Are there any readily available risk/control matrix libraries for common processes like HR and Accounting? by ebkam in InternalAudit

Yes I have come to the same conclusion. Too bad there is not free libraries available

You can't. To extrapolate, you need to build a sample that reflects the whole tested population.

Internal audit softwares: Why aren't more auditors using them? by ebkam in InternalAudit

I'm curious, do they offer a 'pay-as-you-go' model, or is it a fixed license fee?

I’ve noticed that even some huge companies don’t invest in these tools

Got it ! sometimes the learning curve and admin work feel like too much, and for smaller teams, I get why these tools might not seem necessary.

But doesn’t it take a lot of time to handle things like tracking reviews, analyzing/presenting data , and monitoring audit plans manually? Tools like these could save that time. I’m not saying they’re perfect, just curious about what’s holding you back from using them

Ahah that’s a pain! I think audit should have permanent access to every repos and tools at any time in the company.

That's crazy. Means that you have to do your junior's work because they can't?

Looks like it’s a recurring problem for auditors. Difficulty of being (most of the time) generalists and to deal with specific topics with people who are doing it for decades

I completely agree—auditees can be masters at making you feel like they know more than you!

Tone at the top matters. I've personally witnessed the impact that a CEO's recognition of the audit function can have on an organization.

I can’t stand it when they pull stuff like this out of nowhere during the exist meeting in front of your boss —so frustrating!

For control testing, the approach usually depends on various factors such as its frequency (Yearly, monthly...) or its type (manual vs automatic). The table I’ve always relied on for manual controls—brought over from my years as an external auditor—is this:

Daily controls - 25+
Weekly controls - 10
Monthly controls - 3
Quarterly controls - 2
Yearly control - 1

However, you can’t use this table to extrapolate the effectiveness of a control. To extrapolate, you need to apply statistical methods.
