Exam AAIA Topic 2 Question 266 Discussion

Actual exam question for ISACA's AAIA exam
Question #: 266
Topic #: 2
Which of the following is the MOST effective way an IS auditor could use generative AI to plan an audit of a new database storing transactional data?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

Generative AI excels at synthesizing large datasets and technical documentation into understandable insights.
The AAIA™ Study Guide recommends leveraging generative AI to identify domain-specific risks and control considerations by analyzing complex environments and correlating them with industry risk patterns.
"AI can assist auditors during planning by generating tailored risk profiles for technologies under review, helping prioritize audit focus and scoping." While summarizing interviews (D) and creating diagrams (B) are helpful, only C directly informs audit planning with actionable intelligence. A (separation of duties) is a later-stage control assessment.
