Emerging Hot Issues
Fortifying your defenses The role of internal audit in assuring data security and privacy
PwC
CEOs/Boards are no longer ignoring Information and Technology (I&T) Risks
I&T Risk is an enterprise-wide issue. Specific types of risks organizations are facing include:
• Connected IT infrastructure exists in an environment that is increasingly under threat against unauthorized access or disclosure of sensitive data and attacks originating from cyber-criminal groups and hackers.
• Increase in Privacy and Security regulatory mandates in recent years, as well as expected changes in upcoming years.
• Boards are no longer willing to accept the risk that technology can pose to the business.
• Growing demand by business leaders to understand how security integrates with privacy (“what” data is sensitive to the business) and security (“how” they protect the data deemed sensitive).
• Increase in threats and vulnerabilities to sensitive data and corporate assets.
• Businesses continue to struggle to maintain accountability to their stakeholders and establish effective strategies and standards for security risk management and privacy control activities.

Change and Complexity is Right Around the CornerSecurity and Privacy Hot Topics: Balancing Business Enablers vs Business Risks
10
Organizations looking to improve privacy management in the event of a breach have to continually plan and prepare.
Organizations in all industries are under increased scrutiny by regulatory governance bodies.
While risks associated with third parties and cloud computing continue to increase, many companies are less prepared to defend their data.
Privacy and Data Loss Prevention
Regulatory Compliance
Third Parties and Cloud Computing
Companies need to stay informed about the constantly changing threat environment, processes to identify potential vulnerabilities, and processes to resolve potential exposures.
Mobile platforms, social media, and accelerated product life cycles are just the latest contributors to risk of an enterprise.
The cyber threat landscape continues to yield an increasingly sophisticated underworld of criminals. Companies need to remain prepared for such cyber crises.

Acting today to protect data: The critical role ofinternal audit
12
What the audit committee should expect of internal audit
In the risk assessment report that it presents to the audit committee, internal audit should highlight the organization’s significant data security and privacy risks, including any new risks. Further, it should identify weaknesses in policies and controls.
Because the nature of information security risks is evolving continuously, internal audit functions need to stay ahead of the threat curve. stay plugged in to emerging security threats, and practices for protecting against them.
Internal audit’s role in ensuring that information security threats are properly considered becomes especially important when a company is ready to roll out a new business process, product or information system.
Internal Audit must also keep its ear to the ground and move quickly to conduct special audits for new information security threats, which some executives consider as important as regularly scheduled audits

Strengthen the Annual Risk Assessment to be relevant
Having the right people
Stay vigilant on key or triggering events
PwC
Overcoming the barriers to internal audit playing an effective roleEffective data privacy and security measures are not easy to effect. In fact, we commonly find four barriers in organizations that try to adopt them.
13
Exposures are changing constantly,policies and controls need to changealongside them.
A mindset that believes adequatecontrols are already in place.
1
Implement cost/benefit analysis in risk assessment to assesses potential damage of various types of security breach.
Cost. Achieving and maintainingeffective information security cancost significant money and effort.
2
Hiring & training staff to be top of their game in this arena and/or outsourcing as needed to experts that have technical skills
Low expectations. Internal Audit not viewed as capable of assessing complex security and privacy topics.
3
Establish responsibility and accountability. Define and assign a single point of responsibility for information security.
Fragmented responsibilities. The job of maintaining effective information security controls is often split among many stakeholders

