GC6: Identify at least three audit procedures for review and tests of compliance for
HARDWARE CONTROLS

1. Reviewing the system documentation to ensure that it accurately reflects the current system
configuration.
The first step in auditing hardware controls is to review the system documentation. The system
documentation should be reviewed to ensure that it accurately reflects the current system
configuration. This includes confirming that all hardware components are accounted for and that their
descriptions match the actual hardware. This helps to ensure that the documentation is accurate and
up-to-date, and that all hardware components are accounted for. The auditor will confirm that the
descriptions of the hardware components match the actual hardware.
 
2. Inspecting the physical hardware to ensure that it matches the system documentation.
The next step is to inspect the physical hardware. This helps to ensure that all hardware components are
accounted for and that they are properly configured.  This includes confirming that all hardware
components are present and accounted for and that they are properly configured. The auditor will
confirm that all hardware components are present and that they match the system documentation.
 
3. Testing the functionality of the hardware components to ensure that they are working properly.
After reviewing the documentation and inspecting the hardware, the auditor will test the functionality
of the hardware components. This helps to ensure that the hardware is working properly. This may
include testing the power supply, the network connectivity, the storage devices, and the like. The
auditor may test the power supply, the network connectivity, the storage devices, and other
components.
 
4. Checking the security settings of the hardware components to ensure that they are properly
configured.
The auditor will also check the security settings of the hardware components.  This includes confirming
that the correct permissions are in place for access to the hardware and that the data stored on the
hardware is properly encrypted. This helps to ensure that the correct permissions are in place for access
to the hardware and that the data stored on the hardware is properly encrypted.
 
5. Reviewing the logs of the hardware components to ensure that they are being properly monitored.
The auditor will review the logs of the hardware components to ensure that they are being properly
monitored. This includes confirming that all hardware events are being logged and that the logs are
being reviewed on a regular basis. This helps to ensure that all hardware events are being logged and
that the logs are being reviewed on a regular basis.

6. Testing the backup and recovery procedures for the hardware components to ensure that they are
working properly.
The auditor will also test the backup and recovery procedures for the hardware components.  This
includes confirming that the backups are being performed on a regular basis and that the data can be
successfully restored in the event of a hardware failure. This helps to ensure that the backups are being
performed on a regular basis and that the data can be successfully restored in the event of a hardware
failure.

7. Reviewing the maintenance records for the hardware components to ensure that they are being
properly maintained.
The auditor will review the maintenance records for the hardware components to ensure that they are
being properly maintained.  This includes confirming that the hardware is being serviced on a regular
basis and that any problems that have been identified are being addressed in a timely manner. This
helps to ensure that the hardware is being serviced on a regular basis and that any problems that have
been identified are being addressed in a timely manner.
 
8. Checking the warranty status of the hardware components to ensure that they are still covered by a
valid warranty.
The auditor will also check the warranty status of the hardware components.  This includes confirming
that the warranty is still in effect and that it covers all of the hardware components that are in use. This
helps to ensure that the warranty is still in effect and that it covers all of the hardware components that
are in use.
 
9. Reviewing the insurance coverage for the hardware components to ensure that they are properly
insured.
The auditor will review the insurance coverage for the hardware components to ensure that they are
properly insured. This includes confirming that the insurance policy covers all of the hardware
components that are in use and that the coverage is adequate. This helps to ensure that the insurance
policy covers all of the hardware components that are in use and that the coverage is adequate.
 
10. Reviewing the disposal procedures for the hardware components to ensure that they are being
properly handled.
Finally, the auditor will review the disposal procedures for the hardware components to ensure that
they are being properly handled. This includes confirming that the data on the hardware is being
securely erased before the hardware is disposed of and that the disposal is being handled in accordance
with all applicable laws and regulations. This helps to ensure that the data on the hardware is being
securely erased before the hardware is disposed of and that the disposal is being handled in accordance
with all applicable laws and regulations.
