Definitely go with the external auditor. Trying to fake your way through an IT audit? That's like me trying to perform brain surgery - it ain't gonna end well!

I'm going with Option C. Trying to wing it yourself or have a junior do it would be a recipe for disaster. Might as well bring in the professionals and do it right.

Assigning the engagement to a senior auditor who researches the company's IT infrastructure thoroughly sounds like a good plan as well.

Hmm, I'm not so sure. Assigning it to a senior auditor who can research the IT infrastructure might work too. At least that way the audit would be done by someone familiar with the company.

I agree with Burma. Outsourcing the engagement to an external provider is the most prudent choice here. The internal audit team shouldn't risk compromising the quality of the review just to keep it in-house.
