Sarbanes Oxley (SOX) Entity Level and Soft Controls

Entity level controls (ELCs) are often difficult to identify and even more difficult to assess.  Soft controls are similar to entity level controls. They do not lend themselves to normal validation processes.  Assessors must often utilize interviews, questionnaires and observations or other unique methods.

Other courses have looked at top-down risk assessment (RA) and discussed ELCs and some methods for assessment. This course delves further into understanding approaches to assessing the design and operating effectiveness of ELCs and soft controls.  We cover methods and alternatives to measuring and assessing ELCs and soft controls.
