    The Practical Risk-Based IT Auditing Master Class is a comprehensive, 2-day live online training workshop delivered via Zoom. It is designed to equip participants with the practical knowledge and skills needed to conduct high-impact, risk-based IT audits in today’s complex regulatory landscape.

    The course is built entirely around a single, immersive Fintech case study: a mobile app serving global retail clients for instant payments, wallet services, and cross-border transfers. The company uses cloud infrastructure with a mature DevOps model, has achieved ISO 27001 certification, and is actively preparing for a PCI-DSS compliance assessment.

    This virtual master class focuses on proven techniques, methodologies, and best practices for auditing IT controls, with a strong emphasis on NIST Cybersecurity Framework (CSF) 2.0, SEC cybersecurity disclosure requirements, cloud computing risks (AWS environments and DevOps), and privacy/data protection challenges.

    Through interactive sessions, hands-on Excel tools, role-plays, and real-world audit artifacts (mobile app mock-ups, DevOps artifacts, and cloud environment screenshots), participants will master how to plan, scope, execute, and report IT audits that support business and compliance objectives.
