Case study Data integrity
A core feature of all our audits is data integrity. During data mining for a business critical controls audit, we identified data issues between the client housing system and the new standalone compliance software. Investigation identified that the software provider had applied updates to the compliance software that resulted in properties being deleted from the system. Improvements were required to the data governance arrangements with the software provider and to the clients own checks and balances. The early identification meant that there was no breach of law or regulation and no harm to tenants.
