What should an IT auditor do when an assessment of input controls identify that procedures exist that allow supervisory override of data validation efforts?
Ensure that overrides are automatically logged and subject to review.
Validate if all such overrides are referred to senior management for approval.
Advisethat overrides not be permitted.
Not be concerned since there may be other compensating controls to mitigate the risk.
If input procedures allow overrides of data validation and editing, automatic logging should occur. A management individual who did not initiate the override should review this log. An IS auditor should not assume that compensating controls exist. As long as the overrides are policy-compliant, there is no need for senior management approval or a blanket prohibition.
