Earlier in my career I was an IT auditor (starting with Coopers & Lybrand). In fact, I was a bit of a techie and trailblazer when it came to understanding how the operating and related systems could affect the operation of applications and, therefore, business operations.
I had some fun with this when the IT audit leaders in France contradicted me. I wrote a simple RPG ii program then compiled and ran it twice. I changed a couple of lines in the Linkage Editor so that the results were different.
IT audit has been a passion of mine for many years, so I was interested to see Deloitte s piece, The Future of IT Audit.
