IT System & ITGC Reviews
Information Technology (IT) systems form the backbone of financial reporting, compliance, and operational processes. IT General Controls (ITGC) reviews assess the reliability, security, and effectiveness of IT systems, ensuring they support accurate financial reporting and protect organizational data.
Independent ITGC reviews provide assurance that access rights, change management, data integrity, and system operations are well controlled. They also ensure compliance with regulatory requirements and international audit standards, reducing risks of fraud, errors, and cyber threats.
About This Service
Our IT system and ITGC review services focus on evaluating IT controls that impact financial reporting and business operations. We assess system access, change management processes, backup and recovery procedures, and IT governance frameworks to ensure reliability.
We review application controls, segregation of duties, and database management practices to confirm that only authorized users can access or modify critical systems. This reduces the risk of data manipulation or unauthorized activities.
Our reviews also cover IT infrastructure, cybersecurity, and regulatory compliance (e.g., RBI, SEBI, GDPR where applicable). By identifying gaps and weaknesses, we provide actionable recommendations to strengthen IT resilience.
Through our independent assessments, organizations gain confidence in their IT systems, improve risk management, and ensure that digital operations align with global best practices.
