Common PCAOB Themes in ITGC Inspections
Common PCAOB Themes in ITGC Inspections
CPE Credit:
1
Overview
Description:
This course explores recurring PCAOB inspection themes related to Information Technology General Controls and explains why certain ITGC audit approaches consistently raise concerns. Rather than focusing on individual deficiencies, the course examines inspection patterns tied to evidence quality, professional skepticism, control clarity, scoping decisions, SOC reliance, and reviewer judgment. Participants will gain insight into how inspectors evaluate ITGC workpapers and how recurring signals of weak documentation or unsupported assumptions increase inspection risk. Understanding these themes strengthens audit defensibility and improves overall ITGC execution.
