RISK RELATED TO E-COM DAN EDP
• IT can improve a company’s internal controls; however,
it can also affect the company's overall control risk.
• If IT systems fail, organizations can be paralyzed by the
inability to retrieve information or by the use of
unreliable information caused by processing errors.
• The following specific risk relating to E-COM and EDP:
1. Risk to hardware and data
2. Reduce audit trail
3. Need for Information Technology (IT) experience and
separation of IT duties
1- RISKS TO HARDWARE AND DATA
• Reliance on hardware and software
– Without proper physical protection, hardware or software may not function or
may function improperly.
• Systematic versus random error
– When organizations replace manual procedures with technology-based
procedures, the risk of random error from human involvement decreases.
However, the risk of systematic error increases because once procedures are
programmed into computer software, the computer processes information
consistently for all transactions.
• Unauthorized access
– IT cased accounting systems often allow online access to electronic data in
master files software and other records. Because online access can occur
from remote access points, there is potential for illegitimate access.
• Data loss
– Since much of the data is stored in centralized electronic files, this increases
the risk of loss or destruction of entire data files.
2- REDUCED AUDIT TRAIL
• Visibility of audit trail
– With the use of computers, IT often reduces or even eliminates
source documents and records that allow the organization to
trace accounting information.
• Reduced human involvement
– In many IT systems, employees who deal with the initial
processing of transactions never see the final results.
Therefore, they are less able to identify mistakes.
• Lack of traditional authorization
– Advanced IT systems can often initiate transactions
automatically, such as calculating interest on savings accounts
and ordering inventory when pre-specified order levels are
reached.
