This audit sought to examine the entity’s IT operations, optimise the entity’s IT-enabled investments and ensure that IT is successful in delivering the business requirements. The aim of this report is to collect and analyse evidence to determine whether the Housing Authority has the necessary controls to ensure that their IT and Information Systems maintain data integrity, safeguard assets, allow organisational goals to be achieved effectively and assist in making efficient use of the Government IT related resources. This report identifies potential risks and makes recommendations to mitigate those risks.
