Description

The ability to assess and pivot as new risks are uncovered or emerge is a necessity for today’s internal audit departments. Since traditional audit methodologies stifle this ability, agile auditing has become the de facto response for teams looking to be more nimble. Left unmentioned is that while agile methodology is well known within software development circles, many internal audit practitioners are unsure of where to begin with agile. Are scrum and kanban the best project management approaches? Or can we reimagine the possibilities of what agile means to audit? Join Melissa Pici, Senior IT Audit Manager at Syniverse to explore the possibilities of agile and how teams large and small can easily implement the practice to immediately begin delivering additional value and insights to executives and management.
