Audit and assurance issues The current auditing standards are providing no guidance how to provide assurance on information in electronic format Current audit opinion is focusing on document level (fair view) Instance document is a dataset, presentation via a style sheet, so no fair view?? So we need assurance on data-level?? We have no taxonomy for the audit opinion or guidance how to connect the opinion to an instance document, could be the FS No requirements yet for integrity and authenticity of instances documents No guidance yet about signing audit opinions and validations of the signature
