ITPEC FE Morning April 2019 — Question 60 of 80

System Audit (IT Internal Control) — A system audit evaluates and verifies internal controls related to IT systems.

The correct answer is a): Methods for ensuring accuracy in database input and update processes are a classic example of IT internal control — they deal with data integrity, validation, and correctness within an information system.

Why not the others:
- b) Mid-term business plan creation is a strategic planning activity, not an IT control

- c) Employee personnel evaluations belong to HR processes, unrelated to IT systems

- d) Production equipment review for defect reduction is a manufacturing/quality control process, not IT-related

Key rule: System audits focus on controls within IT systems — data input accuracy, access controls, processing integrity, and system security. If the option involves databases, information systems, or IT processes, it falls under system audit scope.
