The Top 2023 Audit Plan Hot Spots

Each year, the Gartner audit research team gathers data from client discussions, audit planning documents and secondary sources to determine the trends in emerging risks that audit departments will focus on over the next 6 to 12 months. These audit hot spots are typically top-of-mind issues for boards, audit committees and executives. Audit leaders use this information to benchmark audit plan coverage and educate key stakeholders on emerging risks. This year’s report includes 12 risks across IT, operational, financial and strategic themes, led by cyberthreats, IT governance, data governance and third-party risk management. Join this complimentary webinar to get insights into the full list of audit hot spots, so you can better prepare your 2023 strategy with the top-of-mind issues for boards, audit committees and executives in organizations of all sizes across industries and geographic locations including emerging risks and evolving trends.
