditors, shamelessly plagiarised from an enthralling 166-page guide to data protection audits released by the Office of the Information Commissioner in the UK (what a cracker). Added a few sage words about why the auditors give us such a hard time. Added two erudite Latin quotes. Noted the HISP qualification. • July 2008: a few tweaks and a reminder about ISACA’s December CISA, CISM and CGEIT exams. • June 2008: linked to a new CISA FAQ (thanks Dinesh).
