      Preface

      Laws continue to be enacted, and the regulatory environment has become more complex due to unacceptable conduct remediation. Consequently, entities continue to be compelled to demonstrate compliance with legal mandates through documented assurance assessments.

      The migration from manual to IT generated information has resulted in verdicts and judgments where liability, guilt, or innocence are based solely or largely on electronically encoded evidence. Reliance on IT generated information as evidence raises issues and challenges from a management perspective that must be addressed through effective governance and audit.

      Assuring IT Legal Compliance was written with the intent to create quality quick reference material for assurance service practitioners. Therefore, this pocket guide is appropriate for entity employees interested in ensuring, or verifying, IT legal compliance in any industry or geographic location. As for content; Audit Managers, Chief Compliance Officers, Chief Information Officers, Chief Information Security Officers, Auditors, Information Security professionals, and Control Self Assessment personnel will find this pocket guide an informative, and authoritative, IT legal compliance document.