Benefits of Analyzing Data
21
Benefits of Analyzing Data
Approach BenefitProfiling and trending • Focus on specific areas of risk or interest
• Provide insights into transactional history and behavior• Test internal controls effectiveness• Identify hidden relationships between people, organizations
and events
Customized transactional analysis
• Geared towards a clients specific business process• Reduction in manual testing procedures• Perform proactive instead of reactive audits• Identify potentially improper or fraudulent transactions

traditional sampling approach• Focus on risk!
Report re-performance and metric recalculation
• Validate operational reporting systems and assist in the documentation of current reporting process
• Reduce manual testing procedures
22
Type of Data Analysis
23
Computer Aided Audit
1) Ad-Hoc Query: One time based specific analytic query or analysis at a point of time. No intention of repetitive testing Explorative and investigative
2) Repetitive: Periodic analysis of processes from multiple data resources
Periodical Seek to improve the efficiency , consistency, and quality of audits
24
Continuous Audit
1) Definition: The independent application of automated tools to provide assurance on financial, compliance, strategic and operational data within a company.
2) Nature: Automated Continuous basis – Specified intervals Constantly search for errors, fraud and inefficiencies Advanced analytic tool involved: SAS and ACL
3) Example: Automated A/P review Automated J/E review Operational process review
25
What are Companies Doing?
1) 25% have CA programs in 2009, compared to 11% in 2006 *
2) Benefits listed by survey participants : Auditors are aware of issues as they occur 100 percent of the population rather than a sample is evaluated Allow to create preventive controls for process owners
3) Challenges listed by survey participants: Implementation takes long Auditors need to have detailed knowledge of the underlying data
structures to use the tool correctly Auditors and business owners have to the determine parameters
used in the CA program
Note: Statistic is based on IIA survey

Case Study 1 – SAS Medical Claims Denials
Analytics
Note: Numbers or findings have no meaning beyond being placeholders for the given example
27
Steps
1) Audit Planning2) Data Readiness3) Data Analysis4) Risk based Sampling5) Substantive Testing6) Communication of Results
28
Audit Planning
1) Establish Testing Period: Jan to June of 20122) Determine Scope: all medical claims denied from Jan to June of 20123) Determine Frequency: quarterly4) Define Audit Objective: Ensure claims were appropriately denied
as per provider contract, member benefit and regulation5) Select Audit Methodology:
Perform data analysis to identify high risk denial areas Perform risk based sampling and substantive testing
6) Know your Deliverables: An excel based deck to present data analysis results An audit report to communicate findings of substantive testing
29
Data Readiness
1) Request Data: Pull data directly from corporate data marts Work with IT to extract relative data
2) Data Reconciliation Control total Key fields (numeric fields) tie-out
3) Data Quality Test Duplicate records Missing values of key fields Invalid value of key fields. For example, billed date of
01/32/2012; negative co-pay/deductable amount
30
Data Analysis Steps
1)Research the relative areas of high risks by partnering with business owners
Measurement of compliance risk: system days per claimMeasurement of operational risk:
locations per claimdenial ratio at provider level
Measurement of financial risk: billed amount /claim2)Design the profiling tests in relation to specific risks
Determine the list of testsMap test to risk(s)
3)Develop testing routines in SAS4)Review the data analysis results with business owners
31
Data Analysis – Profiling Tests
1)Population overview
2)Trend analysis of denial rate
3)Trend analysis of system date
4)Dollar stratification
5)Location count stratification
6)Profiling of providers (hospitals)
7)Profiling of explanation of benefit (EOB) codes
32
Data Analysis - RPM
33
Population Overview
The average billed amount for denied claims is significant higher than paid claims Denied claims take longer to process compared to paid claim Denied claims go through more locations to complete
34
Trend Analysis – Denial Rate
Facility (hospital) denial rate is significantly higher compared to overall average Denial rate in May 2012 is high driven by the higher denial rate of facility claims
35
Trend Analysis – System Day
Manual claims take longer by the processing system to reject or pay. Correlation exists between denial rate and manual system days in May May population is worth to look into
36
Stratification
Yellow strata subjects to risk based sampling while purple might need drill down Auditors may design strata according to relative limit approval controls
Dollar Stratification
Stratification on location

1) Risk score is calculated for each claim
2) Total risk score is the sum of risk weight for each failed / hit profiling tests
3) Samples were selected from the claims with higher risk scores
4) Auditors professional judgment plays an important role on finalizing samples
5) Average number of risks tested per sample is 5.56
41
Communication of Findings
Finding 1:
During the data analysis, Internal Audit noted that 11% denied claims do nothave explanation of benefit (EOB) codes. This was a result of an incorrect fieldmapping between the claims processing system and Claims data mart.
Finding 2:
During the data analysis and the subsequent detail testing, Internal Audit notedthat the denial rate for hospital #2 in May is significant higher than other periodsand other hospitals. This was a result of an insufficient communication on thechanged provider contracts.

