Lately the OSSTMM methodology has been converted into a very good course
called OPST (OSSTMM Professionnal Security Tester).  The course is
delivered in the states by www.intenseschool.com and other providers
worldwide.

Enjoy

HI.

You could have a look at the osstmm : Open Source Security 
Testing Methodology Manual.  A very good doc for Sec audit. 
Available for free at www.osstmm.org, or perhaps 
www.ideahamster.org...  I think they changed the name not so long ago,
but you should be able to find the link easely to the new address.

A very nice and recommended reading.  They give a good description and
follow some international standards.. Should you not find it, send me a
mail off-list, I will send you a copy.

Regards,

MAx

Hi
 
I've been asked to perform a security audit on a site (Stock Broker) and
to report on all Site, network, server and software issues that I
encounter
 
I have a pretty decent idea of what I'm looking for, but if anyone has
any links to, or templates of what you would find in a security audit
could you please let me know or send me a copy?
 
 
 
Thanks
 
Dallas
