  • The objectives of this study are to suggest and empirically prove the relationship model for investigating influence factors on the use of EDP audit techniques, and to identify moderating effects of the task types of EDP audit on the relationships between the influence factors and the use of EDP audit techniques. The results of the empirical test suggested that there are significant (positive or negative) correlations between the use of some EDP audit techniques and the influence factors, such as audit education, auditor's familiarity and age, and effectiveness of the technique, etc. The significant differences in the use of EDP audit techniques were empirically proved in the ratio of audit fees and the audit structure. It was also proved that the relationships between the use of techniques and the influence factors are different according to the task types of EDP audit. This study proposed the technique and the auditor related implications of these findings for the successful fulfilment of EDP audit.

  • SHS(Ship-Handling Simulator) is virtual generation of vessel traffic situation under various environmental conditions. Recent, with the introduction of MSA(Maritime Safety Audit), SHS is being used as a key facility to determine the safety of navigation. However, the current audit techniques specified in the implementation guidance of MSA have been prepared by generalizing common procedures and evaluation methods used by institutions operating simulator systems. Therefore, they need to be reviewed and supplemented. This study analyzed the adequacy of current audit techniques based on the limitations and problems, then suggested the advanced scheme of SHS such as standardization of ship models, standard manoeuvring and evaluation method. The results of this research will contribute to improving the quantification and reliability of audit techniques used in the MSA as well as upgrading of the simulator system.

  • As the dependence on information systems in enterprises has grown dramatically, the importance of implementing information systems in audit has been increased as well. However, there is a lact of about utilization of information system for audit process. Thus, this study is to investigate the factors that effect auditor's adopting Data Analytics to audit work. Through literature research and focus group interview, we added two factors that affect the behavioral intention to UTAUT model. We have selected performance expectancy, effort expectancy, social influence, facilitating conditions, anxiety, task fit, behavioral intention as variables and verified hypotheses based on survey questionnaires from auditors. As a result, it was found that performance expectations, social influence, task fit influenced the behavior intention. In Addition, we analyzed adding two variables, IT-related work experience and type of auditor as moderate variable. This study has an implication for companies to motivate implementation as well as activation of Data Analytics technique.

  • The National Computerization Agency has been leading the Information Systems(IS) audit since 1987, as development of IS projects in governmental and public sectors have become daily issues. While many considerations on audit guidelines and techniques for quality management in IS have been given to respond to the fast increasing demand of audit process since mid 1990's, the study on the fact that how audit activities directly affect the quality of software process has been put aside. In this paper, we went through 74 audit results, which were reported by H auditing organization, and performed on 59 IS projects carried on 1999 through 2001. As a result of study, we found that more than one fourth of errors of Coding and Test phases are caused in the earlier phases, which naturally leads to the conclusions that auditing on earlier phases can save a lot of stitches in the later phases. Comparing two types of IS projects-the one that went through only one audit process, and the other that went through two audit processes-, we found that projects with two audits carry less errors on Planning, Analysis, Design phases as a whole, which revealed the facts that IS audit actually gives positive effects on the quality of software.

  • Information technology has been made remarkable progress and most of computer systems are connected with internet over the world. We have not only advantages to access them easy, but also disadvantages to misuse information, abuse, crack, and damage privacy. We should have safeguards to preserve confidentiality, integrity and availability for our information system. Even tough the security is very important for the defense information system, we should not over limit users availability. BS7799, a British standard, is an evaluation criteria for information security management. In this paper we propose an audit model to manage and audit information security using control items of BS7799, which could be useful to mange the defence information system security. We standardize audit items, and classify them by levels, and degrees by using appropriate audit techniques / methods / processes.

  • Compared to the U.S. Government Accountability Office(GAO) and the U.K. National Audit Office(NAO), the Board of Audit and Inspection of Korea(BAI) has not laid a rather solid system for effective assessment and judgment on the reliability of computer-processed data used as audit evidence in its public auditing activities. Accordingly, based on the experiences of GAO and NAO, this study suggests criteria and methods as the key elements of the methodological framework for assessing the reliability of information system data. Then, the usefulness and effectiveness of the criteria and techniques for assessing data reliability were tested and proved by applying to the analysis of allotment for mandatory disabled employment data that have been computer-processed and managed by the Korea Employment Agency for the Disabled(KEAD).

  • This study investigates the direct and indirect effects, mediated by audit committee quality, of managerial ownership, institutional ownership, and profitability on intellectual capital (IC) disclosure. The object observed of this study is companies listed on the Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) in the 2014-2018 period that are classified as high intellectual capital-intensive industries. Based on the sampling method, purposive sampling, 51 companies were selected as samples. This study used path analysis techniques with IBM SPSS version 25 to study the direct and indirect influences of managerial ownership, institutional ownership, and profitability toward IC disclosure. The results of this study show that managerial ownership, profitability and audit committee quality have a significant positive effect on IC disclosure whereas institutional ownership has significant negative effect on IC disclosure. This study also provides empirical evidence, supported by the sobel test, that the audit committee quality is able to mediate the effect of institutional ownership and profitability on IC disclosure. However, the audit committee quality is not able to mediate the effect of managerial ownership on IC disclosure. These findings develop and strengthen the results of prior studies related to the implementation of signaling theory and agency theory in devoting more understanding about IC disclosure.
