This is a careful study of an information system by experts in order to establish (or, find out) all the weaknesses in the system that could lead to security threats or act as weak access points for criminals.
An audit of the information system may seek to answer the following questions: -
1. Is the information system meeting all the design objectives as originally intended?
2. Have all the security measures been put in place to reduce the risk of computer crimes?
3. Are the computers secured in physically restricted areas?
4. Is there backup for data & information of the system that can ensure continuity of services even when something serious happens to the current system?
5. What real risks face the system at present or in future?
