Audit evidence
The information that proves a control operated, used by auditors, examiners and boards.
Overview
Audit evidence includes the records tested, the result, approvals, exceptions and their resolution. Strong evidence is complete, dated, attributable and tamper-evident.
It connects most directly to Evidence package, Audit trail and Control.