What is Fraud and Why is it an Important Concern?
What is Fraud?
As defined by the Institute of Internal Auditors:
“Any illegal acts characterized by deceit, concealment or violation of trust. These acts are not dependent upon the application of threat of violence or of physical force. Frauds are perpetrated by parties and organizations to obtain money, property or services; to avoid payment or loss of services; or to secure personal or business advantage.”
Types of Fraud
Internal: illegal acts of employees, managers and executives against the company
External: illegal acts of outsiders (non-employees) against a company
The activity:◦ Is clandestine◦ Violates the perpetrator’s fiduciary duties to the victim
organization◦ Is committed for the purpose of direct or indirect financial
benefit to the perpetrator◦ Costs the employing organization assets, revenue or
reserves

Statistics from the 2012 ACFE Report to the Nation on Fraud
The Fraudster – How Old?
Statistics from the 2012 ACFE Report to the Nation on Fraud
Typical Fraudster – On the Surface
Long-time employee Position of trust Appears to be extremely
dedicated Unexplained cash or other
wealth Always willing to help out
and put in extra hours
Typical Fraudster – Beneath the Surface
Gambler Drug or alcohol problem Behavioral changes Extramarital affairs Hostility to management General disenchantment with compensation
The Fraudster – Educational Background
Statistics from the 2012 ACFE Report to the Nation on Fraud
The Fraudster – Effects of Tenure
Direct correlation between length of time employed and size of fraud losses
Employees with 10 or more years of tenure caused median fraud losses of $229,000
Employees with less than one year of tenure caused median fraud losses of $25,000
Statistics from the 2012 ACFE Report to the Nation on Fraud
The Fraudster – Effects Of Gender
Male perpetrators accounted for 65% of cases with median fraud losses of $200,000
Female perpetrators accounted for 35% of cases with median fraud losses of $91,000
Statistics from the 2012 ACFE Report to the Nation on Fraud
The “10-80-10” Rule
10% of the Population:
Would never engage in illegal conduct.
80% of the Population:Might engage in illegal conduct.
10% of the Population: Deviants
and always on the lookout to cheat, steal,
etc. (regardless of profession).
The Fraudster – How do they Attempt to Fool, Distract and Undermine an Auditor?
Overloading. Attaching false time
frames. Taking advantage of
perceived fears. Killing time with trivia. Exploiting expected
scopes. Exploiting historically
low-risk areas.
Statistics from the 2012 ACFE Report to the Nation on Fraud
• Exploiting complex areas.• Predicting cycle audits.• Stalling.• Making staff unavailable.• Filtering of information.• Not updating procedures.• Discrediting the auditor.
How to Address
Maintain an attitude of professional skepticism Investigate what does not make sense If it seems to good to be true, it usually is – trust your
instincts Beware of trust over reason Avoid placing faith in other people’s faith
◦ Verify and corroborate Good interviewing and observation skills are key Look for signs of deceptive behavior Do not ignore information or data
Fraud Risk Assessment, Schemes and Red Flags
Internal Audit Plan
The plan should be:◦ Dynamic/Flexible.◦ Comprehensive/Complete.
It integrates fraud risk assessment, appropriate cycle rotations, and management insight.
It directs resources to areas with highest risk.
Fraud Risk Assessment Approach
1. Evaluate
Fraud Risk Factors
3. Analyze Fraud Risks and Schemes
and Evaluate Mitigating Controls
4. Evaluate Fraud Risk Assessment
Results and Prioritize Residual
Fraud Risks
2. Identify Possible Fraud Schemes and
Scenarios
Design Tests to Identify Fraud
Color By Numbers Approach Creativity and Thought Approach
What Are The Hallmarks Of An Effective FRA?
• Is systematic and recurring.• Is dynamic and is updated when new or unique circumstances
arise (e.g., changed operating environments, restructurings, acquisitions), at least annually.
• Is performed with the involvement of appropriate personnel.• Considers possible internal and external fraud schemes and
scenarios.• Considers management override (e.g., journal entries, bias of
estimates, non-routine transactions).• Assesses risk at organization-wide, significant business unit,
and significant account levels.• Consider historical fraud or industry fraud risks.• Results are monitored by the Audit Committee/Board.
Indicators in Practical Use
Where is the potential for fraud (according to interview results and survey responses)
Areas where fraud has been detected Manual and complex processes. Timing to register transactions Process involving cash management Unclear – who reviews and who approves Lack of controls – or knowledge of procedures
Valuable Soft Skills for an Internal Auditor
Think like a fraudster. Facilitate a control self assessment. Use information gathering techniques. Communicate and build rapport. All segments of an audit are connected. Use an unpredictable and flexible audit approach. Perform and understand data analytics. Don’t lead the interviewee. Pay attention to the details.

