Dereck Miller, a first-year auditor, has noted that the IT auditor has evaluated IT general controls (ITGC) as strong. Dereck notes that because ITGC’s are strong, controls over program changes are strong. Therefore, Dereck concludes they don’t need to do additional work to understand internal controls at Cascade Motors.
