Risk management was analyzed in a recent report by AuditBoard. According to the report, the top 2024 risk cited by internal audit leaders is cyber and data security, with more than 80% of respondents giving it the top spot for expected audit efforts in 2024.

The survey also reveals the use of internal audit strategic plans is lagging, with one in five functions reporting comprehensive, well-documented strategic plans.