Internal Auditor Proficiency Standard
Internal auditors must have sufficient knowledge to evaluate the risk of fraud and the manner in which it is managed by the organization, but are not expected to have the expertise of a person whose primary responsibility is detecting and investigating fraud.
Source: The Institute of Internal Auditors International Standards for the Professional Practice of Internal Auditing (www.theiia.org)
When Does an Internal Audit Become a Fraud Investigation?
Expand sample, expand scope, or perform additional procedures. Look for additional instances or patterns.
Ask additional questions framed in the context of the internal audit (e.g., how could a situation like this occur?).
Maintain copies of documents and data files that support the red flags and symptoms of fraud.
When possible, maintain originals of documents. Any indication of potential perpetrators? Cease audit work if there appears to be a predication
for suspecting fraud.
Forensic Accounting vs. Financial Audit
Forensic Investigation Audit
Mindset • All cases may end in litigation
• Professional Skepticism
Frequency • Non-recurring; random • Recurring; scheduled
Approach • No management planning session
• Limited notification
• Meet with management to plan and scope the audit
Relationship • Potentially adversarial • Professional skepticism
Scope • Document examination of particular issue;
• Review of outside data, interviews of potential persons of interest.
• Analysis of financial statements and/or other financial data;
• Interviews with management.
Work Programs • Programs developed and amended as needed
• Audit programs
“Employer” • Client’s Attorney, In-House Counsel, Special Committee
• Audit Committee/Client Management
Objective • Identify responsible parties;
• Quantify damages
• Issue an opinion on the client’s financial statements and related disclosures
Report Audience • Report is presented to counsel
• Opinions used by Board of Directors/Audit Committee/Shareholders/Public
Benefits of a Fraud Response Plan
Standardized response. Consistent approach. Clarified roles and responsibilities. Internal and external reporting responsibilities. Process for consensus and agreement.

