Recent newspaper stories concerning Identify theft and vital records exposure are causing concerns in boardrooms across the country. How could these things happen at SOX compliant companies? The answer is that the SOX effort focused primarily on applications and transactions. Testing at the operating system and database level focused primarily on general controls. This seminar is intended for auditors who now want to make the extra effort to ensure that the systems and databases hosting SOX complaint applications are secure. Using the Canaudit audit approach, security is analyzed using a combination of scripts, tools and yes, even exploits, to identify weaknesses before they can be exploited by hackers.
