IT Risk/Audit Transformation
How to stay relevant as an IT Risk/Audit professional in an agile and DevOps setting?
Assurance functions like IT risk management and IT audit face a huge challenge to provide assurance on new IT risks, increasing IT automation and renewed IT operating models. As the conventional IT controls are replaced by high-level IT automation, assurance functions are required to re-design their IT risk management and IT control frameworks to remain relevant. This requires new knowledge and skills to assess the risks. This training helps you to require the necessary skills and insights.
"Conventional IT risk and control frameworks are not ‘fit for purpose’ anymore”.
