This thesis consists of four individual research papers that examine the intersection of technology and internal auditing. The first paper investigates the transition to remote internal audits because of COVID-19 at the beginning of the 2020-decade. The second paper studies the perceived effects of using software and data analytics to conduct internal audits. The third paper uses a qualitative methodology to identify risks and challenges with robotic process automation (RPA). The fourth paper develops a framework of key internal control and governance principles for the use of RPA. Overall, this thesis provides valuable contributions to practice and the academic literature.