Top Ten Emerging IT Audit Issues
2:10 – 3:00pm
Michael JuergensDeloitte & Touche LLP
Overview IT controls continue to increase in
importance to organizations◦ Corporate reliance on technology increases◦ Compliance requirements increase
Deficiencies in IT controls can have a significant impact on the organization
IT Audits
Where We Have Been
Where We Need To Be
Top 10 IT audit issues By no means a comprehensive list Will vary by environment
◦ May be greater/lesser risk depending on industry, technology, business processes etc.
This list is based on what we see in the marketplace
Designed to get you thinking about your environments and if currently scheduled IT audit procedures will evaluate these risks
List is in no particular order
1. Omnichannel CommerceIssueTraditional “bricks and mortar” channels are merging with e-commerce channels to create a single integrated approach to sales.
Risk Failure to evolve could impact long term enterprise viability Will change sales approach and systems Large integration and master data concerns
RecommendationUnderstand current and planned changes to sales channels. Determine impact on systems, specific transactions processed, accounts impacted, and master data. Evaluate risk and then plan and execute audit procedures accordingly.
2. Cyber Security Reporting
IssueAs of October 2011, the SEC now requires public companies to disclose the risk of cyber incidents as part of Management’s Discussion and Analysis if "these issues are among the most significant factors that make an investment in the company speculative or risky."
Risk Failure to comply with SEC reporting requirements Exposure to potential shareholder litigation if requirement not met Audit Committee exposureRecommendationChallenge is that the reporting requirement lacks specificity. Organizations must determine what to report, if anything. Therefore, organizations must have a process for identifying exposures, evaluating impact, and then reporting and disclosing appropriately. IT audit should perform an assessment of this process to determine if it exists, and how comprehensive it is. Additional steps should be taken to evaluate how effective the process is.
3. Software Asset Management
IssueSoftware licensing contracts are complicated, and software lifecycles are complex. Economic downturn has caused software vendors to aggressively pursue licensing audits.
Risk Potential significant financial liabilities in case of an audit Loss of potential savings Failure to “sunset” unused applications
RecommendationPerform a software asset management (SAM) audit. Consider use of International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and Information Technology Information Library (ITIL) SAM standards. Audit should include evaluating the process for SAM, review of contracts and software license baselines, and analysis of non-essential software and patch deployment.
4. Payment ProcessingIssueEmerging methods of payment processing (ISIS, GoogleWallet, PayPal).
Risk Failure to adopt impacts potential revenue Impact on revenue cycle processes, systems and controls
RecommendationDetermine what changes are planned or underway to adopting new payment processing technologies. Determine impact on financial systems and processes (e.g. sales audit). Evaluate integration management. Identify new security and controls considerations and execute audit steps accordingly.
5. Hyper-Hybrid CloudIssueAdoption of heterogeneous cloud solutions creates significant issues with management and integration of processes and data, as well as leads to the need for deployment of additional management solutions.
Risk Master data proliferation and management Disparate cloud solutions impact business processes Security management becomes much more complex e.g. Security Assertion
Markup Language (SAML), OpenID Need for effective service lifecycle management increases
RecommendationUnderstand current and planned cloud services grid, and specific business control points, integration and workflow. Understand security management strategy, and deployment of new technologies/standards. Determine process and data risk and identify/test controls. Evaluate Service Organization Control (SOC) reports for vendors.
6. Data Lifecycle Management (DLM)
Issue2011 saw the emergence of new regulations and legislation for records management and data retention. Regulators have significantly increased their scrutiny of the data lifecycle space.
Risk Large potential financial penalties for non-compliance Impact on brand Impact on customers and vendors
RecommendationGain an understanding of how DLM is operationalized throughout the organization, DLM awareness levels and how DLM compliance is achieved. Evaluate the organization’s DLM capability maturity and identify compliance gaps related to the DLM governance structure, policies, processes and procedures
7. End User Computing (EUC)
IssueSignificant increase in evaluation of spreadsheets and other end user computing solutions by auditors and regulators. Additional regulations promulgated (e.g. Solvency II). Uncontrolled EUCs still impacting financial statements and business operations.
Risk Loss of critical data Potentially inaccurate financial or management reporting Exposure to regulatory sanctions or fines
RecommendationPerform an extensive EUC audit. Evaluate criteria such as criticality determination, governance model, and use of technical accelerators. Audits should also evaluate programming structure. A policy-based audit and/or access based audit is likely insufficient.
8. IT GovernanceIssueIT Governance continues to play a large role in aligning the proliferation and use of technology with organizational objectives. Also, Institute of Internal Auditors (IIA) Standard 2210.A2 states: “The internal audit activity must assess whether the information technology governance of the organization sustains and supports the organization’s strategies and objectives.
Risk Noncompliance with IIA standards Potential misalignment of IT resources with organization strategy
RecommendationAssess capabilities across IT governance capabilities: Strategic Alignment, Risk Management, Value Delivery, Performance Management and Resource Management. Establish a baseline of understanding regarding current capabilities and maturity level of IT governance processes.
9. Digital IdentityIssueDeployment of emerging technologies and unification of internal/external systems creates significant identity sprawl, and difficulties managing across platforms, applications and networks. To be efficient and compliant, federated identities are emerging. Our IT access audits and analysis are becoming more reliant on review-based controls.
Risk Unauthorized access to data or transactions Regulatory fines or litigation Brand impact
RecommendationUnderstand corporate security perspective on identity management. Inventory systems, devices and technologies currently deployed or planned (consider external sources as well). Evaluate strategy and technical solutions for managing digital identity. Perform a detailed audit of critical technologies and controls.
10. Product DuplicationIssueProliferation of cheap 3D printing technology makes it possible to easily duplicate certain consumer products
Risk Loss of sales, market share Impact on brand
RecommendationUnderstand current product mix; identify products susceptible to duplication (small, higher value items are typical). Understand security and controls around schematics. Peruse pirate sites to identify proliferation of schematics. Consult with loss prevention teams to understand approach to managing remote duplication.
Summary Need to understand which items may be
relevant in your business and technical environment
Ensure that risk assessment and audit universe address relevant items
Don’t walk the plank alone – communicate with management and the audit committee
Plan resource requirements◦ Be careful not to underestimate

