Today, the Audit Unit continued conducting the IT audit. My task for the day involved inspecting additional assets that had been purchased and cross-checking their serial numbers against those stated in the invoices provided by the supplier. This process was carried out to ensure that the purchased assets were correctly recorded and assigned to the appropriate users. In addition, we conducted further evidence collection by taking photographs of the audited assets.

In addition, I was assigned to organize and tag the appendices for an audit report. As I had performed a similar task previously, I was able to complete the work more efficiently and within a shorter period of time. Upon completion, I carefully reviewed the e...
