ISACA enables better social media governance

09.03.2011
Information Systems Audit and Control Association (ISACA) has issued a new customisable audit program to help enterprises address the challenges associated with social media governance.

ISACA is a global provider of knowledge, certifications, community, advocacy and education on information systems (IS) assurance and security, enterprise governance and management of IT, and IT-related risk and compliance.

The organisation notes the importance of social media governance for enterprises that aim to strike a right balance between transparency and control of these tools.

ISACA's new audit program is available at www.isaca.org/auditprograms and focuses on effective policies, training and awareness, and monitoring.

Guidelines and direction

Enterprises can use the audit programs as a road map to complete a specific process as these provide guidelines and direction for the practice of IT audit and assurance.
