Internal Audit Support

For Internal Audit organizations, the skill sets and experience required for each audit engagement can vary greatly. As a result, Internal Audit does not always have the proper knowledge or expertise needed for some security, risk and compliance-related engagements.     

Dell SecureWorks’ Internal Audit Support services provide security and risk expertise to extend the capabilities of your Internal Audit team. We offer a wide range of services, from information technology auditing to compliance auditing to information security program development services, helping Internal Audit professionals evaluate risk, improve business processes and meet project timelines.

Dell SecureWorks’ Internal Audit Support services help you:

Complement and extend Internal Audit’s capabilities

Leading Internal Audit organizations have advanced risk-based models that rank business operations by predetermined risk factors. Internal Audit then uses the rankings to schedule audit projects. The skill sets required and the timing for each project can vary greatly. As a result, Internal Audit is always grappling with resource allocation and having the right Information Security resources available when they are needed. 

Dell SecureWorks’ Internal Audit Support service provides security and risk expertise, including information technology auditing and compliance audit services, to extend the capabilities of your Internal Audit team. Our security and risk consultants bring extensive knowledge and experience evaluating security controls in place to address both internal and external risk factors. Our consultants can also develop Audit and Information Technology Audit programs for Internal Audit organizations.

Get access to a much larger security organization

Often, Information Technology Auditing security professionals must rely on conference and education venues to stay on top of new security trends and practices. This can prove challenging when those same professionals are tasked with additional responsibilities that distract from a disciplined focus on security, or discretionary budget limitations prohibit travel and training  expenses.

Dell SecureWorks’ Internal Audit Support services provide access to a much larger security organization. Dell SecureWorks’ security consultants possess up-to-date visibility into evolving security threats and access to our top security, risk and compliance experts across our Counter Threat Unit(sm) research team, Security Operations Centers and Security & Risk Consulting practice. Our resident security consultants leverage this visibility and access , bringing this expertise to your situation.

Assist Internal Audit with compliance with industry regulations

Internal Audit performs very diverse duties. Because Internal Audit projects can span all areas of an organization, Internal Auditors are often challenged to be experts in all things. This can be especially true for compliance, where requirements are lengthy and can change from year to year. The auditor performing an attestation may be new and unfamiliar with legislative or industry compliance requirements, and changes from the prior year. 

Dell SecureWorks provides the knowledge and expertise to assist your organization with its compliance efforts. From developing detailed compliance programs to performing compliance audits, our security and risk consultants work closely with your Internal Audit team to assess and establish effective policies and controls.

Our consultants are highly experienced security and compliance experts, and take a "security first" approach to engagements. They stay abreast of changes across various compliance frameworks such as PCI, GLBA, FISMA, HIPAA, etc. They know where to look for compliance gaps with applicable mandates and recommend remediation steps to remediate those gaps.
