If you were not an IT auditor, what would you be? That's a tough question. If I were financially able to not work, I'd be volunteering somewhere for some cause. Outside of that, being an auditor has been very good to me, and I'll probably finish my career as one unless there's an ideal job within IT that has my name on it.

How does the future look for your role? The future looks bright. Most organizations can't live without technology and, as a result, must have adequate technology controls in place to ensure the achievement of their business goals. Unless the business community goes back to quill and parchment and the running courier, there will always be a place for the IT auditor.
