Description: Operational audits are assessments conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of security controls in cloud environments. These audits are essential for ensuring that organizations maintain a robust security posture and comply with applicable regulations and standards. Through a systematic approach, the processes, policies, and technologies implemented are reviewed to identify vulnerabilities and areas for improvement. Operational audits not only focus on technical infrastructure but also consider human and organizational aspects, such as staff training and the security culture within the organization. This type of audit allows organizations to detect deviations from best practices and ensure that security controls are aligned with business objectives. Additionally, they contribute to customer and business partner trust by demonstrating a commitment to information security. In an environment where cyber threats are becoming increasingly sophisticated, operational audits become an essential tool for risk management and the protection of sensitive data in cloud environments.
