Information Technology Auditing

Information Technology Auditing, 4th Edition teaches students how to evaluate accounting information systems in computer-based environments. Published by Cengage Learning in 2016, the volume combines foundational auditing principles with the technical demands of automated business operations.

The text concentrates on essential information technology dimensions of auditing, including transaction processing, audit risk, and the COSO control framework. Readers explore regulatory considerations such as Sarbanes-Oxley implications alongside standard control structures.

For this fourth edition, author James A. Hall expanded the material dedicated to enterprise systems and fraud detection techniques, introducing topics like continuous online auditing to prepare students for modern audit challenges.
