Reading the Audit — What a Cybersecurity Audit Is, and What Its Findings Actually Mean

You have been told you need a cybersecurity audit, or a report has landed on your desk. What an audit is, why independence and the standard matter, what a finding really means, why it is a sample at a point in time and not a guarantee, and how to act on it.

What you'll learn

• Say what a cybersecurity audit is, and tell it from a scan, a test, and a sales pitch.
• See that an audit measures you against a named standard, and tell a control existing from a control that works.
• Read a finding as the product of the audit and use its severity, without panic or defensiveness.
• Understand an audit as a sample at a point in time giving reasonable assurance, and turn findings into a plan that protects the firm.
