Answer Posted / guest

Answer: D

The extent to which data will be collected during an IS
audit should be related directly to the scope and purpose of
the audit. An audit with a narrow purpose and scope would
result most likely in less data collection, than an audit
with a wider purpose and scope. The scope of an IS audit
should not be constrained by the ease of obtaining the
information or by the auditor's familiarity with the area
being audited. Collecting all the required evidence is a
required element of an IS audit and the scope of the audit
should not be limited by the auditee's ability to find
relevant evidence.
