CISA Questions (1-100) Questions &
100% Correct Answers
The internal audit department has written some scripts that are used for

continuous auditing of some information systems. The IT department has asked for

copies of the scripts so that they can use them for setting up a continuous

monitoring process on key systems. Would sharing these scripts with IT affect the

ability of the IS auditors to independently and objectively audit the IT function?




Select an answer:

A.

Sharing the scripts is not permitted because it would give IT the ability to pre-

audit systems and avoid an accurate, comprehensive audit.




B.

Sharing the scripts is required because IT must have the ability to review all

programs and software that runs on IS systems regardless of audit independence.




C.

Sharing the scripts is permissible as long as IT recognizes that audits may still be

conducted in areas not covered in the scripts.

D.

Sharing the scripts is not permitted because it would mean that the

A. The ability of IT to continuously monitor and address any issues on IT systems

can still audit the systems.

in the scripts.

clearly state audit objectives for, and the delegation of, authority to the

maintenance and review of internal controls.




C.

document the audit procedures designed to achieve the planned audit objectives.




D.

outline the overall authority, scope and responsibilities of the audit function.

A. The audit charter should not be subject to changes in technology and should

not significantly change over time. The charter should be approved at the highest

level of management.




B. An audit charter will state the authority and reporting requirements for the

audit but not the details of maintenance of internal controls.




C. An audit charter would not be at a detailed level and, therefore, would not

include specific audit objectives or procedures.




✓ CORRECT D. An audit charter should state management's objectives for and

delegation of authority to IS auditors.




The PRIMARY advantage of a continuous audit approach is that it:

C.

places the responsibility for enforcement and monitoring of controls on the

security department instead of audit.




D.

simplifies the extraction and correlation of data from multiple and complex

systems.

A. The continuous audit approach often does require an IS auditor to collect

evidence on system reliability while processing is taking place.
