Re: Shared Security/Audit Position

Who authors policies and standards might come into play.  It would be a
conflict of interest for the audit role to author those, so if your
security group does, it might be sticky.

Hi!

I was wondering if anyone on the list has had experience with a shared
position between their internal audit and information security offices.
 We are investigating this possibility to assist our Audit department.
We are currently trying to determine what, if any, job responsibilities
would not become conflicts of interest between the two roles.  Does
anyone have any experience in this?  Thanks!
