( Pp. 94-97)

Task.

Originality. The study conducted by the authors revealed that the research nature of modern audit is associated with the fact that modern users of its services are spoiled by the diversity that the market of consulting services offers them. They are used to the fact that digital products and services are available here and now, easy to use and secure. In addition, the perception of digital products is influenced by globalization. Technologies that have existed for two or three years and have been successfully used more than once may lose the interest of consumers against the background of new solutions. And such speed changes mean there is always a risk of being late. In such a competition, a misjudgment of the market situation, a delay in market release, or deficiencies affecting quality can be detrimental to the product. The approach proposed in the article to the audit of information systems allows to exclude these difficulties arising from it consumers.
