MILWAUKEE, Aug. 29, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Jefferson Wells, a leading professional services firm specializing in Finance & Accounting, Internal Audit, Risk & Compliance, and Tax, and part of the ManpowerGroup (NYSE: MAN) family of brands, released the results of its eighth annual Internal Audit Priorities Survey. The survey reveals that while cybersecurity remains the top risk, the rise in the usage of Generative AI tools is escalating in risk priority for IA leaders and audit committees. Despite this, only 26% of organizations have fully integrated Generative AI standards into their governance framework, indicating a need for more comprehensive controls.

Consequently, 37% of organizations are planning to increase staff to meet the heightened demand for these technology skills - the first significant increase in internal audit departments planning to expand their teams since 2020.
