This is the tenth annual Information Systems Audit Report by my Office. The report summarises the results of the 2017 annual cycle of audits, plus application reviews completed by our Information Systems audit group since last year’s report.
The report is important because it reveals the common information system weaknesses we identified that can seriously affect the operations of government and potentially compromise sensitive information held by agencies. It also contains recommendations that address these common weaknesses and as such, has a use broader than just the agencies we audited.
