An information systems audit (IS audit or IT audit) is an independent review of an organisation's IT controls - access management, data security, change management, backup and recovery, and systems reliability - conducted per relevant professional standards, typically by an IT audit professional with CISA-level expertise.

No. SOC 2 reports and ISO 27001 certificates must be issued by an accredited certification body. Our information systems audit is an independent controls review and gap assessment that prepares you for that formal certification process - it is not a substitute for it.

The review is conducted by IT audit professionals, working per relevant professional IS audit standards - the kind of review typically associated with CISA (Certified Information Systems Auditor)-level expertise.

Core areas include access controls (who can access what systems and data), data security practices, change management (how system changes are approved and tracked), backup and disaster recovery, and overall systems reliability.

Pricing starts from ₹19,999 for a focused, narrow-scope review and scales up to a custom quote (typically from ₹99,999) for a full certification-readiness assessment, depending on your systems landscape and the depth of review required.

No. An information systems audit is a professional advisory service, not a government filing or registration - there is no statutory or government fee involved.

A focused review on a narrow scope typically takes 2-4 weeks. A full certification-readiness assessment across multiple systems and domains can take longer, depending on how quickly evidence and access can be provided.

No. A penetration test actively attempts to exploit vulnerabilities in your systems from an attacker's perspective. An IS audit is a controls-and-process review - it checks whether appropriate access, change management, and security controls exist and are being followed. The two are complementary but different engagements.

It's not mandatory, but strongly recommended. A pre-certification gap assessment identifies where your current controls fall short of ISO 27001 requirements, so you can close gaps before the formal certification audit, reducing the risk of findings or delays during certification.

ITGC review is the component of a statutory financial audit that checks whether the IT systems supporting financial reporting have reliable controls around access, change management, and operations. We can conduct or support this review to strengthen the IT controls component of your broader statutory audit.

Yes. Even small companies handling customer data, especially SaaS and fintech businesses, benefit from an independent access and security controls review - client security questionnaires and early-stage due diligence don't wait for you to reach enterprise scale.

At minimum: a list of your key systems and applications, access control lists for critical systems, and change management records for a sample period. IT policies, backup/DR documentation, and prior audit reports strengthen the review where available.

Yes, cloud infrastructure access controls, configuration, and security practices are typically included in scope where your systems are cloud-hosted, as part of the broader access and data security review.

We walk you through the risk-ranked findings on a call and hand over a remediation roadmap. You can act on it internally, or engage us for follow-on support on specific remediation items or a subsequent certification-readiness assessment.

A statutory financial audit examines your financial statements, with an IT general controls (ITGC) review as one supporting component. An information systems audit is a dedicated, deeper review focused specifically on IT controls, data security, and systems reliability - useful on its own for certification readiness or client due diligence, beyond what a standard ITGC review covers.