First Impressions
Key to effective communication is to understand the style or method of communication desired by the auditee
The auditee’s behavior style is key! Ineffective communication typically results
when an auditor communicates in THEIR style vs. the AUDITEES desired style
Personality Analysis – Intro to DISC
The DISC profile is a simple tool to understand your behavior style and how to best work with others (e.g. SPOUSE!)
No behavior style is right/wrong – the key is to understand how to communicate effectively with others
DISC Profile
Select a word that MOST describes you and a word that LEAST describes you
Put an M/L next to the word – DO NOT put a big “X” for example in the MOST/LEAST column
Use a coin to gently rub the rectangle after the word in the MOST/LEAST columns
Tally up the results in the tally box on page 5
Fill out graphs I, II, and III
Steps to filling out the DISC Profile
Each style has its strengths, weaknesses, and needs – a weakness is an “overextension” of a style’s strength
There are typically key success factors in communicating to different styles
Understanding how to “match styles” is important – “evolve” if necessary
Good questions to ask different styles
Note: refer to handouts which overviews these four areas
Understanding the DISC Profile
How do you communicate if you are presenting to two different styles (e.g. D & C)
Do not assume that all executives are “D’s” and all auditors are “C’s”
How can you assess a person’s behavior style by looking at their office (or other factors)
What have you learnt about yourself? Key potential next steps
DISC Discussion Points
Friendliness/Rapport◦Warmth◦Connection◦Assertiveness
Flow of Conversation – Comfort Professionalism and preparedness Reassurance/Implications
Building Trust
Fear of the consequences Focus on what you need to know Professional reassurance – rationalism,
unbiased How to know if you are always getting the
truth?Sweaty palms?Hesitation?Avoidance of eye contact?
Getting The Truth
• Tough to tell the difference between lies and an honest person under stress
• Indicators of lying:◦ Level of detail being provided◦ Tone of voice, unusual body language◦ Inconsistency when changing viewpoints◦ Concealment of anger, distress or fear◦ Lifting just the inner part of the eyebrow
(Distress>85%)◦ Eyebrows raised and pulled together (Fear)◦ Narrowed, tightened lips or lopsided smile (Anger)
• No absolute clues to lying, only indicators.
Lies
