Another classic by Gallegos, et al. This comprehensive book contains practical information for IT professional. In addition, the book addresses emerging issues in IS audit which serve as a valuable tool for any IT executives interested in addressing the future of IS audit.

The book is easy to read with ample real-life examples and references. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to gain a solid understanding of Information Technology Control and Audit.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must have complete guide for any information professionals, 20 Aug 1999
By A Customer
I have gone through many series of Information Audit & Control books but by far this one is the most comprehensive one. Not only it succeeds in explaining all the objectives of audit and control in a language that is easy to understand, it also encompasses all the issues starting from IT development through implementation. What I particularly love is the provision of all the IT standards towards the end of the book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent reference book, 6 Jul 1999
By A Customer
This is an excellent book for IT Auditors and IT Security Professionals. There are professional standards that apply to information technology, along with sample audit cases and audit programs which can be used to assist IT auditors in an audit or when drafting a security policy.

With rapid changes of the technology such as the concept of LAN, WAN, MAN, firewall, e-commerce, etc., IT Auditors and IT Security Professionals need to stay current with the changes. Information Technology Control and Audit provides the latest information on auditing new environment, improving information systems security, and maintaining effective control over all computing functions.
