Answer: B
The primary reason for conducting IS audits is to determine
whether a system safeguards assets and maintains data
integrity. Examining books of accounts is one of the
processes involved in IS audit but it is not the primary
purpose. Detecting frauds could be a result of an IS audit
but is not the purpose for which an IS audit is performed.
