Limited Visibility
Management lacks a complete inventory of systems, devices, software and technology responsibilities.
IT Auditing and Compliance
Understand your technology risks, controls and compliance gaps.
Structured reviews of infrastructure, security, access, licensing, backups, policies and operational controls to help organisations reduce risk and improve accountability.
IT Audit Overview
Clear findings across your technology environment.
An IT audit reviews how technology is managed, protected and used across the organisation.
Hozit assesses infrastructure, access, cybersecurity, software, backups, support processes and documented controls to identify risks and improvement priorities.

Audit Challenges
Technology risk is difficult to manage without reliable evidence.
Organisations often depend on systems and suppliers without a complete view of access, licensing, backups, security controls or operational responsibilities.
Excessive Access
Users and administrators may retain permissions that are no longer required.
Licence Exposure
Software may be unlicensed, under-licensed, duplicated or assigned inefficiently.
Backup Uncertainty
Backups may exist without verified retention, monitoring or restore testing.
Security Gaps
Weak configurations, outdated systems and missing controls increase cyber risk.
Missing Documentation
Policies, procedures, diagrams and support records may be incomplete or outdated.
Audit Capabilities
A structured review of systems, controls and responsibilities.
The audit scope is defined according to the organisation, technology environment, contractual obligations and required outcomes.
IT Asset Review
Review devices, servers, network equipment, applications and assigned ownership.
Infrastructure Audit
Assess networks, servers, cloud services, connectivity and technical dependencies.
Cybersecurity Review
Evaluate endpoint protection, firewalls, identity, patching, monitoring and security practices.
Access-Control Review
Review user accounts, administrator privileges, shared credentials and access processes.
Software Licence Audit
Compare installed and assigned software against available licences and agreements.
Backup and Recovery Review
Assess backup coverage, retention, storage, monitoring and restore readiness.
Policy Review
Review available security, acceptable-use, access and technology-management policies.
Supplier and Contract Review
Review support agreements, service responsibilities, renewals and vendor dependencies.
Audit Reporting
Provide findings, risks, priorities and recommended improvement actions.
Business Benefits
Better control over technology risk and investment.
Audit findings help management prioritise improvements based on evidence rather than assumptions.
Improved Visibility
Understand which systems, assets, licences and controls are currently in place.
Risk Identification
Identify weaknesses before they cause outages, security incidents or compliance problems.
Stronger Governance
Clarify ownership, responsibilities, approvals and technology-management processes.
Cost Control
Identify duplicated tools, unused licences and avoidable technology expenditure.
Improved Security
Prioritise practical controls that reduce exposure across users, systems and data.
Clear Roadmap
Turn findings into phased remediation and technology-improvement actions.
Audit Process
A structured process from scope definition to remediation planning.
The audit is designed to produce practical findings that management and technical teams can act on.
Define Scope
Confirm the systems, locations, departments, risks and compliance areas included in the review.
Collect Evidence
Gather inventories, configurations, policies, licences, contracts and operational records.
Assess Controls
Review infrastructure, access, security, backups, software and support processes.
Identify Findings
Document control gaps, risks, inconsistencies and improvement opportunities.
Report
Present findings, risk levels, priorities and recommended corrective actions.
Plan Remediation
Create a practical roadmap for addressing high-priority issues and improving controls.
