With the adoption of digital technology, internal audit transformation can increase audit accuracy and thoroughness, reduce the risk of human error, and enable fraud identification more effectively. In addition, technology also facilitates the implementation of more proactive and adaptive risk-based audit practices, allowing internal audit to focus on the most critical areas and provide significant added value.

This article details effective implementation strategies, as well as providing views on how organizations can optimize the potential of digital technology to improve the quality of financial reporting treatment. Thus, this article aims to provide in-depth insight into the role of digital technology in the transformation of internal audit and its impact on the treatment of financial statements, identify the associated benefits and challenges, and provide guidance for companies wishing to adopt such technology effectively.
