AATU webinar on Forensics Audit: What is forensic audit?

Fraud gives rise to a forensics audit investigation. Organisations will require forensics audit services when there’s a need to ascertain loss occasioned by a fraudulent event. In a virtual presentation led by CPA Mustapha B Mugisa, Mr. Strategy at the Association of Accounting Technicians of Uganda (AATU), attendees were enlightened on various aspects of forensics audit. The session covered an array of topics including: a) identification of fraud types through case studies, b) understanding the essence of a forensics audit, c) differences between financial audits and forensics audit, d) Forensics audit methodology, tools, and techniques with a special focus on digital forensics.
